Mr.. Fordney said: .sThe gentleman
from Indiana would LEAD the people of
this country to believe the Presidelt's
position on the new tariff bill has
been inconsistent: that he changed his
position since the passage of the new
law. President Taft stood fer the rates
fixed in the Payne bill when it became
a law and he stands for them now His
signing the bill is the best evidences
that he stood for il then, and he now
states It IS the best tariff bill ever
placed on our statute books. That is

it"

new moIalu RULES
MAKE 4 SAFER GAME.
SIX CHANGES ADOPTED ~ CON-
MITTEE FOR THE INTER.
COLLEGIATE GRIDIRoN
CONTEST0.

CATER football and the eliminationof
y the danger of having the gridiron
game wiped of the list Of sports at
the big colleges are aimed at In the
six changes made in the rules by the
intercollegiate football rules commit
tee which met in New York a few
days ago.
The first change adopted was the
removal of the present restriction that
a runner receiving the ball directly
from the snap back must run five
yards to one side. This, in the opin-
ion of the committee, will give the
quarter back greater opportunities to
make good runs; will offer an oppor-
tunity for quicker plays, and create
a need for the exercise of more STRAIT
egg.
The second change provides that
seven men be kept by the offense on
the line of scrimmage. This will pre-
vent the drawing back of hnemen for
offensive plays and is q direct blow
at mass plays.
The third change is the prohibition
of the diving tackle.
The fourth change consists In the
division of each half into two periods
of Is minutes each. This change is
made SO that there may be better op-
portunity to determine the physical
condition Of players.
Another clause under this fourth d.
vision directs that player compelled
to leave the game may return during
q subsequent quarter II he RECEIVERS
sufficiently.
The fifth change provides that no
pushing or pulling Of the runner with
the ball is to be allowed.
In analysing the source of Injuries
to players the committee found that
the diving tackle and the repetition of
massed attacks at one point were the
chief causes Of harm.
The sixth change prescribes that an
onside kick must advance the ball 20
yards from the line of scrimmage.
That is, if the ball strikes the ground
short Of 20 yards the offense becomes
offside. This rule is also aimed at
mass plays.
Having made these six changes to
throw safeguards around the game,
the committee took up discussion of
two plans for directing the style Of
playing and strengthening the offense
sufficiently to balance the new oppor-
tunities for defense. The first plan
contains two main features-f1rst, the
limitation of the forward pass to ter
ritory behind the line Of scrimmage;
second, limitation of the width OF
scrimmage lines.

SON OF A Millionaire

Another millionaire's son wilfSbre
into the big leagues as professional
baseball player this season. Abe
Rachlin, the Newark boy who was ia
ken to Southern Pines with a half
dozen other southpaws for a tryout
by the Philadelphia nationals, is re.
puted to be the son of millionaire,
and while his family is not anxious
to have him play the game for coin,
they want to see him make good at
anything he attempts. And he is
stuck on baseball. 1t is said his father
has offered him 5000 for every game
he wins If he makes good. -.
Rachlin is 20 years of age and
played in the Newark City league last
season. He has lots of speed and
good curves. Johnny Miller, the Pitts.
burg second baseman, claims that Abe
is a better hitter than he is, and says
that If he doesn't make good az q
pitcher he can play the outfeld.
Rachlin will be the second million.
