'GO SLOW ON
GRID CHANGES
Penalty for Side and Rear
Clipping Is Voted Down
by Coaches
GIVE CHANCE TO
FINISH TIES

NEW YORK. Dec. 20 Omitted
Press) beef as well as
football brains were much In evil
dence at tho second annual meeting
OF the American Association of Foot
ball Coaches.
Great mentors OF the football and
former stars whose names are
craven deeply on the tablets OF foot
ball history crowded the anteroom,
renewing old acquaintances and
making new ones. The meeting
seemed slightly handicapped by the
youth OF the organization. II has de-
velop.d so rapidly In the last year
that Il has almost outgrow1 Itself
and a great majority ofths members
we're content TO leave the discussion
20 a few OF ths old timers and
founders OF the association. The
coaches II seemed, did not as yet
wish 10 exert 10 any great extent the
strong influence that such an organi-
zatlon would hold over the American
game but 1t IS believed that when
the organization hits its stride IL I'll
be the greatest factor toward mold
ing and Improving football.
Interest OF the meeting Was cen-
tered on the report OF the rules com
mittee headed by Major DAILY OF
West Point which proposed several
changes in the rules.
II was evident that from the start
"a "a Il raunkaa In "a
vor OF changes involving an In
creased penalty. The suggestion 10
prohibit clipping from the rear and
side and TO impose a penalty OF 20
Yards for such infractions was
promptly voted down as also wac
the motion to increase the penalty
for delaying the game. When II was
evident that the molten TO impose
25-yard penalty for interfering with
the catcher of a punt by not giving
him a clear path to the ball would
have met the same fate, the motion
was laid on the table.
One OF the most significant actions
taken by the coaches was the ap-
provsl of the territory for point after
touchdown that has been IN use this
year. All seemed to feel that the
new rule had received a fair trial
and u It dld not fulfll the require
ments It would II least do until
somethins better could be decided
upon.
John W. Hsisman said that in
event OF tie game each team be
given three downs and that the
eleven succeeded IN advancing the
ball the greatest distance should be
allowed the extra point 20 decide the
game.
Frank O'Neil, Columbia coach, /
also suggested that a tie game
which should be decided In favor Of
the team which had made the great

The same assumption Of the sup
eriority Of the pen over the first on
the part OF the New York Boxing
Commission was one Of the features
Of the year.
Because Johnny Kilbane and
Johnny Wilson refused 10 defend
their titles, the commission order
ed them beaten" and named Johnny
Dundee as the featherweight cham
pion and Dave Rosenberg as the
middleweight title holder.
Things went all right as far as
the featherwelght tangle was con-
cerned. but the eommish got Itself
into a terrible Jam by mixing in the
middlewelght tangle.
The commission ordered Johnny
Dundee and Danny Frush. who had
challenged for the title TO night Il
out and Dundee became the feather
weight champion by knocking out
Frlsh.
Before he had won the American
light heavyweight championship
from Gene Tunney. Harry Greb had
done much talking about forcing
fight with Johnny Wilson and when
Wilson refused 10 fight him, the
commission ordered his title re-
moved and suggested that Greb and
Dave Rosenberg meet for the title.
Greb refused and was suspended.
Rosenberg ran out OF a night with
Mike O'Dowd and he was suspended.
Finally Rosenberg did get In the
ring with O'Dowd and lost the de-
cision. the title and all Of his purse
on a foul.
Johnny Buff was the champion

but being hard pressed at times by
Peter Earl, a sensational racehorse.

year-olds gone into battle. The SEN

during 1929. During the short sea-

by the boards.

The fastest flight among the
PAGERS was that of Margaret Dillon
when she registered a mile in 1;5sh
equalllng the record for mares. In
the early season this splendid PAGER
had TO race in two minutes or better
whenever she hooked up with Sir
Roche, which took a mark OF 1.5S&
and doubtless will improve upon that
in 1928, as comparatively little use
was made OF him up to this year.
Othey fast performances there
