FORWARD PASS
IS RETAINED
Football Rules Committee Will Not
Abolish New Style Scoring Play
Ten Yards Gain Again the Rule.

NEW YORK. May l4.--While the
drafting OF the 1910 changes In the
intercollegiate football rules has been
left to a committee consisting Of Wal.
ter Camp, OF Yale; DR.. Carl Williams.
of Pennsylvania, and Percy ID. Haugh.
ton, OF Harvard, the substance or those
changes has been agreed upon. The
rules committee has adjourned for the
year, leaving the detail work to the
subcommittee named.
The forward pass is retained, al.
though In a slightly changed form
The player making the pass must be
five yards back OF the line Of scrim-
mage and the pass must be received
within 20 yards Of the scrimmage line.
Only ends and backs may receive the
pass and a back must have been one
yard behind the scrimmage line when
the ball was put in play in order to
be eligible to receive IT. Defensive
players may not interfere with a
player making catch except in an
actual effort to take the ball In the air.
In case the forward pass is not com.
pleted, IL IL be a first or second down,
the ball Is again put In play on the
same spot. On third down. the op.
posing side gets the ball on the spot
where ii was put in play.
Five yards loss is the penalty to be
awarded in case any player attempts
to crawl with the ball after being
downed. Backfield players on defense
may use their hands only on oppon-
ents' bodies to get at the man with

FIVE yards beyond the line OF scrlm.
mage, when they may play as before.
The distance to be gained In three
downs is retained at ten yards, instead
OF eight as had been suggested.

The Chicago White Sox will not be
alone on their California iaunt next
spring. Their good condition has In
spired Owner Taylor, OF the Boston
Americans, to plan a similar trip for
his club In 1911. San Francisco, Los
Angeles, Fresno and Redlands are al
ready billed. This year the Red Sox
did their preliminary work at Hot
Springs. Cincinnati will have that re-
sort without opposition next year.
This rainy spring has been lighter
on the Tigers than on other American
league clubs To date, they have
played more games than any OF their
rivals, except the Nationals. The
White Sox have had the worst going
with eighteen postponements, OF which
only two have been played of SO far.
Athletics have played five games less
than the Tigers and Yankees four less
while Cleveland and st. Louis have

This Is an advantage to the Tigers
as they will not be mixed up In SO
