BOOTLEGBALLN NOT
NOTICED THIS YEAR
Use Checked by Fast Work
of Rules Committee-NeW
Code Is Planned.
BY TED vOSBURGH,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

n YEW YORK, November 13.-The
bootleg foot ball, bane. of the
life of gridiron officials the
l. latter part of last season, ap-
parently has vanished from
the earth as a result of vigorous &C.
tivity against it, reports E. K. Hall,
chairman of the national foot ball rules
committee.
mot a single instance of use of the
bootleg foot ball has come to my at
tention, this year." said the middle
time to head the foot ball law-making
body in addition to his duties as vice
president of the American Telephone &
Telegraph Co.
ut looks as though we rlipped It in
the bud when we nailed it at the source
few months ago by warning all the
manufacturers and by making our
specifications for the Official ball more
definite" he said.
ct received one wailing letter fromsa
manufacturer who said he had a big
stock Of the bootleg balls on hand, but
that was ALL"
Bootleg Foot Ball Out.
"The illegal balls that made their
appearance In considerable numbers
late last season were designed pri-
marily to aid in passing. Accordingly
they were made with a pronounced
'snout' on which the pasSer could get
a grip. But this season we have had
no more reports of a salesman an
preaching a coach with his wares and
announcing, I see you have a good
passing team; you had better get one
OF our special balls, designed partic-
ularly for passing"
AS to the present foot ball rules, Mr..
Hall indicated there was little pros
pect OF any but the most minor changes
IN the actual content of the code. The
new tumble rule, he thinks, is here to
stay.
In its form and phrasing, however
the rule book is being made over from
front to back. A tentative draft of
the recodified rules in fact already has
been completed and a printers proof
was placed on Mr.: Halls desk today.
Committee Experienced.
"On the committee intrusted with
this important piece of work." MIR. Hail
remarked, ARE william S. Langford,
Trinity, secretary of the rules COM
mittee; Walter Okeson, Lehigh; A. w.
Palmer, Haverford, and F. A. Lambert,
Ohio State, well known foot ball Of
ficials. These four consider better
acquainted with the technical rules OF
the game than any other four men in
the country" Mr.. Hall is chairman
Of the committee.
II got these men together around q
pingpong table in the basement of my
home, in Montclair, and we went at the
job" he said! Don't say it is finished
because we will have to go over these
proofs most carefully and change words

1928 GRID V|CTORS
PICKED TO REPEAT
Penn, Colgate, Dartmouth
Pinned for Saturdays
Big Battles.
BY WILLIAM J. CHAPMAN,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

n VIEW YORK, November 13-In
three of the five games involV-
NJ ing major Eastern foot ball
4 rivalries Of long standing next
Saturday. victory now seems to
be headed toward the standards Of the
elevens which won last year-Pennsyl-
vania, Colgate and Dartmoutf-but
the other two, Yale and Pittsburgh, ap-
parently have fine chance to avenge
1928 defeats.
Yale remains a slight favorite over a
Princeton eleven which at last has
gained momentum, and the Pittsburgh
Panther expects to win from Carnegie
Tech outfit which held Notre Dame to
a touchdown.
Princeton once more depends upon
the magic of Bill Roper'S voice to f1re
the Tigers to a supreme effort, but the
coach's words have some substantial
backing in the blocking of Barfleld and
the running of Ed Wittmer.
To maintain its place among the I'M
defeated and the united, Pittsburgh
must turn its strong offensive into high
gear against Carnegie Tech on Satur-
day. The Plaid was barely nosed out
by Notre Dame, to 0, but also was
held to scoreless tie by washington
and Jefferson, which Pittsburgh de-
feated by 81 to 0 last week.
Penn Is Favored.
Columbia will present a battered
front to Pennsylvania, which expects
to duplicate its 34-to-7
triumph of last season.
Without AL MarSterS, Dartmouth has
no hope of repeating last years 28-to-0
walkaway against Cornell, but Dart
mouth nevertheless Is chosen to spoil
Cornell's perfect record of six victories.
Harvard will be up against tough
in the fine Holy Cross eleven.
Colgate has every reason to hope for
another victory over Syracuse, which
was turned back by 80 to 6 last season.
Lehigh seems strong enough to trim
Rutgers in the middle three semi-flnal.
Penn State expects to pay back
Bucknen for 6-to-0 reverse in the 1928
Missouri will be favored over New
York University at the Yankee Stadium.
and Marquette may have a shade over
Boston College in another East-WeSt
affair.

