NORTH CAROLINA QUINT
Is STRONG ON DEFENSE

Fine work in practice by Alexander and
Choate makes It seem likely that the
North Carolina quint, four times South
ern champions since 1922, VIII have
four stellar guards to bank on this
season.
Brown and Marpet, both regulars last
year, were two of three letter men
back at the opening of practice. Both
were looking better than ever and now
1t seems that Coach Jim Ashmore will
have a quartet Of defensive men.
The strength at guard is offset by q
lack Of veteran material at the forward
berths. Neiman, Edwards, Slater, Gle
land and Hutchinson are the leading
oEausive players.

By DANIEL J. FERRIS,


Secretary treasurer, National Amateur Ath-
letic Union.
By the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, January 10.-The
M second year Of the Olympiad Is
usually quite dull as compared
with the other three, but this
year promises TO be an exception to the
rule. Everything, even at this early date,
points TO 1880 being an extremely active
year, at least in track and field, SWIM
ming, boxing, wrestling and gymnastics,
the major sports on the Olympic pro-
gram over which the Amateur Athletic
Union has jurisdiction in the United
States.
The initial indoor track meet of the
season last Saturday night in Brooklyn,
with over 600 athletes participating, Is
indicative of the interest in track in an
off-year. More than so large open in
door track meets have been sanctioned
by the A. A. u. in the Eastern half Of
the United States (the only part OF the
country where indoor track is practiced
extensively. These meets will furnish
plenty of competition for the athletes
desiring to run during the Winter
NOt even al NlyulPlC JCoA .
have there been more meets scheduled.
In recent years the games committees
in charge of indoor meets have felt that
foreign talent is necessary for the sue
cessful conduct of their meets, and
although the national officers of the
A. A. u. do not share this belief, never
theless they extended invitations to sew
eral countries to send athletes here this
Winter.
The international athletic rule which
forbids an athlete from receiving ex-
penses for a longer period than 81 days
in foreign country places foreign ath-
letes coming to the United States and
our athletes going abroad, under con-
siderable handicap. as they are called
upon to compete In their first race
few days after stepping on the steamer
This rule Is the answer to the declina-
tions thus far from the foreign countries
invited.
The American athletes probably will
benefit by the absence of foreign talent
through being able to bask in the lime
light and publicity which otherwise
would be showered on the foreign stars
Recognition by newspaper writers OF the
improvement shown by an athlete very
often furnishes the needed encourage
/, sment to make him strive for greater
heights on the ladder of athletic fame
Invitations are already in hand fol
track and field and swimming teams Il
Tour Europe next Summer; also for {
mack team to 60 to South Africa. ]

EXTRA GRID POINT
SEEN ON WAY OUT
Other Recodification Work
Delays Coaches Vote
for Abolition.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

TINE foot ball rules committee, the
writer has reason to believe, was
strongly impressed by that
clause in the report Of the rule
change committee Of the Coaches As
ISOLATION advocating the elimination Of
the point after touchdown. Facts adj
duced by three coaches appointed to
consider changes showed q lot Of pains
taking research, and as to the point
after touchdown the findings were par
ticulariy convincing.
It may be said that among the COM
mitteemen the play for point after
touchdown is not generally liked and
its days are numbered. Had it not been
for the suggestion of the chairman Of
the rules committee, e. K. Hall, that
any material changes in the rules this
year would seriously affect the work Of
recodification now going forward, the
chances are that the vote Of the
Coaches Association at its recent meet
ing in New York would have been
heavily in favor of ditching the play
after touchdown.
Rules In Type.
The recodified rules are in type. The
proofs will now be submitted to various
non-members of the committee, whose
interest in foot ball Is active for crtti-
cisms and suggestions. It is hoped that
when the rulemakers hold their annual
meeting at Absecon, N. j., next March,
the text viii receive final approval.
Difficulties in the way of setting forth
some of the rules with primer simplicity
have been found; it Is said. And this
would naturally be the case in view OF
the necessity of referring to other rules.
There has to be q certain legal devious
ness about such rules II only to pre-
vent devious gridiron thinkers from
devising plans to beat them. But even
here there will be Qualification in the
way of subheadings and the like and
more lucid phraseology.
Ball Coaches Banned.
The Yale Athletic Associations effort
four years ago to have all athletic con-
tests with Harvard and Princeton played
without the direction Of coaches came
q step nearer to realization when Yale
and Harvard came to an agreement to
ban coaches from the bench during ball
games. Yale already has similar
agreement with Princeton. It won't be
long fiow-and, perhaps, some such ar
rangement will be seriously proposed for
foot ball among these colleges.
