NEW YORK, Sept. Beginning
~ to-day and continuing for the
next three weeks, the greatest
amateur and professional sports in
America viii be engaged in their an
nual duel to decide which shall de-
mand the bulk Of attention from the
populace Just as baseball is nearing
its climax. as the regular seasons in
the two big leagues draw to a close
and the worlds series edges mp into
the dope, football comes a-rolling in,
end over end, and the most glorious
period Of Uncle Sans national pas
time finds a counter in his
national college game.
The Carlisle Indians Albright game
at Carlisle. Pa, to-day ushered in
the gridiron year. Two weeks later,
when the baseball season winds up,
all the pig eleveus will be in action.
and the following Saturday, when the
worlds series is at the height OF its
tension. the moleslllnners will be
reaching "mid-season form" 1t is a
fact that these coming three weeks
are about the busiest Of the entire
sport year, with the two biggest games
overlapping and dovetailing each 9TH
er, and the third of the three will
mark the climax
IT seems as If the intention OF the
rule makers to introduce more open
play this year has gone sadly awry.
After noting the success of the open
game last year from the standpoint of
the spectator, as we'll as the player,
they thought it would be a good idea
to Introduce more. So they changed
the rule that made it necessary for q
kicker to be at least five Yards be-
hind the rush line He now is al
lowed to be right up under the center.
This is. in way, the bringing back
of the old onside kick of several wears
ago. the difference being that il Is not
an Onside one since the kicker
teammates can not take the ball I'M
til after one Of the defensive side has
| touched it,
The main effect Of this new rule
will be to open up the defense spread
il out SO that the secondary line can
clutch the bah on quick kick from
formation before II gets a chance Ia
roll too far down the field With the
defense scattered, can you see what
will follow II will leave weakness
