NEW YORK, March 2s.-Many of
the big college foot ball teams
started their spring training this
week. And we'll they might start
early. for the brand of foot ball that
will be played next fall will be faster
than any ever before witnessed in the
history of the sport, and the players
will need all the time they can get
to prepare themselves for the new
game
More speed was the keynote of the
changes made in the rules by the
foot ball rules committee, at its meet
ing here last week. And much of the
credit for the speeding up Of the
sport is due to one mana Mr.. Coffin
of Boston. a member of the commit
tee and a close student of the sport
who has been plugging away at this
idea for years.
Cofin's plan. which he has advanced
before, was that. instead of limiting
a game to a certain number of min
utes, with the obvious possibilities
this leaves for stalling, game
should be made to consist of a def
nitely fixed number of plays.
While the committee could not see
it's way clear to adopt this program,
1t did take strenuous steps to elimi-
nate chances for stalling. The ma
ture of these steps will be discussed
in succeeding articles of this series.

HITTING FROM THE TOP OF
THE SWING
Mainly a Matter Of Balance.

Jock Hutchinson is frequently
asked whether the stroke with the
irons is more of hit than that with
the wood. His answer is that the
difference is in the full swing, which
is usual with the wood. and is short
ened little with the iron
The trouble with. the full swing is
that in making it the body must be
turned much more to the right on
the baekswing. and with the body thus
wound up. any effort is more likely
to throw it out of balance.
This, according to Jock. is one of
the commonest golf troubles, and in
