Not Alter the Game

The South Atlantic gridiron division

board on football officials. Dr. William
K. Lamberth. OF the University of Vir-
gtnia. at the meeting of the football
rules committee. held Saturday at the
Biltmore Hotel in New York City, was
appointed by DR.. Rabbit. of Haverford
University. chairman of the board, to
take the place on the committee made
vacant by the withdrawal OF Percy
Haughton. the famous Harvard coach.
Coach Haughton recently broke into the
major league baseball by purchasing the
Boston National League Club. and may
not coach the Harvard gridiron warriors
this season.
Although at this meeting Of the rules
committee the different suggestions made
by experts all over the country came be-
fore the body for considerable pro and
con. no radical changes were made. Many
changes OF a technical nature we're made
In the rules, and the followers OF the
sport may witness the work of the rules

One new rule ciyes the referee the

the cid have been able to see the ball
Changes made in the Interpretation of
some Of the rules give officials greater
powers than ever before. Many PLAYS

the hand. 1t is plainly the duty Of the
referee TO Judge whether a pIayr is or
is not, making a bona fde attempt to get
the ball
The defensive player is also given more
power in the event Of a kicked ball, when
IT becomes free ball The player will be
permitted TO push aside another player
to get at the ball.
The necessity for this ruling grew out
OF the evasion last season by some teams
when players were instructed TO purpose
ly interfere with the receiver OF a long
forward pass when the chances appeared
in favor Of the pass being completed
The theory was that a 1O-yard penalty
was the better Of two evils
A happy medium was struck. however,
on the ground that II the penalty was
TOO severe officials would be prone TO lax
ness In enforcing it
The forward pass especially when II r.
used as weanu1 Of defence or UrTense
near the goal line rane in for cocsiCer-
able attention. Rulings were adopted on
a forward pass striking the ground be-
hind the goal line or hitting against the
goal posts. for both defending and at
lacking teams. In the case Of the side
defending. a forward pass which be-
comes incomplete by striking the ground
behind the goal line on the first SEQ
ond or third down is a safety. II on
the fourth down the pass becomes in
complete in the same way the ball goes
to the opposing side al the spot where
the scrimmagc occurred.
The same ruling holds good In the
event OF the ball hitting the goal post
For the attacking side a forward pass in
completed by striking the goal posts on
the first. second or third down auto
matically becomes a safety. while on the
fourth down the ball goes to the op-
ponents at the spot Of scrimmage.
