Grid Rules to Stand for Year
Despite a Demand for Changes

while than an occasional fieeting thrill
from fuke play.
THE other two important changes In
the 1929 rules were aimed at the
screened pass and the So-cAlled boot
leg ball. Both Of these changes have
convincingly accomplished their object.
The bootleg ball has disappeared. The
officials and coaches have co-operated
in making effective the revised word
ing of the rule prohibiting the screen
ing of the forward pass and the
screened pass We trust has gone perma-
nently into the discard.
1T has been interesting to note dur
ing the past season an increasing num-
Der of goals from the field. The
coaches are beginning to realize that
moving back the goal posts "a disputed
point) simply means that the ball must
be brought 10 yards closer to the goal
line before trying for n goal 1t also
is gratifying to note a more widespread
use of the punt as powerful weapon
Of attack
THE recodification Of the rules now
is in its fourth draft, and the improved
code will be in the hands of all before
the opening of the 1880 season."

to those that cOacn college Teams.
It generally is expected that DR..
Kennedy will prove very success
full in handling affairs of the
N. C. A. A. He not only has the
resrect and admiration of faculty
members of colleges, but also Is
greatly admired and liked by the
coaches. He is credited with as
clear an understanding OF college
sports and their problems as any
man in the country. Certainly
his talk Monday night before the
coaches association and his re-
marks yesterday afternoon In &C
cepting the presidency OF the N.
C. A. A. were entirely indicative OF
that distinction.
The Carnegie report did not
create any such furore as had
heen looked for by some. There
was virtually no discussion OF 1t
on the floor, and the action taken
by the N. c. A.. A. was entirely
sane.
At the morning session DR.. Howard
J. Savage Of the Carnegie Foundation
made an address, In which he mem
toned some of the criticisms that had
been made Of the report, but added
nothing to the report other than to say
that the report was never intended as
q prescription for the cure Of any OF
the evils which college athletics has TO
contend. The whole inference to be
gotten from DR.. Savage's address was
that college athletics has rightful and
fine place in the educational programs
Of the country, but that to make this
place as effective as possible some fac
tors ought to be eliminated. Principal
among these was the subsidiZation OF
athletes wherever practiced. DR.. saw
age also said that there is no immediate
cure for some OF the evils In college
athletics and that the college them
selves must through slop processes grad
ually eliminate their troubles.
Takes English View.
President Frank P. Day Of Union
College spoke at considerable length on
''The challenge of the Carnegie Re-
port" In his address were proposed
possibilities by which to eliminate con-
ditions which he considered primarily
the cause of most Of the difnculties en-
countered In college athletics. But he
also rather jocularly remarked at the
beginning Of his talk that he did not
feel the confidence Of David in attempt
ing to kill q Goliath that his sugEes-
tions would be very pleasantly received.
One Of President Days suggestions was
that gate receipts be eliminated, which
suggestion was considered years ago by
those In charge of athletics in many
colleges and discarded as valueless.
President Day is Canadian and for
merly was a colonel in the English
army, and his speech seemed some
what actuated from the English point
of view
With these addresses . part Of the
morning session, there was q good deal
of interest in the report Of the commit
tee which was considering what action
the association should take on the Car
negie report. When the report from the
