By ROBERT EDGREN.

The football rules committee is
| going to make an attempt to re-
strict the forward pass. Percy
Haughon is behind the notion.
Percy thinks football is becoming
too much like basketball. He wants
to make a blocked or grounded pass
behind the line of scrimmage a
free" ball, recoverable by either
side, like a fumbled ball.
Under the present rule the throw
ing side retains the ball. Haughton
figures that with a severe penalty,
the throwing side would be COM
PEELED to guard its passer as 1t does
its kicker, which would make fewer
players eligible to do down the field
and receive passes. This would
limit promiscuous forward passing,
which losing elevens sometimes re-
sort to late in a game, heaving the
ball around like a baseball and TAX
ing long chances for a possible
score.
HRughton's suggestion has found
some favor in a few Of the big COL
I leges that have unlimited beef to
draw on, and. naturally like the
idea of steam-rollering weaker op-
ponents with mass plays.
Dul lHe lOT " dTu pass mas COine
to stay If the whole country has
anything to say about it. The
game has become faster, snapper,
more spectacular. far more interest
ing to the spectators and fairer to
smaller colleges that haven't a huge
| football squad to draw on for re-
/ serves.
Still. 1 don't blame Haughton. He
| may be thinking of what might
happen il Harvard ran up against
some young gentlemen like Muller,
| of California, who helped roll up
that 80 score against Ohio a few
weeks ago.
West Favors the Pass.
Hugh Bezdek, coach of Penn
state, whose elevens have been very
successful of late years, comes out
squarely against Haughton's propo-
sition' saying that restricting the
forward pass would be a step back
toward the crude old days of the
| flying wedge.
The Middle West and Far West,
sections that have been very sue
cessful with the faster aerial at
tack, are solidly against tampering
with the present rules. That the
present rules are quite satisfactory
to spectators and players alike is
shown by the demand for larger
stadiums and the record breaking
crowds of last fall.
The football rules committee,
| however, will doubtless do some
! tinkering. One OF the unpleasant
endless desire of certain individuals

DOUBLE ROBBERY IF SEWARD DRUG STORE AND URBACR'S ROBBERS ENTER URBACH'S AND SEWARD DRUG STORE AND
 SECURE MONEY

Urbach's Cents Furnishings store and the Seward Drug Store were broken into Christmas night and the cash registers in both places were rob bed. About S12500 were taken from Urbach's and S33. from the Seward Drug store.
 Both jobs were evidently done by the same party or parties. The two buildings adojin with a narrow alley way between them. The burglars en- tered this alley from the rear and from all indications first broke one of the side windows into Urbach's and after completing this job jimmied the side door into the drug store.
 The party breaking the window into Urbach's evidently received bad cut from the broken glass for blood stains were found on the window and a bloody cloth was picked up in the drug store which had been used to bind the wound
 It is believed that the party or par ties responsible for the robbery are late arrivals from Anchorage on the way outside and pulled the trick to obtain enough money to pay their way out. This seems reasonable from the fact that nothing else seems to have been touched except the cash nothing was taken that could be identified.
 Extra night watchmen have been put on to prevent another such occur ance. The authorities are at work on few clues and it is possible that the guilty parties will be caught before the boat leaves for the states.

HEARST CHARGES
 ENGLAND RUNS
 DUR GOVERNMENT
Charges That England Through Inter- national Bankers Controls United
 States and Wash. Conference

SEATTLE, Dec. 27-William Ran dolph Hearst in a signed statement in the Post Inteligencer today and which is being published in all his papers, throughout the United States charges that England through the Information al Bankers is running our government and the Washington Conference.
 He alleges that there has not been any suggestion of genuine disarma- ment made at the Washington confer ence nor will there be. English diplo- mack and influence through the finan- cial powers of the world is dictating the policies of the United States gov ernment and the activities of the Washington Conference.
 He pays high tribute to the spirits of the French Delegation at the Wash ington Conference for it's opposition to the proposals made to the Conference by the British.

PROF. HERSCHEL {. PARKER
 PRON0UNCES SEWARD FIELD
 MOST PROMISING OF OIL BELT
FAVORABLE REPORT ON COUNTRY
L wer Tertiary Formation outcrops near Seward and oher favorable indications exist thet warrant drilling
 for Oil. Oil considered to be at no great depth.

two little mountain springs the sur face Of the water was crusted over with ice. An iron rod was driven down through the ice and a lighted candle was held to the opening. The escaping gas burned up with a clear blue flame extending a foot above the surface of the ice and continued to burn for considerable length of time. The gas at this point has a very strong smell Of Hydrogen Sulphide, which is con sidered very good indication of oil.
 In addition to the gas there are one or two small seepages of oil. In the vicinity and an abundance of shale and oil sands are exposed on the sur face. These sands have been tested with cloroform showing an abundance of paraffin.
 Professor Herschel Parker was very highly pleased with the showing and the prospects of oil and expressed himself as follows:
 FIELD VERY PROMISING
 During considerable portion of the past two years I have given my attention to the subject of the exis- tence of possible oil fields in the vic inity of the Government Railroad.
 "At various times I have publicly announced that the geological condi- tions were most favorable for the for nation of very extensive oil fields in the region adjacent to the head of Cook Inlet and the surrounding coun- try, and I am now glad to state that these possibilities extend to the region about Seward
 study of the geological history of this section and superficial examina- tion of the strata proves conclusively that considerable strip of territory runs through this section of country consisting of an unmetamorphised sed imentary formation. have satisfied

A party consisting of Professor Herschel c. Parker, Harry Ellsworth, ". A. Horuer, Cliff Hall, and A. E. Fucker, editor of the Seward Gateway motored to Gas City, nine miles from Seward, last Saturday to inspect the oil showings at that place.
 The so called Gas City" consists Of one lone shack, located on an oil claim at Grouse Lake just beyond Woodrow on the Government Railroad This oil and gas showing was discov- cred about two years ago and practi- cally all thebusiness men of Seward are interested in thelocation.
 Because of insufficient funds no at tempt has been made to put a drill upon the property. The only improve ments upon the claim are one building and a gas line from the gas escape to the building. The escaping gas is col lected by a hood and is conveyed to the building for demOnstrative pur- poses which also proves a convent ence to campers in thesummer. Won derful fishing abOunds in the vicinity and having caught nice mess of fish one can have the added novelty of frying them on natural gas
 Professor Parker has been making a close study of the oil prospects along the government railroad for the past few years and has prepared a very favorable report thereon as the result of his investigations. Having heard of the Seward prospects, he de- sired to inspect them.
 Although there was considerable snow on the ground enough of the for nation was exposed in the cuts thru which the road passes, that some idea could be obtained of the character of the surrounding country.
