NEW YORK, October 9.--Although
not going so far as to restrict the drib-
BILE to a single bounce, an action which
was taken last year and then rescinded
after storm of controversy, the new
basket ball rules announced Yesterday
for 1928-29 have considerable to say
about regulating this spectacular feature
of the game, according to the Associated

A new clause is added Rule IS, Sec

"A player shall not hold, trip, charge
or push an opponent whether or not
either player has possession of the ball
If dribbler charges into an opponent
or makes personal contact with an OPP
ponent, without an apparent effort 10
avoid such contact, personal foul shall
be called on the dribbler.

"If, despite the dribbler's effort to
avoid contact, personal contact ensues,

DIXIE GRID TEAMS
TO INVADE NORTH
Cross Mason and Dixon Line
for Half Dozen Games
This Week End.
BY HERMERT W. BARKER.
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, October 9.-There's a
decided southern tinge to the East's
foot ball schedule this week and that
may be reason enough for extensive
mourning on the Atlantic seaboard next
Saturday night
A strong Colgate teams defeat by
Vanderbilt is too recent memory to
permit an eastern coach to tackle
southern opposition with anything but
fear. The tendency in this section is
to view with alarm until an intersec-
tional victory has been safely tucked
away.
The South is sending six teams into
the hostile territory north of the Mason
and Dixon line and has high hopes of
recording at least one or two victories.
Duke Plays Friday.
Duke starts the invasion in a Column
bus day battle with Boston College at
the Hub on Friday. The Durham, N c.,
collegians turned back South Dakota,
rs to 6, last Saturday, but that scarcely
equals Boston Colleges achievement in
giving Navy a Go lacing at Annapolis.
The following day the invasion be-
comes general. The members of the one
time big three all engage southern
teams with Yale drawing the hardest
nut to crack-Georgia. 1t Is foot ball
history that Georgia gave Yale's great
team of 1927 it sonly setback and the
way Mercer was annihilated SO to 0,
last Saturday, indicates that the Red
and Black again may replace the Blue
as the predominant color scheme at
New Haven for the day.
Princeton and Harvard have not quite
SO much reason to worry as Yale. The
Tigers take on Virginia, beaten by South
Carolina last week. The Crimson meets
North Carolina which was hard put to
pull out a rs to 10 victory over Mary
land.
Colgate, which already has felt the
strength of southern foot ball, clashes
with Virginia Poly whose strong eleven
has whipped It's first two opponents In
overwhelming fashion.
Cornell Has Easy Foe. 81
Cornell seems to have the easiest part
of eastern responsibility to bear in the
battle with the south for Gloomy Gill;
Dobie's squad has drawn Hampden-Sid-
ney for its next battle. Hampden-Sid-
ney fell, 32-7, before v. P. I. on Sat-
urday.
Navy and Brown also will be called
upon to carry an eastern banner into
intersectional combat, Navy Bill In
grams charges, already beaten twice,
meets Notre Dame, beaten once, in Sol
der Field. Chicago. Brown takes OH
the University of Dayton at Providence.
For the rest, the battles between Pitts
burgh and West Virginia and Fordham
and New York University, seem to offer
the most closely matched foot ball of
the day, although Penn State, after its
experience with Gettysburg last Sat-
urday, expects anything but picnic
with Bucknell.

w YITH the exception of George
"A town, every local eleven has
wv plenty of action cut out for
it this week. The Blue and
Gray has a fairly easy OPP
ponent and ought to win by a good
margin, but each of the other instit=-
tons is to be met by an exceptionally
strong combination, If the results of
last Saturdays games are to be taken
as a criterion.
Georgetown's opponent for this week.
Lebanon Valley, was in tie game with
City College of New York, to 6, but
the other teams to be met by local
schools were victorS.
George Washington. for instance, aft
er losing to Fordham by 20 to 0, this
Saturday is to face Lafayette at EaSton,
and all that Lafayette did last week was
to beat Muhlenberg by 56 to 0. Truly,
the Buff and Blue has anything but an
easy afternoon in store.
Schuylkill College of Reading, Pa. is
to be Gallaudet's opponent, and all that
Gallaudet has to worry about is involved
in meeting a team that was barely de-
feated by Bucknell and which whipped
Mount st. Mary's by almost as big a
score as did Georgetown.
C. u. Has Big Job.
villanova, which comes here to play
Catholic University, gave Loyola College
of Baltimore trimming, "a to 0. Cath
Ollie University ran up a big score
against American University, but will
face in Villanova a team that has great
potential strength and has been able to
develop it.
American University goes to Annapolis
to play st. Johns, and st. Johns hand
ed Randolph Macon a defeat by % to z.
And Maryland, at Columbia, S. c..
probably will go against the best eleven
that has ever represented the Univer-
Sity of South Carolina. Certainly no
South Carolina eleven of previous years
has ever been able to whip Chicago by
one touchdown and Virginia by four
touchdownS to two. The Old Liners,
after having faced the best eleven North
Carolina has had in years, now are con-
fronted with the prospect of about the
same thing in South Carolina.
Georgetown of all the local schools
seems to have better than an even
chance to win. Lebanon Valley was able
to get a tie with City College of New
York, but that indicates nothing other
than that the Pennsylvanians have just
about good enough eleven to give the
Blue and Gray the kind of workout it
desires.
G. w. Is Up Against 1t.
1t is not likely that George Washing
Ton can expect much from its game with
Lafayette except defeat A year ago the
Buff and Blue was rather lucky in hit
ting Rutgers and Fordham when neither
had q very good team, but this Fall
there is an entirely different kind of
opposition to be encountered. And not
only does the Buff and Blue have an ex-
teptionally hard list of teams to face,
4 ut it is going to be very lucky if it can
ut through its season with such small
injured list as it had in 1927.
Lafayette is the highest scoring team
of the East, having run up 124 points
In two games.
1t is not likely that American U. will
be able to do more than make a good

but more attention than hitherto is to
be directed to the dribblers response
bility."
Among other changes are provisions
designed to penalize guarding from the
legal for player to capitalize his
height by tapping the ball and then
catching 1t on two successive jump
balls, and stating that IAN unguarded
player may hold the ball indefinitely in
the court, but as soon as an opponent
takes q position close by (say within a
yard of the player with the ball, the
latter must get the ball into play"
The new code also makes it clear
that ball striking an official does not
become a dead bill
