NEW CODE Of ETHICS
TO GOVERN FOOT BALL
Committee Announces Supplement
to Rules Aiming at Unfair
Practices.

BOSTON June ia code of ethics
to govern foot ball beyond the point
where the rules now stop was an
nounced last night by E. K. Hail OF
Dartmouth. chairman of the foot ball
rules committee, which comprises four
teen graduate representatives of various
colleges in the east and middle west
The committee, which already has re-
vised slightly the playing rules Tor
next season, is to publish the code as a
supplement to the rules.
You may meet players and even
coaches" the committee states. who
will tell you that it is all right to
violate the rules II you do not get
caught. This is the code that obtains
among sneak thieves and pickpockets
The crime in their case is getting
caught.
THE foot ball code is different The
player who intentionally violates rule
is guilty of unfair play and unsportman-
like tactics. and whether he escapes
being penalized. he brings discredit to
the good name Of the game"
Each year, the committee says. there
has been less attempt on the part Of
the players Ito beat the rules" unfair
tactics have largely disappeared and
the anything win" coach is disap-
pearing There are. however. still
many school teams, and even some col
lege teams, which seem to fail to rec
ognize that the first obligation of every
foot ball player Is to protect the game
itself. it's reputation and Its good name"
The suggestions made by the COM
mittee follow, in part:
Holding Is prohibited by the rules,
because it does not belong in the game
of foot ball. 1t is unfair play. 1t
elimaintes skill. The slowest man in
the world could make 40-yard run in
every play If the rest of his teammates
enough. The game is to advance the
ball by strategy. skill and speed with
out holding your opponent.
Coaching from the side lines Is pro-
hibited in the rules. because it Is con-
sidered an unfair practice. The game
is to be played by the players using
their own muscle and their own brains.
Beating the ball by an unfair use Of
a starting signal is nothing less than
deliberately stealing an advantage from
the other side. An honest starting sig
nal is good foot ball, but a starting
signal which has for it's purpose start
ing the team a fraction of a second
before the ball is put in play in the
hope that it will not be detected by the
officials Is nothing short Of crookedness.
Talking to your opponents. II 1t
falls short of being abusive or insult
ing is not prohibited by the rules. part
Iy because 1t ought not to be necessary
and partly because no rules can make
gentleman out of a mucker No good
sportsman is ever guilty Of cheap talk
to his opponents"

After taking supper at the home of Mrs.

In order not to attract attention, two
secret service operatives followed in
Detective Jervis' small roadster, the

Mrs. Wilson has been out a number
of times by herself lately, but it was

about 5000 delegates, grotesquely cos

pyrotechnic feature is to be a repro

searchlights, flashing through biz
yards of confetti, will help turn the line
of march into a land of seeming fire.
The parade is to disband at Grand Cir

What may happen after that-well, no
lodge official has had courage to fore
cast.
Wednesday afternoon another parade
is to take place. This spectacle is to
be of a serious nature, however Floats

Business Transaction With Youth
full vender and Hungry Young
Man as Principals.

Old man Diogenes is hereby advised
to take his lantern over Georgetown
way in his search for a person Of the
highest and purest honesty. This is
why:
Last night, when an open Glen Echo
car stopped at the pit in Georgetown to
change from the underground to the
overhead trolley, gay youth on the
front seat discovered that a bag Of
neanuts was extremely needful in his
pursuit of happiness. He called small
and very youthful man of business, got
his bag of peanuts and handed out a
dime for payment The aforesaid
young man of business did not have a
nickel. so. telling his patron not to
fear. he ran to the back of the car to
get some change.
But the pftman had in the meantime fin
ished his work. and the car started. The
young man on the front seat waved
frantfcally to the boy at the rear. and
then called to him to throw another
bag of the great American delicacy.
1t was too late, however, for the I'M
feeling motorman put on full speed, and
in few seconds the car turned a cor
ner and the boy was out of sight.

well, such is life" philosophically
remarked the young man on the front
seat, and he started in to enjoy the few
peanuts he had managed to get out Of
the transaction. A grave-looking, be-
specialized companion made many COM
ments on the business acumen of his
friend.
Two hours later, when another car,
bearing the two and another whom
they had met at the resort, stopped
over the pit on the return trip. the
young man who had lost the nickel
was surprised to hear small voice
ask:
Mister, do you want your nickel or
another bag?"
