TINE experience of the Loyal Pub
lie with the rules of the great
American mess OF college foot
ball has been much the same as its
experience with tariff revision down
ward-it takes a long time to get
real -esults.
About steen years ago We were
confronted with the choice of throw
ing out wings on the leading hos
pitfalls or setting to work on the foot
ball rules. The latter seemed simpler
and less expensive. so an effort was
made in that direction. AS a matter
Of fact. a number of efforts have
been made in that direction, but to
the present time the rules have
been revised much as the tariff was
handled by those celebrated two
handed little revisers, Mcssrs. Payne
and Aldrich.
The earnest request for a loosen
ing up of the football game of our
college children arises from two
sources Time was when tenderly
nurtured girls were lured out 20 see
a game" and were let in for a com
bination Of Clusters Last Charge and
a busy day in kishineff Then, in
the interest of keeping alive what
might be made a good game. it be-
came apparent to the densest that
the game would have to be made
more open
A BOUT six years ago they start
a ed in on this tack and so far
they have made no progress
visible to the unaided vision. Rules
have been made requiring a greater
gain of distance on a given number
Of plays in the hope that this would
lead to more running but at the
same time no inducements were en-
bodied in the rules that would make
open running attractive as a ground
gaining medium. The result was
tiresome kicking duels.
Then the wise men of the game
adopted the forward pass" than
which no weirder play was ever
evolved. The forward pass in itself
IS a sort of violation of the princi-
Piles Of all games where the object
IS to advance a ball aCrO"s field
Jul Will Allt diIil 81 opening uB
American football il would have been
more than defensible If the trainers
Of the rules had been on the level
with it. AS it IS, they have so hedged
this play about with technicalities
and impossibistes that when a team
successfully works this attack it is
more blind luck than anything else
II you want the details you can get

a number of we'll equipped Constitu-

"New FoOtball'' Is Huge Joke
Rules Fall Short of Purpose

college club used it the other day
fourteen times in one game and got
away with 1t three times which is
all you have to know to understand
why the big teams can not depend
upon ii.
For instance, any player who re-
Ceives this pass must be on the side in
possession of the ball when the ball
is put in play, and he must have been
at least one yard back of the scrim-
mage line when it was sna pped, eX-
Cept in the case of the extreme flank
ing men Of the line. This ridiculous
teChniCality defeats the purpose Of
the rule without any Of the dozen 9TH
ers.
1t prevents linemen from breaking
through to take pass, and it pre-
vents the man who is running with
the ball. if he has taken it from his
opponents, from passing 1t along to a
Comrade. If any player on either side
were permitted to pass the ball in
any direction at any time, American
football might be made fairly inter
esting for the ineNpert spectator.
A MOTHER point: Under the techni-
y calities the dangers of losing the
ball are so many that most coaches
this year are afraid to use the pass
toward the ends. They pass over the
center of the line so that if the bal
falls into bad hands the two TANKS
will be closing in on it. This does
not open up the play to any extent.
All of which means that the mon
who frame the rules are Still welded

FAMOUS SUICIDE PACT
 BEFORE SUPREME COURT

The brief in the case of J. D. Jarvell vs. State of Arkansas, ap- pealed from the criminal docket of Pike County, was filed with the clerk of the Supreme Court Saturday. This was the case that created national interest on account of it's nature, and the prominence sof the parties con- cerned.
 It is claimed by the prosecution that Farrell was implicated in a suicide pact that was formed by some of the people in Pike County who had spiritualistic ideas of re- ligion. On the 18th of last Sep tember Miss Rhoda Carter and Mrs. T. l.. Turner were found dead at their home, and the in- vestigation disclosed that they had died of morphine and stry- chnine poisoning.
 Following an investigation. T L. Turner, and J. D. Farrell were indicted by the grand jury on the charge of assisting in the murder, Farrell being indicted specifically of procuring the.drugs Wjih which they brought about their death. Upon trial Turner was found insane and was com mitted to the State Asylum for the insane. Farrell was found guilty and sentenced to five years in the penitentiary.
 Farrell's case will be heard by the Supreme Court about the 3rd of January. The attorneys for ths appellant are Messrs. w. P. Feazel, T. D. Lawler and T. w. Roundtree.

 LOTIONS INJURE EYES

New York, Dec. 15. The New York committee on the prevent ion of blindness sounds an alarm today by the report that more than half of theacases of eye weakness amony men of this city may be traced to barber shops.
 It is alleged that bay rum and other lotions used in some shops contain wood alcohol and that the inhalation of the fumes or drops of the liquid in the eyes cause serious trouble.
 There is already a law prohibit. ing the use of such lotions, but the committee on blindness has found it to be rarely enforced. The aid of the inspectors of the health department has been sum- moned in the crusade to be wag- ed for enforcement of the laws.
