Odds and Ends of Local Sport
NEW RULES
HAVE CUT OUT
MUCH OF PUNTING

Punters are likely TO be put out of
their jobs if the first football games
of the season can be said to accurate
ly forecast the action of the new
rules:
From all over the country there is
agreement on this one point in CON
nection with the radically changed
-punting has virtually
been eliminated
Now a team can keep the ball and
make gains. hence there is no reason
to surrender it by a punt. Instead,
there is recourse TO the forward pass,
which means big gains of il works,
and should it fail, carries no penalty
seyerer than lost down. unless, of
course, the ball should be cleanly
caught by the enemy and be carried
for a big gain.
This lack of punting may be said
70 be the most notable change work.
ed by the new rules. 1t was a reform
that was desired, for in the last few
years the defense had gained strength
to a point where the offense had lit
tie chance to make consistent pro-
gress against a team of anywhere
near It's own caliber Hence, there
was the constant use of the punt. Two
tries, a petty gain and then a punt
That was the program.
The football authorities sought TO
do away with this condition. They
weakened the defense. The forward
pass was made legal anywhere on
the field and the number of downs
was increased from three to four.
The removal of the restrictions on
the forward pass mades il a play that
Is likely to be used all the time, and
compels the team on defense 10 play
more open game in order to guard
against a. surprise.
With the defense thus opened there
is a better chance for fleet backs to
run the ends, or for heavy plunging
backs to hit the line for small gains.
The added downs makes this style OF
play the more successful, since with
four chances to make ten yards, the
comparatively small average of only
two and one-half yards TO a plunge
suffice to hold the ball.
During the three or four last sea-
sons, the coaches ran around breath
less TO find punters. and to develop
their distance kicking ability.
Now the punt comes so compare
lively seldom that the importance of
the punter ia much reduced. The
abolition Of the onside Kick also does
away to a large extent with the need
for man who can punt accurately.
Only for the field goal kicker is
there still a strong demand, and un-
less later games bring some change
Il is likely that i'm this department
the use of the skilled toe will have
It's best development.

SIX RUNS FOR RIGHT FIELD.

The shift in positions between the
New York outfelders during the
worlds championship series caused
some confusion among those who had
placed bets on the result, one of the
gambles having been on the number
of runs made by each position on the
two teams, regardless of the men who
played the positions. According to
Francis c. Richter, one of the official
scorers, Murray made three runs as
left fielder and two as right fielder;
Devore made one run as left fielder
and three as right fielder; Snodgrass
made one run as right fielder. This
makes the total number of runs cred
tied to left field, four, and to right
field six.
