| That increasin g the number of downs and decreasing the yardage can only mean a return to the old line pounding football game sfs the op-nIon Of Parke H. Davis. who writes in the Princeton Alumni Weekly. He deplores the sug- gestion for further sweeping changes in the rules.
 MT. Davis sums up the situation as follows:
 Tt will be recalled that in 1909 the injuries and fatalities of the sport were so numerous that the existence of the game was threatened. So far as Princetomians are mostly eoncrend the acutens.ss this opposition to football occurred in our own faculty room, where, it is reported. motion to abolish the game was lost by only a few notes.
 Through the efforts of James H. each injury of that season, precise and accura -te data were obtained by the committee as to the causes of the in- 5uries. These were, first, interlocked forward Kasses. and. third, flying tackles.
 Two Plays Wiped Out.
 s.Interl0eled intererence and flying tory abolition of these plays. The sub- ject of forward passes, however, en- gagged tire committee for ten days and for a large portion of the intervening nights. The difficulty lay in the com plexity of the play, which is not iso- lated like a flying tackle or an in- terlocke,d interference, but is inter mixed with several other plays. For instance, if end rushes are injured Gas many were in 1909) while attempting to recover a forward pass. it is easy to say that an end going down the field to recover a forward pass ought not to be blocked. The query, how ever, instantly arises, as 1t arose be- fore the rules committee, how is it to be krIown, before the pass actually is delivered, that the end is endeavor1ng to recover a forward pass? He may be ejoing down the field to cover a ppnt or to recover an OnSide kick, or, more importaBe~ ~stili, he may be going down to interfere for a run following fake forward pass
 Protecting the End Rush.
 @'Hence, it is obvious that any rule recover a forward pass also will in uarfere with the defence to a punt, an anside kick and a running play.
 "The only solution of the situation, therefore, was the establishment of a zone within which Soffensive players blocked except where acting as inter ferers in an attempt to advance the ball by a rush. It is apparent that forward passes must be limited to this zone of protection"
 But there was another considera- ton which favored a limitation upon forward passes. In 1909 a number of players developed who could throw forward passes accurately from 45 to 65 yards. By first employing two and three backward passes it was possible to get every available man down the field to participate in the recovery of these long forward passes. This manoeuvre threatened to do away with

Excavations to Be Made at
Once; There Will Be No
Further Delay

Excavation work on the new Hotel
Paso Del Norte will be continued as
soon as the temporary foundation IN
der the building which adjoins the site
on the north is completed. The execa-
walton along West San Antonio street
which was ordered stopped by the city
officials because Of the fact that the
new street was not clear of houses to
Davis street, will be left as it Is and
the concrete piers will be set inside
of the street line so that the orders
of the mayor and city officials will not
be disobeyed. The excavation on the
new street was under the sidewalk
and will have no direct effect upon
the work of the hotel proper although
it will make it more inconvenient to do
after the street is cleared and the
necessary permission is given for the
work to continue.
A plan was suggested by which the
hotel company would give a bond to
cover the cost of clearing the street
of distractions on the lower end and in
this way get permission to continue
with the excavation under the West
San Antonio street sidewalk. But this
plan was abandoned and the work Of
excavation viii continue Independent
