new Football SCORING
Additional Scrimmage to Make Point
After Touchdown Now.


The method used by football teams
this year in a try-for-point after
touchdown will be far different from
what it has been in previous years.
Last year after a touchdown had
been scored the team making the six
points was given an opportunity of
making one more point by placing
the ball any place on the 10-yard line
and between the goal posts. The
change which has taken place this
year gives the team scoring the touch
down chance to make the added
point by placing the ball on the s.
yard line, putting it in play by a
scrimmage and kicking a goal by
drop or place kick or carrying the
bail across the opponents goal line
either by rushing the ball or by a
forward pass. The rule which gov
ems this phase of the game follows:
Rule X-Try-For-Point After Touchdown.
"a team which has made a touchdown
may add one additional point to its score
by putting the ball in play by scrimmagc
from any point on or outside the five yard
sns ana nIav by successfully eXeeIting in
kick or piace-kicE. # the ball passes er di.
after bling kicked, it strikes an opponent
and then passes over the cross-bar or one
of the goal posts. it shall count a goal.
In no case shall it count goal if the ball
after leaving the picker's foot, touches the
ground before passing over the cross-bar
or goal posts.
COB Carrying the ball across the op-
ponents' goal line, either by rushing or as
the result of forward pass.
"(c) Completing a forward pass in the
opponents end zone.
If foul is committed by the side max
ing the try or if such team makes an
illegal or incomplete forward pass, it shall
forfeit the opportunity to score the addi-
tional point.
"If a foul is committed by the side on
defense. the additional point shall be
awarded to the team making the try with
out further play whether or not the try
was successfully.
"If fouls are signaIed against both teams
on this play, the try shall be played over

Chicago, Sept. 13.-Attorney Donald
r. Richberg, chief counsel for the
striking shopmen in the Injunction
proceedings, said he had been in
formed that an agreement on the rail
strike had been reached. 1t was also
learned that a representative of the
policy committee of the shopmen ap-
preached Attorney Blackburn Ester
line conducting the injunction pro-
ceedings against the shopmen with the
question whether he would drop the
case if the strike were ended. Mr..
Esterline replied that he had no such
authority.
Chicago Sept. 13.-Positive con-
firmation that between sixty-five and
seventy-five railroads had signed sep
arate agreements with the shop crafts
unions here today could not be OBJ
tanned following the statement from
Washington from Secretary of Labor
Davis that the peace had been signed.
1t was believed, however. that the
agreement had been made.

DROUTH PARTLY BROKEN
Soaking Rains Reported During
Last Week Over Eastern Half of
Kansas-Corn Cutting Is Almost
Finished.
CBy S. D. Flora, MeteoroIogist.)

Soaking rains over the eastern half
of Kansas and the south-central coun-
ties, beginning the late afternoon of
Friday, the Sth, ended the severe
drouth in those sections, but the west
ern and many north-central counties
are still badly in need of moisture,
according to the reports of correspon-
dents of the weather bureau, which
cover conditions in all partr of the
state.
Thermometer readings of 95 de-
grees to 1O6/degrees were common
until Saturday and the week ending
September was in most sections the
hottest September week on record in
the state, but Il decided cooling off
that began Friday night brought
temperatures down almost to the frost
line by Monday morning.
Corn has matured and cutting is
mostly finished except in bottom lands
of the eastern third and the western
counties. Cutting grain sorghums is
beginning in most sections and in the
southwest counties is from a fourth to
half done.
Wheat threshing is practically fin
ished and ground generally prepared
for fall seeding but very little progress
was made in blowing or disking this
week owing to the hardness of the
soil. Where the heavy rains fell the
ground is now in fine shape. Sowing
made slow progress but is under way
in the western half of the state and
will soon spread to the eastern.
Chinch bug ravages which have in
flicted almost as much damage as the
drouth in eastern sections are ex-
pected to subside as result of the
wet cool weather.
In the extreme southwest counties
hrr ft1I1 n
about half done. The fourth crop of
alfalfa and pastures are poo but will
improve where rains fell. Apple pick
ing is general IN commercial orchards.

BEST IN LAST FIVE YEARS
Five Breeds Entered in Sheep
Department of Kansas Free Fair
This Year.
BY HAROLD HENDERSON.

The sheep department of the Kan

than five years. The five breeds en-
tered are: Shropshires. Hampshires,
Dorsets, Southdowns, Cotswolds. There
IS division of fat sheep this year.
The number of sheep entered is twice
as large as in 1921.
The Kansas State Agricultural COL
lege was represented in the judging
Monday with a flock in each division.
Four prominent sheep breeders of the
middle west made entries. They are:
e. T. White, Lexington, Neb.: George
Allen & Son, Lexington, Neb.: Ed
Hanson, Dean, Iowa; Clarence Lacey,
Meriden, Kan; and John Graham, Ell
Dora, Iowa. The sheep were judged

SHOWS SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT
But Topeka Flour Market Is Still
Below Normal.

The flour market in Topeka is
showing slight indications of improve
ment, tho still far from satisfactory,
and remaining still entirely a buyer s
market. There has been a slight
awakening in the inquiries from for
buyers so far Is the eastern coal fields
are concerned, but little solid ad-
vancement over the condition of last
week
Not all the mills in Topeka ran full
time during the past week. Those
which did run full time were operat-
ing on immediate shipments to fill up
depleted stocks of bakers who have
exhausted their supply of flour.
Few round lots of flour were con-
tracted for by Topeka mills.
The price is the most unsatisfactory
phase of the Topeka market THIS
week. Values have not advanced,
quotations today being identical with
those of last week.
Anything but a normal market is
still reported.
Quotations are as follows: Hard
winter wheat, short patent, $500 to
$3.50; straight, $3.50 to $500: first
clears, $3.50 to- $3.50; second clears
$3.40 to $500; low. grade. 1926 to
$3.50.
A continuation of the upward trend
of prices for millfeed is noted, to-
gether with a. extraordinarily good
demand. Bran is now quoted at S5c
per 100, and gray shorts at $1.25.>
Among the Topeka millers who arc
attending the National Bakers con-
vention at Chicago this week are F,
c. Kaths, Larabee Flour Mills Cor
poration, Kansas City; H. d. Yoder
vice president and sales manager. To-
peka Flour Mills, and R. J. Anderson
Kaw Milling company.
H. D. Yoder of the Topeka Flour
Mills company looks for an early, and
possibly an abrupt. increase in the
price of flour from this territory. He
points to the light receipts in Canada
and the northwestern milling centers
due to transportation difficulties as a
sure indication that the price is due
for an upward reaction soon. The
financial situation in Europe appears
less acute, judging by the inquiries
for flour received from European buy
ers. The calls for spot shipments
to fill depleted stocks points to a
scarcity of wheat in the hands of the
bakers. All these factors look toward
an>increase in the price Mr.. Yoder
believes.
