NEWARK, Feb. l7.-Delaware
basketball team played one OF its
best games OF the season last night
but lost 20 Washington and Jener-
son. 2s 20 10. Tho same brand OF
ball as put up by the Blue and Gold
last night would no doubt have won
the Lafayette game last week.
The Presidents brought fast and
aggressive aggregation here and In
every respect Il was one OF the best
games OF the season. W. and j.
claimed TO be handicapped because
OF the fact that the Conn Brothers.
two OF the varsity men were both
out owing 10 study conditions placed
on them following the mid-year
examinations. Kemp Conn was cap
tain OF the team and played forward
while his brother Cecil Conn had
been covering guard position. In the
absence OF Kemp Conn. the acting
captaincy fell on Saunders who play
ed a star guard game.
Cecil Conn's absence gave Kopf
who played end on the great W. and
]. football team last fan his chance
at guard. Kopf proved that he Is
equally as good In the cage az he Is
on the gridiron. Although playing a
guard position he shot hve field
goals. more than any other one
player and several Of these were
beauty long shots Walker also was
a star az long shots from the field
scoring three for his team. II was
on these long shots that W. and j.
excelled and managed TO keep IN the
lead at every stage OF the game.
Some idea OF the clean game that
Delaware played can be gained from
the fact that but four fouls were
called on Blue and Gold players
during the entire game and Eaton
shot two OF them Twenty-one fouls
were called on W. and J. but most OF
these we're for technical ofenses
Robinson shot z out OF - foul goali
and Lowell out OF 8.
Kopf and Saunders guarded Della
ware forwards so close that one nel,
goal In the first half and three ID
the second half was the best the
could do. Keith put up stron
game for Delaware while William
also did good work.

NO GOAL AFTER
TOUCHDOWN
Collegiate Football Coaches
Unanimously Approve of
This at Meeting

NEW YORK. Feb. 17.-Abolish-
ment OF the present practice OF kick
ing a goal after a touchdown was
unanimously approved by collegiate
football coaches, meeting here with
members OF the rules committee.
which will consider changes in the
present football code at It's March
meeting.
Major Charles DAILY, OF West Point
author OF the proposal, suggested
that instead OF the goal after touch
down, the scoring team be allowed to
put the ball on the 15-yard line.
Then, with both teams lined up in
scrimmage formation. the scoring
team would have the option OF scor-
ing the additional point by either a
run, a forward pass or a place kick.
II a foul was committed by the
defensive team, the one-point score
would be allowed. II the foul was
committed by the offensive team, Il
would forfeit It's chance TO make the
play and the ball would be taken TO
the center of the field for a new
kickoff In the usual manner.
The coaches also urged that the
present Interpretation against "clip-
ping from behind" be incorporated
as a rule and that the rules commit
tee should consider increasing the
present penalty OF 10 yards
They also declared In favor OF
clarifying the present rule on shift
plays
The coaches also asked the com
mittee 20 rule that touchdown b,
allowed when the ball was held ant
returned momentarlly after a run
ner carried Il across the goal line, oi
upon the completion behind the goa
line OF a forward pass.
The penalizing OF obstreperoui
lnesmen should be outlined In th'
football code rather than In th'
rules book. il was suggested. II wal
recommended that when a playel

lowed three times. his side should bl

runners on first and second and two
out. Both runners scored on the
hit. The batsman was thrown out

When such a play comes up, the
umpire has no right TO call time

In the above play the umpire
