PASSES OF sos
FOR GRIDIRON THIS FALL
Drastic Revision of Football Rules VIII Bring
About Revival of Open Play Prac-
ticed Many Years Ago.

The appearance OF the football rules
for 1910 once more invites attention TO
the gridiron. True, six weeks must elapse
before the moleskin suits come forth
from the lockers and the lines Of lime
are painted upon scnool and college
swards. With the publication Of the
rules, however, the season really opens,
/ for with the rule book in hand every
strategic genius of the gridlron will fur
row his brows In long and laboIious por-
ing over each word and phrase Of the
code. seeking to invent some novel tacti-
cal evolution that next November may
bring victory TO his alma mater and wide
spread fame to its inventor. Football es-
sentially is a game OF strategy, more
elastic and profound than chess, only less
elastic and profound than the tactics Of
actual war. In the radical and revplu-
tionary revision of the rules presented
for 1910 football statisticians, players and
spectators will find new game.
Statisticians OF the gridIron contend
that football is no more dangerous than
baseball. and they point to the fact that
the fatalities upon the diamond during
three weeks OF last April equaled the
record of football last autumn for ten
weeks. while for minor injuries the record
OF baseball is as high as % TO l. Not
withstanding any such comparison, the
rules committee Of football resolutely de-
termined 10 reach and eradicate the dan
gers of its own game. This task the
committee has performed, instituting a
reform. the most drastic which football
yet has encountered. On this revision the
committee did not work upon theory. Il
had before it precise and accurate data
as to the cause OF the injuries that
marked the season Of 1909. This data
indicated as the offending features mass
play, interlocked interference. flying
tackles, and the recovery Of forward
passes.
The dangers Of the flying tackle were
not difficult to remove. since it was pos
sible to remove the flying tackle itself
without any effect whatever upon any
other play. as tackling is a separate fea-
ture of the game and not connected or
correlated with ether playing systems.
The committee simply has ruled that
hereafter no player shall tackle an OBJ
ponent without having at the time at
least one foot upon the ground. Il was
the mass play and the forward pass that
occupied the committee FOR seven DAYS
and a large part Of the Intervening
nights

Princeton. with the University Of Chi
cago, proposed as a remedy for massed
interference an extension Of rule II so
as to require seven men OF the offensive
side TO stand upon the line Of scrimmage
and 10 prohibit players OF this side from

another by hands. arms. or body either

the familiar spectacle of twenty years
standing Of player being whirled
through the line. After prolonged debate
and considerable experimentation this
proposition was adopted This radical
change means the return of that style of
game which characterized the late sos.
The rush line viii probably play a widely
extended line this fall. and the man with
the ball at all times viii be in full view
Of the spectators With the abolition Of
flying tackles. line plunging will be the
same as end running. quick dash
through an open line.
1t was obvious to the COMMITTEE that
this drastic>change would reduce the Of
fensive strength Of the game more than
half and that it was incumbent to re-
store in some way the equilibrium Of the
game which must maintain at all times
so far as the rules are concerned, n fair
struggle between the offense and the de-
tense and thus prevent scoreless or heav-
ily scoring games. This condition the
committee met by removing the restric-
ton upon the forward pass and the quar-
ter back run. which hitherto has required
each OF these plays 70 be executed five
yards distant from the center. The effect
OF the second Of these changes means the
disappearance or the position Of quarter
back, since under the new rules any back
may carry the ball through the line at
any point upon a snap direct from cen
ter. If the quarter back goes the present
method of swapping the ball will go.
Swapping the ball is defined under the
rules as putting the ball I'm play with a
continuous motion OF the hand or foot"
Since the quarter back will be found this
fall in the line or group Of backs. It is
certain that the coaching genius Of the
country will devise better way Of send
ing the ball back from center than the
present method which has existed for
thirty-one years. This change means a
fast. open. and running game, in which
the premium no longer will be placed up
on players Of gigantic bulk, but IN which
the ideal man will be the player OF mid
die weight, rect Of foot and keen Of mind.
1t means the return Of the beautiful
passes Of the SOS. when each man as he
was tackled passed the ball 10 an asso-
ciate for a further advance rather than
hugging IL 10 his chest and falling down
upon II. Strange 20 say, the unrestricted
quarter back run is not new. 1t came in
with the Rugby union code in 1S76. and
lasted unchanged until the intercollegiate
convention Of October L, 1850. which pre-
scribed The man who first receives the
ball from the snap back shall be called
the quarter back. and he shall not rush
forward with the BAH under penalty Of
foul"
The investigation into the accidents OF
last fall disclosed the fact that many
were due TO exhaustion. This presents a
condition that Is beyond rule makers 10
