Hot Debate on Clipping.

There was a long debate on the slip
ping matter. IL will be recollected by
followers of football that the rules COM
nittee last March adopted q sort of
rider which prohibits clipping from be-
hind and suggests a fifteen yard penalty.
But this rider was only rarely enforced.
II was not generally understood taht IL
had TO be enforced.
Last night Foster Sanford OF Rutgers,
for years and years an enemy of clip
ping of any kind, made an impassioned
plea against the "dastardly practice"
He gave examples of players who had
been ruined by clipping. lie told how
Turk Gardner of Rutgers almost had
lost a leg because of clipping, which
fractured the limb and brought on
poisoning this year.
Gil Dobie of Cornell wanted all sorts

and from in front--prohibited. This sent
Hugo Bezdek of Penn State to the floor
with a violent remonstrance. You are
encroaching on dangerous territory"
Hugo howled. You are trying to tell
me how TO teach interference. Some
coaches teach men TO throw themselves
in intcrfsring-and you would stop that
hard and clean practice"
Bezdek also professed that he was

GUS definitions came his way. Clipping,

behind when he Is not carrying the ball.
Finally the coaches decided not TO in
cludo clipping from the side or the
front, and passed u resolution calling
on the rules committee TO pass a strin-
gent rule against clipping from behind.
Then the meeting adopted another reso-
lution calling on the rules committee
to fix a bigger penalty than 10 yards
The coaches then passed on TO the
question OF shifts and adopted a resolu-
tion introduced by Sanford. recommend
Ing to the rules committee that II so
amend the code that players making
shifts must come to dead stop--stop
long enough so that the officials may
see them stop. He pointed out that

the rule last season, but that the Army,
IN using the Notre Dame shift against
the Navy always came to a full stop
and showed just how II could be done
legally.
Tho suggestion that the coaches ASK
the rules committee to provide bigger

Professional football got black eye
at the organization meeting Of the Asso-
citation of American Football Coaches
ct the Hotel Astor last night. In re-
sponse to call from Nelson Metcalf of
Oberlin, Major Charles DAILY of West
Point, DR.. John Wilce of Ohio State and
Fielding Fl. Yost of Michigan the
coaches adopted resolution calling on
the colleges OF America to stop their
football mentors or other employees
from playing professional football and
demanding that the Central Board of
Officials bar from college officiating all
men who accept appointments for pro-
fessional contests.
The resolution added that the coaches
stood by the rule of the Western Con-
ference which takes from a player his
varsity letter if he participates In a pro-
fessional game even after he leaves the
college.
Metcalf brought UP the question and
then Major DAILY announced that at a
meeting in the afternoon the Advisory
Committee of Coaches, which acts with
the Rules Committee, had passed a reso-
luton against professional football. He
asked the coaches whether they wanted
to go on record In a similar way. and
they certainly did. The resolution as
adopted reads as follows:
"ResoLved, That the colleges of
America take the necessary steps TO
0ssure q complete separation of COL
fego and professional football. BE it
also resolved that this meeting of
coaches recommend TO the Central
Board that it drop all Officials soho
Got In professional games. IL also
ss resolved that professional football
is detrimental to the toelfGre of
american youth and the game of
football. It also is resolved that
college, coaches be barred from pro-
fessiofGl football gamea--tIbot coach
es discourage professional footbau

AMERICANS IN
EGYPT FIGHT TO
RETAIN TRADE

Cairo.-American business men
in Egypt are fighting to retain the
trade between America and Egypt
which was developed during the
war when the nations of Europe
were too busy to attend to their
foreign trade. This wartime trade
gave American exporters a foot
hold but since the war European
competition has been resumed.
The establishment of an agency
in Egypt of the United States ship
ping board, followed closely by the
opening of branches of the Amer
lean Express company, has stimu-
lated and encouraged the American
colony here. Individual Americans
have created local American firms

cotton importing in 191S-1s20 over

strike brought big coal contracts

America was ushered in as the OPP
portunist to play an important role
in Egyptian trade.
By 1918, American exporters