Queens, Western Center,
Shows Grit by Playing

A rare exhibition of gameness was
furnished by Quincy Owens, stellar
center of the Western High School
foot ball team, yesterday in its game
with Central, when he played
throughout the contest with an in
fected elbow, refusing to give up,
even after the wound broke.
Coach Dan Ahern, realizing that
Owens had a painful infection, in
formed him that he could play pro-
vided he furnished the permission
of his family physician. This Owens
did not do, but the daughty cap
tain was so keen to play that Ahern
finally consented to permit him to
get in the game, provided he got
permission of a physician of the
coach'S choosing. This doctor adj
vised against Owens playing. but
said he would not order him not
to do so.
Despite that the elbow was so
sore he could hardly lift it. Owens
not only stuck to the game, but
played in his usual stalwart fashion.

Trojan, NosO Ill, May Fly
To Chicago for Contest

LOS ANGELES, November 10
(P1.-Harry Edelson, first string half
back of the University of Southern
California gridsters, probably Will
not be in the lineup when the
Trojans face Notre Dame on Soldier
Field, Chicago.
Not until Coach Howard Jones
and his 38 proteges had left last
night for the East did 1t become
known that Edelson was in nos
pital suffering from influenza. Ar
rangements have been made for him
to fly to Chicago Friday with DR..
Harold Van Metre if he RECEIVERS sur
ficiently by that time, but university
officials said he would not be per-
mitted to make the trip unless ms
recovery was complete.
Marger Apsit, who played almost
the entire game against Metre Dame
last year and scored one OF the
u. S. G. touchdowns, probably Will
start in Edelson's stead II substi-
tuition is necessary.
The team, travelling in a 10-coacn
special train, will arrive at Engie-
wood station in Chicago at 8 am.
Friday. A long stop at Mcpherson,
Kans., will enable Coach Jones to
work out train kinks.

Western Is Considering
Spring Gridiron Drills

Western High is seriously consid-
ering holding Spring foot ball prac-
tice next year, it has been an
nounced by Dan Ahern, director of
athletics and foot bali and base
ball coach at the West End School.
Ahern said that the point has been
reached where it seems imperative
that Western get in Spring training
and more preseason work IL It is
to keep pace with the other public
high school elevens.
Should the Spring grid drills be
started at the school across the
creek, Clifton r. Moore, who coached
the Western basket ball team sue
cessfully last Winter, will replace
Ahern as tutor of the base bali
squad, the latter said.

mentS.
Views Are COntrasted.
Those who like the chances of South
ern California see the TrojanS bounding
across the country to atone for their
unexpected setback at the hands OF
California. U. S. G. has finished its big
"shoot the woYlSS" against Notre Dame,
whereas the HOLSTERS still have North
western and the Army to worry about.
Notre Dame, on the other hand, has
taken its last two games "in stride" to
be at the peak for Southern California.
For the first time since beating Car
negie, Rockne himself will be on the
sidelines, even though his ailing leg VIII

ogy of this alone viii be big stimulant
to the Hoosiers.
Though it may be argued most of
Notre Danes victims so far have also
been manhandled by other teams, the
fact remains that Rockne's ,Ramblers
have convincingly disposed of one of
the Severest schedules tackled by any
team. The workmanlike play of the
team. directed on the field by Frank
Carideo, one Of the best quarterbacks
of the season, has impressed even its
critics. The polish and the punch is
unquestionably there.
Rooster BackfleId Smooth.
Notre Dame has smoother-working
backfield array, with Carideo, Martin
Brill. Jack Elder and either Savoldi or
Mullins at fullback, but Southern c Ii
fornia has a wealth of fast runners, in

coast experts as ''the man to watch at
Chicago" Ineligible last year and out
of action earlier in the season because
of a broken bone in his foot, Moses is
said to have returned to action in fine
form.
The part that the two strong, hard
charging lines win play In this drama
may be the decisive factor, however
much the spotlight may be on Carideo
or Elder, Duff1eld or Moses. Thanked

SOUTH BEND, Ind, November 10
Spurred by the return of Knute Rockne
to the coaching helm, Notre Danes
gridiron forces plunged full steam
ahead today in preparation for the Uni
verSity of Southern California.
Rockne, who has been confined to
bed for two weeks because of an in
fected leg, is drilling his men mainly
on fundamentals, the lack of which
almost cost them their game with
Drake last Saturday.
We've got to do some Old-fashioned
blocking and 'ackling if we hope to
defeat the Trojans Saturday." Rockne
warned. "I don't want to hear OF my
team standing back and cheering a
running mate like last Saturday. When
we have the ball, get in there and
ward OF the tacklers."
