INSURANCE co. FEES
 KEEP STATE SOLVENT

Little Rock, March 12.-Fees paid into the state treasury by insurance companies, a per cent of their gross premiums collected in Arkansas dur ing the past year, has saved the gen eral revenue fund of the state treas ury from the shoals. Over $500, ,0OO has been collected from this source in the past month. One life insurance company paid $25,000. There is now $415,000 in the general revenue fund, which, with a bit of care maneou- vering,will prevent deficit by the time the county collections begin mak- ing their annual settlements. The treasury also shows a balance of about $50,000 in the state highway fund, and the fees for registration of automobiles in the state in 1920 have not been paid in by a single county collector. This fund will get about three-quarters of a million from this source this year.

CHANGES TALKED
 IN GRID RULING
(Ry United Press)

New York, March 12.-Rising from it's November grave, the ghost of foot ball will stalk around today for a brief airing in the world of sport when the intercollegiate committee gathers here to talk over new rules. Recent talk in collegiate circles has routed the belief of last fall that the present game was good enough to stand and would not be tempered with by the rules com mittee.
 Conservative Harvard has taken the fore in radical suggestions with recommendation to regulate the length of the game not by the tick of the watch but by the number of plays. Harvey R. Coffin, Harvard graduate, acting, it is said, with the approval of Percy Haughton, Walter Camp, and others, suggests that a period con- sists of forty plays not counting trys for goals from touchdowns and penal ties.
 Coach John Hiesman, gridiron tutor of Penn and former coach of Geor-
 
 amendment as means of preventing stalling. The plan has opposition, however Bill Roper, Princeton coach and the Tigers representative at the meeting, is against it.
 lnasmuch as the toes of Brickley, Mahan and others made football his tory for the Crimson, another sugges- tion of Harvard's is all the more rad ical, To curb the open game and dis courage kicking, the Cambridge uni versity favors an amendment to re- duce the distance between goal posts from Is it in. to II.
 Glenn Warmers suggestion to elim- mate kicking goals from touchdowns under the present arrangement seems to have a good chance for adoption Harvard, Yale and Princeton, in ad- dition to Pittsburgh, are said to be in favor of the substitution of an arrange ment by which the team scoring the touchdown would bring the ball into play on the twenty-yard line and be given a chance to kick from place ment of from field giving the opposi- tion a chance at defense.
 To correct the dissatisfaction re- sulting from tie-scores, the scoring system may be altered either by in creasing the number of points from touchdown to make one line crossing play better than two goals from the field or by a zone system, which is only fairly popular
 Heisman and some members of the Pennsylvania faction have suggested a system providing four points for balls lost within five yards of the op- ponents' goal line; three points inside the ten yard line and two points within the 20-yards line.
 These zone plans of scoring are ob- lected to chiefly on the grounds that complicated systems, involving the ser vices of bookkeepers and adding ma chinees are not to be encourage.
