Extra Point
Rule Changed

By United Press
NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-Only one
rather minor change was made in
the football code for 1881, it was
announced by the national rules
committee Monday.
The one change effected has to DO
with the try for point after touch
down. Hitherto, the extra point
was automatically awarded if a foul
was committed by the defending
team and the point was forfeited
when the attacking team erred. This
season points will not be awarded
nor forfeited, but the usual distance
penalties inflicted.

DOME Bush still endeavoring to ar

That will leave John Ryan, late of
