DIFFICULT FINISH.

The Youngstown course, which is
built on rolling land, has been pro-
nOunccd by many Of the contestants
the most pleasing as to terrain that
they have ever played. The finishing
hole is unusual in tfat it is only 40
yards long from the bacl, tee. Almost
the entire carry is filled by an arti-
fetal lake with the green elevated 80
feet above the water at the top of an
almost perpendicular bank. The
groun rises still higher behind the
green to the clubhouse. allowing spec

FOOTBALL RULE
CHANGES ARE
IMPORTANT
Pulling Blocked Kick Rule
Clsrified-Mew Off,
side Rule.

Football fans who follow the game
closely will notice several changes in
play this fall.
The annual football guide, issued
Thursday, discloses the alterations
in their entirety as the national foot.
ball rules committee finally wrote
them into the code.
The most radical change is that
which sets forth the rights Of play
ers following the blocking of kick
behind the line of scrimmage.
HARD TO FOLLOW.
In the past it has been difficult
for officials to determine whether
the kick was blocked by player on
the Offense or the defense.
Rule eighteen now permits any
player to recover kicked ball, blocked
or otherwise, which docs not cross
the line Of scrimmasc. 1t is to be
treated the same as n fumblcd ball.
To avoid difficulties arising from .
partially blocked kick, the new rules
provide that such a kick, partially
blocked or touched by player of
either side, after which it crosses the
line Of scrimmagc, shall be played in
the same manner as if the kick had
been gotten away clearly, the only
exception, Of course, being that if
player of the kiGRcr's side touches
the ball on an attempt at field goal
and the goal is made, it shall not
be allowed.
OFFSIDE RULE CHANGED.
The penalty for an offsidr-a move
ment before the ball is snappcd-in
the scrimmaSe line remains the same,
1fivc yards, but, instead of the often
lfsiye team getting first down when
kthe defense commits an offside, the
N Joint to be gained remains the same,
Unless pushing the ball up five yards
Z llvanccs it past this point, in which
of couraC, it's first down.
Nrhis change will save many foot

Oh the third try, committed an off

Now merely the fivc-yard penalty
is assessed and the offensive team
does not get first down but is forced
TO make tho extra yard.

has the right TO receive the kickoff
if he cares to take it, in addition to
the other choices.
The penalty for clipping has been
made % yards from the SPOT Of the
