Furthermore, what is the identity
of the Judge who says that "our ex-
perience in Arizona has shown that
in many instances the best qualified
men will not enter a primary in
competition for Offices with those
less qualified? Who determined
and graded the qualifications of
those who entered the primary and
those who, for the reason given, re-
Trained? Whose experience in
Arizona" is to SHOW the people
Of this state who is best qualified
BY what process of reasoning does
man say, Il cannot be a candid
ate; my competitor is less qualified
than T., and. if such Socratian log
ic were to be pursued, what would
ever induce second aspirant to
enter the lists for any Office.
Enough, The issue is between
the Direct Primary and the Conven-
ton System, with big c and big
s, by whatever title the latter may
be presented, in whatever disguise
it may be dressed The question is,
which do the people want? Do they
wish to retain the power to say,
througha plan giving every party
man and every party woman free
and unrestricted direct choice. who
the standard bearers of their re-
spective political parties shall be?
Or do they prefer to delegate that
vital duty of American citizenship
to so-called representatives, whom
they may or may not have fair
voice in choosing Representatives
personally conducted by tools whose
slightly larger interest or greater
vanity it is--tools directed bv bosses
whose profession it is-boases in
structed by attorneys of agents
whose bought-and- paid-for duty it
is to see that those things are done
which the power behind the throne
says must be done. Do they wish
on election day to exercise the ser
ious and dignified privilege of gen
uine American citizenship, by cast
ing their ballots for candidate of
to march with the stilted pride of
little manikins to the polls and with
fowl-like deliberation make choice
between Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-

obliged to kickoff.
The darkness rule was altered, the
referee with the consent of both cap
tains to decide between halves to
shorten the fourth period or both
periods in the second half Heretofore
a shortening of the time previously
agreed upon could be made only before
the game began.
Rules governing substitutions were
changed so that a player cannot return
TO the field in the same half in which
he is removed. Ii is not necessary that
he should return a the beginning of
period
The "one man in notion regulation
was rewritten so that any player lcav-
ing the scrimmage line before play be-
gins must be at least five yards behind
the line when the ball is snapped.
Among the rulings approved by tho
committee was one that officials
should whistle as soon as convinced
that the ball had crossed the goal limo,
or, in the case of forward passes. when
the pass is completed behind the line.
The committee decided to have inter-
pretations of rules made by the general
interpretations committee printed Sep

interpretations committAr printed Sep

MANY CHANGES MADE IN RULES
GOAL KICK IS ABOLISHED

NEW YORK. March 11.-Abolition of
the fre trial for goal after touchdown,
substitution therefor of play from
line of scrimmage on or back of the
five yard line of "a defending eleven and
clarifying changes in the rules regard
ing shift plays, clipping from behind
and substitutions We're announced to-
day by the intercollegiate football rules
committee. The action of the commit
tee in abolishing the trial for goal af-
ter touchdown, the most radical step
taken since the introduction of the for
ward pass in 1906, had been recon-
mended by the Association of Amer
lean Football Coaches following its
meeting here last December.
The revision had been demanded by
a majority of football experts for years
and since the abolition two years ago
coaches took up the campaign for
abandonment of the play declaring it
useless as it stood and harmful to the
game. 1t was understood that w. w.
Roper. Princeton coach suggested the
play for the point from line of scrim-
mage.
In regard to the change into the
shift ruling, the opinion of some foot
ball men was that it would tend to
put damper on the playing style of
some of the leading western college
elevens, especially that of Notre Dame
whose weird shifts have puzzled op-
posing teams for several years.
The initial Kickoff regulation was
altered so that If the side winning the
toss selects the goal the other team
has the choice of either kicking or re-
ceiving.
Heretofore when one captain elected
