Grid Game Has About
Twelve Minutes
Actual Play

BOSTON, Dec. GA typical
football game Of four fifteen
minute periods in fact is a con-
test Of only about twelve min
utes Of actual play. Calling
signals takes up four times as
much of the playing period as
the plays themselves.
These are the conclusions
gained after an analysis Of the
Holy Cross Boston College game
played last Saturday. The
analysis was made by Fred w.
Burleigh, who has officiated at
leading college games for many
years.
BY applying a stop watch on
each of the 1872 plays in the
game, Burleigh found that the
ball was in actual flight only
eleven minutes twenty-three Sec
. onds from starting whistle to
finish horn. The average. time
for each play, from the time the
ball was snapped back by the
center to the time it was de-
clared dead, was 5.2 seconds,
while an average Of twenty-five
seconds was taken by the quar-
terbacks to call signals.
