carry through. The summary:

New York, Dec. 3o.-(P)-Contro-

Tower holds that the Huddle plan
Is within the rules provided the

when the center gives the signal
with his arms, it is customary to let
him hesitate a couple of seconds OUT

games next fall will be thankful to
learn that the eastern coaches and
officials have frowned on the huddle
system as it is being used at the
present time. The huddle last year.
while it looked very pretty, slowed up
the game to a noticeable extent. one
team was timed ar seconds
on huddle, while still another was
timed in 46 seconds. Such delays are
annoying to the fans who go to the
