erably, The ball may cross the line of
scrimmage at any point, but the player
making the pass must ne at least FIVE
yards back or the line when the pass
is made. Again, If a forward pass
crosses line twenty yards in advance
of the spot where the ball was in play,
before touching the ground or player,
IT is Illegal. and becomes dead as il
crosses the line. In former years such
an Illegal pass was penalzed by the loss
of fifteen yards from the point where
the ball was put in play. Now, if the
ottense occurs before n third down, the
offending side shall put the ball in plav
at the spot whence the pass was made,
and the play counts as q down. The
points 10 be gained to remain the same
If the offeDse occurs after third down
the ball goes TO the opposite side at the
spot from which it was put in play
The penalty for incompletcd forward
passes being removed, and the ten yard
rule still in force, forward passes will
be resorted to more than ever, but the
danger to the player receiving the pass
is entirely eliminated BY the following
rule.
'No player Of either side while in
the act of catching a forward pass shall
he tackled, thrown. pushed, pulled

The flying tackle is spectacular in an
open field, but dangerous. IL results

NEW YORK, Sept. lO.-''There will
be racing in the east in 1911 and for
many years TO come. Racing is not
dead; it is not even sleeping. 1t is suf-
fering from too much amputation. due
to the part Of the over Jealous legis-
lative surgeons. But it is convalescing
and viii soon come forth better and
stronger than ever.
In these words General Stephen San
ford, called the "Nestor of the Ameri-
can Turf tcrsely told the prospects
for racing in the future. He is SO years
young and spoke as enthusiastically
regarding the sport as any man of ten
der years. With intermingEngs of wit,
and libe. which made light and airy
his talk this great patron of the turf,
the leading breeder Of the Empire state
said many things which are of interest
TO the lovers Of a blue. blooded horse.
As he sat on the porch Of his trainer Is
cottage, surrounded by his many thor
oughbreds, telling his story, he was so
strong and youthful mentally, that his
words seemed to give the lie TO his age.
He had no apologies TO make for racing
and none for its Incidental auxiliary,
betting. He told of tho attacks made
words straight from the shoulder. A
good fighter all his life, he has never
asked for quarter from the enemies of
the turf And with him 1T is "thumbs
down. for his opponents.

all of the tracks-Aqueduct Jamaica,
Belmont Park, Gravesend Shecpshead

tinued General Sanford. "The cancel
lation Of the fall meetings Of the Met

diculous racing bills left no alternative.

the kidnapping of Louis BIerbauer.
star second baseman, from the Phila-
delphia Athletics away back in 1883 or
1889. At that time there was work
ing agreement between the National
league and the old American associa-
ton by which no club in either organi-
zation was permitted TO reserve more
than fifteen players at the close Of a
season. The owners Of the Athletics, in
the American association, desired to
keep sixteen of their men, but as only
fifteen could be legally reserved the
only way open was to leave one name
off the list and take a chance on no
other club picking up the player
Accordingly the Athletic management
failed 10 name Bierbauer in its reserve
list, hoping the omission would be over
looked and that Bierbausr would be
signed over as new player. But a
friend Of the Pittsburg club noticed
that Bjerbauer 8 name was missing from
the Athletic list, and as Louis was a
much sought player at that time the
friend quietly told Horace Phillips.

lips set to work at once, but fearing
that the omission Of Bierbauer IS name
to appear was not n publishers error,
but the owners of the Athletics had
really failed to reserve the player.
This made Bierbauer free agent to
deal with any club he desired and Phil
lips proceeded TO Erie, Pa, where Louis
spent the winter months at his home.
His trip was successful. Bierbauer was
willing TO listen, tempting offer was
made. and when Phillips returned he
brought with him the players signed
for the following season.
