The American association jinx still

Rochester won the international
pennant in 1928. and 1929 but lost
the "little world SERIES" first to In

The Colonels battered six runs
across the plate in the fourth inning
and eventually won z to 3. The Red

southpaw ace, was stingy with his
blows in the pinches.
The game may cost Rochester the
loss Of George Anderson, shortstop,

derson hurt his ankle at second base
in the fourth inning.
The two teams meet in the second

Change in Rules
Affecting Kicks
Passed by Board
Defensive Team Will Not Have
Alternative in Putting
Ball Into Play

Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 25.-(AP)>
Members Of the national football
rules committee have approved in a
telephone vote a change in rule
seven, section six, article n on page
81 of the 1880 football guide, elimi-
mating the defensive teams alterna-
tive in putting a punted ball into
play and defining when a ball shall
be considered dead.
DR.. F. A. Lambert, Columbus,
member Of the national committee,
announced the alteration, which read
as follows: ..
IF a player on the team which
last kicked the ball SO touches or
RECEIVERS it. the opponents may put it
in play at the spot where he first
touches it. If they do not choose
to exercise this privilege after the
ball becomes dead, the touching OF
the ball shall be disregarded. If the
kicking team RECEIVERS the ball it is
dead at the point Of recovery"
Before the change the article read:
"If a player on the team which last
kicked the ball so touches or recov-
ers it, the opponents may put it in
play either at the spot where he
touched it or where the ball becomes
dead. If the kicking team legally
RECEIVERS the ball. it is dead at the
point of recovery"
The ruling. which had caused heat

Navy Has Veteran

Reserve Is Weak
Bill Ingram Has 10 Experienced
Men Out of a. Back for
1890 Season

Annapolis, Nd, Sept. 25.-(AP)-
Bill Ingram, starting his fifth sea-
o as head coach of the Navy foot
ball team, is reaping the benefits of
a system started four years ago
when he looked to the future and
sought a continuous stream Of sea-
soned material year after year.
Graduation last June removed Is
of the A members Of the varsity
squad, but most of those left have
had considerable experience.
The Navy mentor sees in the loss
of many men the removal of an OBJ
stacle which bothered him last sea-
son. that Of finding his strongest
combination from the wealth of ma
terial at hand. His greatest fear is
of injuries as experienced replace
ments are far from abundant.
He anticipates difficulty in filling
the three center places in the line
and one end and in finding a man to
replace Joe Clifton, plunging full
back and defensive star.
The backfield is giving the coach
staff less worry. Antrim and Hag-
berg, both of whom saw much serv-
ice as substitutes for Clifton, have
returned and Erck of the 1929 plebes
has shown promise. One of the
greatest hopes of the middle outfit
is Lou Kim. Johnny Cannon and
Jack Grabtree, regulars, also are on
hand.
