Point and Dead
Ball Rule Under Fire

the meeting of the American Foot
ball Coaches Association Tuesday
and Wednesday at the Hotel Penn
Sylvania probably will be the most
interesting gatherings, although
some important messages for the
sports world may be issued from:
The meeting of the College Track
Coaches of America on Wednesday at
the Hotel Paramount
The convention of Eastern College Bas-
ketball Coaches Association at Hotel
New Yorker on the same day.
The meeting of the Student Health As
ISOLATION at the Aston on Thursday.
The conclave of the Eastern Collegiate
Swimming Coaches Association at the
Aston on Thursday.
This meeting of the football
coaches, usually the stcrmiest of the
bunch, promises to be the most
peaceful since the association was
organized in 1921. There may be
some debate over possibilities of
aboliShing the dead ball rule,
abolishing the point after touch
down and securing for coaches a
voice on the N. C. A. A. football
rules committee.
The football coaches must elect a
new president to succeed DR.. Nal
Stevens, recently resigned head
coach at Yale. There1l be little
competition for the presidency be-
cause this post has come to be re-
garded as coaching graveyard.
Five presidents have been retired
from their coaching positions while
in office.
One of the most important hap
penings of the week will be the Sc
lection of a new chairman of the
football rules committee by the N.
G. A A This committee has be-
come perhaps the most discussed
committee in sports. The recent
death of f K. Hall leaves the
craftsmanship vacant.
William S. Langford, secretary, is
most prominently mentioned for the
position, with Walter Okeson, direc-
tor of the eastern association for
selection Of football officials, men
toned to succeed Langford as sec
rotary.
