Field Goals Will Be Fewer.

Field goals will be fewer this fall.
The rule which stipulates that team
has an option of rushing the ball or
kicking from the 25-yard line after a
touchback or after ball is sent over
the goal line in a kickoff, puts a new
aspect on the booting game.
Frequently team, aided by a
strong wind, will kick the ball over
their opponents goal line and the
latter, handicapped by this same wind,
will kick out such short distance
that by making free catch the first
team is In a position to easily kick a
field goal. 1t was thought unfair to
compel team to kick under such cir
cumstances, and so they will have the
option of rushing the ball.
Then the value of the goal from the
field has ben reduced from to 3.

BRESNAHAN PREPARES HIS
TEAM FOR NEXT SEASON
ST. Louis Manager and Catcher Hopes
to Build Up Strong Outfit
for Cardinals.

While Roger Bresnahan hasn't lost
sight of the fact that with hard play.
ing and a bit of baseball luck his team
may finish at the head of the second
division, he is giving much more at
tention now to the building up of his
forces for next years campaign
"Bres' has had an entirely satisfac-
tory season with the Cardinals, and
the fans of st. Louis are sharing his
confidence that he will make a good
showing next year.
The team he started the year with
was slated for the bottom, and no bet
ter place. BY his ability as a headyr
aggressive, resourceful player and
manager he kept the club fighting
toward the top of the second division.
and even at this late day in the season
step up in the standing is not be-
yond hope.
With anything like a well-balanced
team next year Bresnahan will make a
strong bid for place in the upper cir
cles. His recent trades with Pittsburg
and Cincinnati have been with a view
to distribute the team strength, so
that his combination will present a
balanced and smooth working defense.
and a steady, consistent offensive
front to the enemy.
Fine showings have been made, pen
nants won, with teams lacking indI-
vidual stars Infinitely better and
more satisfactory campaigns are
waged in baseball by teams that are
of certain uniform excellence than
by teams with strong and mediocre
players alternating in the lineup.
1t was to bring his weak spots up to
higher level and equalize the pres
sure of his machine on the opposing
forces that BreSnahan sacrificed bril-
liant players like Byrne and Charles.
He got for them, in Barbeau, Storke
and Mowrey, trained and efficient men
who, under his leadership, should fit
finely into well-built, well-rounded,
strong and vigorous combination.
He believes that the acquisition of
Mowrey offers him a chance to round
out the outfield Ellis and Evans
have made good there, and he intends
to see what Ed Konetchy, his hard
hitting first baseman, can do on the
outer breastwork. Konetchy has a
strong wing and can cover lot of
ground.
Storke will be tried at first base,
where he filed in for Pittsburg, and if
the plan works out as "Bres' figures
it, he will have the nucleus of his next
years line of battle

How large is a football? Is it the
size of quinine capsule or a goose
egg or djrigible balloon? The of
fetal football rule book for 1909 is
out, but, as usual, it fails to answer
this momentous question.
The rule about the ball is positive
on some points. The ball must be
leather and must inclose an inflated
rubber bladder, and it must have the
shape of probate speroid, which is
much the shape a goose egg would be
if both ends were small.
But careful study of the 81 pages
of the rule book fails to shed light
on the question, How large is a foot
ball or how large may football be?"
The book has this to say about the
subject:
''The football used shall be Of
leather inclosing an inflated rubber
bladder. The ball shall have the
shape Of probate speroid."
That is all. The ball is referred to
frequently, but there is nothing in the
rules to indicate it's size. This is one
of the points of the game left to the
unwritten law
The rule makers are very specific
about the size of the baseball used in
league games. 1t must weigh just so
much and be just so great in circum-
ference. But the collegians who
yearly tinker the football rules left
the matter of size and weight of the
ball to the manufacturers. A few
years ago a foxy Carlisle Indian ran
almost the length of the field at Cam
bridge for a touchdown against the
Harvard team. The Indian had Sc
creted the ball under his sweater, and
in the dusk of the evening the Grim
son tacklers looked in vain for the
football.
Suppose a team used very small
ball in the attack? The defense would
object, but what could the umpire
do? He would consult the rules care
fully provided by the rules commit
tee. Would he get help? He would
not. He would run into that stuff
about the speroid, but he would learn
nothing about the size of football
Possibly he could attack the shape of
the new ball and get verdict
against it. Just think how the peo-
pie with the new ball could run for
touchdowns-one touchdown at least!
Also, consider how the new ball
would revolutioniae the forward pass.
With the goose-egg ball introduced
at the proper moment-for the rules
say nothing about keeping the same
sized ball through the game-the
back felders could get off some
throws that would make the long-dis-
lance baseball throwing record look
scared. Then we could see some for
ward passes that were never dreamed
of by the rule makers.
Doubtless they will continue to play
the game with the usual ball, but it
will be custom and not the statutes
of the game which will govern.
