The University of Oregon, Univer-

sport and all have made good scores

this years shoots. The University of
Oregon team has won the Oregon has
won the Oregon state championship
and has an average of 97.S for the
first three stages in the national inter-
collegiate matches now being contest
ed by colleges in every part of the
country.
That the colleges of the country
use up larger amounts of ammunition
than the public realizes is best shown
by the fact that the Oregon Aggies
alone, in all competitions since last
September, have shot away more than
100000 rounds of cartridges This is
probably higher than the general col
lege average for the same length of
time. but it can be clearly seen that
hundreds of colleges all over the conn
try use millions of rounds Of ammuni-
tion during their shooting period.

New Football
Rule Favored
By Coaches
By HENRY l. FARRELL

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, March 2S.-CU. PD-
Most of the big coaches and that part
of the public which is interested in
football approve of the new rule do
ing away with the free kick for goal
after touchdown. :
II will tend to make the game more
interesting to the spectator and in i,
degree will remove some of the one
man element that the soIons of the
game have been striving to eliminate.
Some of the intercollegiate leaders
believe that the star SYSTEM is re-
sponsible for many of the alleged evils
Of football and that rules directed to-
ward the increase of team play,will do
much to cure what ills that do exist.
The new rule awarding the point
after.a touchdown for a play, pass or
kick from any point beyond the five
yard line will make the play more ex-
citing because il will give the oppos-
ing side better chance to defend it,
self against another point, but it will
not remove that one man" factor.
1t is safe to wager that the drop
kick or the place kick will be chosen
nine times out of ten as the method of
trying for the additional point, espec-
tally in close game,
Even inferior defenses have the fac
ulty of putting up superhuman bar
riers on their own goal line, as any
one who follows football has seen time
after time. There is something about
fighting with the feet on that last line
of chalk that enables 150-pounder
to hold off a 2O0-pounder for play aft
er play.
The best teams cannot be sure of
selecting one play to carry the ball
five yards, or making Il successful for
ward pass for the same gain when the
game depended upon the successful
execution of the play.
1t, therefore, is reasonable to as
sumo that the kick will be chosen in
the majority of times because with u
fair holding defense in front of him,
the chance is comparatively easy for
an ordinary drop kicker to fall back
ten or twelve yards and boot field
goal. W.
For several years, the basketball
solons have been puzzled over the
problem Of eliminating the ..'one-man"
factor in the game which gives the
great advantage to team with a
sharp-shooter who can work from the
foul line. So also have the football
solons been striving to get the game
away from the place where an infer
ior team with one good kicker could
defeat a better eleven.
The new rule was framed with that
object in mind because it is well
known fact that the rules committee
Is not particularly interested in what
the public likes to see. However, the
team with the star kicker still has the
advantage, although the hazard
against him is somewhat increased.
