denied their expense accounts were
exorbitant. The committee announced
it would make it's report to the national

final action. The athletes, if found
guilty, may be suspended or declared
professionals.

QUINTET
IS FAvOR|TE IN
BASKETBALL LOOP
Prospects Are for Fast Team
yarmouth Five Also Looms
as Title Contender.

New York, Dec. 17.-Intercollegiate
basketball is again under full head
Of steam Pennsylvania by virtue Of
its third successive league champion
ship must get first consideration
wherever and whenever basketball and
wonderful quintets are being discussed.
Not only did the Quaker quintet win
first place in the leagues standing last
year, but the fast scoring Red and
Blue floor men went outside their pre-
scribed territory and took into camp
the splendid scoring outfit Of New
York university. The five did not go
however, for the Penn State quintet,
after a defeat by the tail-end Yale
team, won from the Quakers in an
extra period game Cornell also won
close game from the Quakers
PENIS prospects for fast team this
year are exceedingly bright Although
the loss of the brilliant Danny Nc
Nichol will be keenly felt, the return
of every other member of last year S
quintet has given Quaker stock great
; boom. Ed McNichol, brother of the
famous foul shooting Danny, will again
coach the basket men.
Dartmouth Looks Strong
The big Green team of Dartmouth
looms up as strong contender for
the title this year The Hanover crew
surprised all followers of the game
by their fine performance of finishing
second in the pennant rush last year.
and reports from the mountain region
indicate that nothing short of the top
of the hill viii satisfy the hustling
Green quintet.
Cornell finished the season in third
place, a ranking considered low BY all
who saw the big team in action in
its early season games. Ortner, who
was captain and one of the best for
wards in the days of DIR. Sharp. win
coach the team this season. Several
of last years stars have been lost by
graduation. but led by Captain Molinet.
the leagues highest scorer of baskets
from the floor last year, the team is
heading for higher honors this season.
Princeton is Disappointment
Princeton was one of the big disap-
pointments Of the league last year
| The shifting around of coaches at mid
season was disastrous to the quintet S
chances for a position better than
| fourth in the leagues standing. A bas-
ketball board of control. something new
| in Princeton's basketball policy. is
being tried out this year. The quintet
will also have training table, which
| is another new idea.
| Coach Iahn, brother Of the Dart
mouth mentor, will endeavor to put the
Tigers in the running this season.
i Columbia and Yale look like tail
enders this year.

Other Changes Suggested.
Then there are other numerous less
important rules in which there is dis
position to make alterations-the real
enforcement of the number of players,
a limitation to be placed upon the num-
Der of substitutes, varying values for
field goal, depending upon the distance
from the goal, the elimination of start
ing signals, the restoration of the field
to it's old size, increasing penalties by
sending offenders to the side lines with
out allowing substitutions and another
perennial one, the elimination of goal
after touchdown.
The rules committee does not meet
usually until March, but the topic of
changes will be a live one from the
time it is approached by the national
collegiate association. This latter body
has many important matters before it
this year. Last year it organized ma
tionaI intercollegiate track and field

New York, Dec. 17.-As the time ap-
proaches for the meeting Of the nation
al collegiate association at the end of
the month to appoint football rules
committee college men are discussing
the changes which have been suggested
in the great gridiron game. Prominent
among the points discussed is the ques-
ton of limiting shift plays and of re-
stricting the number of men in motion.
There are many advocates also of a
proposal to place some restriction on
the forward pass. The screening of
the forward pass has been found OBJ
jectionable by some.
Proposed Pass Rules.
Various suggestions have been made
also as to limiting the power Of the for
ward pass by ruling that pass, when
blocked behind the scrimmage line, shall
be the same as blocked kick. Anoth-
err is limiting the number of forward
passes in each period or in the game as
a whole. Another is limiting the num-
Der of forward passes in the last five
minutes of play. This is intended to
prevent an orgy of forward passes by
which trailing team endeavors to turn
play.
There are others who advocate even
a further development of the forward
pass by making protecting penalty of
a more stringent nature for interior
