Go to Nearest Official.


II will not be necessary this year ioi
a substitute player to run all over the
field TO find particular oficla! 10
whom to report. The moment that the
substitute is assigned to duty he may
race to the nearest official, and II Is the
duty of. the latter to stop the game untii
the substitute is safely in the team
The time limit has been better dehheu
in regard to fair catch The rules now
state explicitly that. if a. fair catch Is be-
ing made when time expires, the game
shall be prolonged until the side making
the catch shall have opportunity to try
for goal For instance, if punt out
was being made from behind the Inc
and the ball happened to be in midalr
inst as time expired, the team in possess
sion of the ball is not to lose the game
on the moment that the watch points 10
the expiration of the contest, put IS
granted the right to kick goal. which is
but fair as kicking goal is really aces
sory 10 and continuous with one play
The team which loses the toss at the
beginning of the game Is given the op-
tion at the beginning of the second haif
of kicking off the ball or taking the goal.
In other words. the team is not COM
pelled to kick off against head wind
If the captain of the eleven prefers to
take the goal with the wind in his favor
and let the other side have the kick on
twice in the same afternoon.

THE NEW FOOTBALL
AZ SEEN nv GLANCE AT THE REVISED
RULES GOVERNING THE CANE THIS YEAR
Benefits to the players.

When a football game was divided INTO
quarters, by the subdivision of the
halves, il struck more than one of the
football students as If the rule were
more a burden to the players than re-
lief ] never could tell the exact idea or
the installation of the periods of rest
other than that they were thrown in by
one of the charitable and humane SOUS
who revised the football code on the
ground that the players needed time in
which to reenperate after the eSertion OF
is minutes of play
In any event the experiment was made
sThen one really cold afternoon was
quite sufficient TO demonstrate how UNI
necessary it was The players were com
pelled to stand around shivering in their
~blankets and were more likely to become
sin. from exposure than If they had not
bce; compelled to take an enforced rest
The intermission between the first ana
second quarters and that between tife
third and fourth quarters has been re-
aueed to one minute this year. II is
enough All that the players need Is
tt,ne To run from one side of the held 10
the other and assume their positions
That prevents them from becoming
chilled and continues the game with the
men in the best of condition to follow II
TO the finish.
