ing answers ID Accept referees de-
cision without protest ~ l should

with so little time 10 play, eight

er's side I see no argument for
a tOuehback, which. 50 far as
can discover, would be the only
possible question To rule the
play a fouchback would be an In
justice, because that would give
the ball to the errinE side on the
20 yard line, point in advance Of
their previous position!
When questions like this are sub

usually is a catch somewhere Some
