Important Changes
In Football Rules

Local football fans will be inter-
ested to learn that the intercollegiate
Football Rules Committee which is
now in session in New York City. has
abolished the free trial for goal after
touchdown. BY the new rule. the
side scoring touchdown will be CIV
en- the ball on the Vineyard line where
they must carry the ball over the line
again 10 receive credit for the one
point that was formerly given the
eleven which has scored to carry ball
over again. This change was recon-
mended by the Association Of Ameri-
can Football Coaches in their meet
ing last December. Football experts
all over the country have advocated
this change for many years.
The rule governing shift plays
was changed so "a TO reduce the freak
shifts employed by some western
colleges. These plays have puzzled
many teams Of late and really are not
football.
The rules also have been so chang.
ed that the team winning the toss
selects the goal it is to defend while
the opposing team has It's choice Of
either kicking or receiving.
By the new rules in the case Of
darkness the fourth or both periods
OF the second half ma ybe shorten
ed by the referee with the consent Of
both captains Also player may
return to the game in the same half
in which he was removed. Now he
does not have TO return al the begin
ming Of period. Any player who
leaves the line Of scrimmage must
be five yards in the rear Of the line
when the ball is snapped. The Of.
fetal also must blow his whistle
when he Is certain that the ball has
crossed the line or a forward pass
ha sheen completed behind the line.

In the church we are given the OPP

a man to preach and a isnitor to
dust without having an assured in
come. We. therefore. operate on a

mated. Pledges are asked from

contribution on a proportioned basis
A recent visitor at the Church Of

learned is the regular weekly offering
Of the richest man in the congrega-
ton, a Mexican garage mechanic
earning $50 a week. His skin is
swarthy. He speaks little English.
But he gives one-tenth Of his income
to the church. Do you give to the

Your doorbell will ring Sunday af-

terprise will offer you an opportunity
to share financial support for the
