CHANGES IN FOOTBALL RULES
Irving Bush of Wisconsin Offers Some Extremely Reasonable Sugges-
 tons For Betterment.

Irving Bush. captain of Wisconsin '04, has offered some suggestions with reference to changes in the rules of football which ought to be adopted. He sanctions the forward pass rule, but believes it should now be modified so that when used it must go beyond the lines of scrimmage. Now foxy quar- terback, knowing that his men are all covered, can simply touch the ball to the ground and thus cause an incom- plete forward pass.
 Mir. Bush calls attention to another matter that it is a wonder has not been seriously considered before this. He advocates the abolishment of the

that to one who had done the most
