Your committee deplores the
tendency on the part of certain
spectators to invade the playing
field" said Okeson. In some cases
this happens while the game is I'M
finished. This sort of rowdiness is
a real menace to football and often
makes disagreeable finale to what
was otherwise thrilling and en-
joyable spectacle.
This is, of course, beyond the
province of the rules committee, but
we recommend that the National
Collegiate Athletic Association take
cognizance of this deplorable ten
dency and make every effort
through its membership to put an
END to this silly and dangerous
practice"
AS for the football rules them
selves. Okeson recommended that
they be let alone for the good of
the game.
Many Rules Not Needed
Suggested changes should be
carefully scrutinized and adopted
only If it appears that such changes
are vitality necessary for the good
of the game" he said.
Many changes already have been
suggested, many of them based on
single happening in a single game.
such as the widely debated pass
interference which enabled Notre
Dame to tie Army in the last min
ute of play.
There are too many rules in the
book now which were drafted to
cover exceptional cases." Okeson
said THAT is what makes them
so complex. If every time that a
break in a game caused the defeat
of a team we made a change to
prevent a recurrence of such a
break. the rules would quickly be-
come mere odge-podge of excep-
tons. To use golf term. you can
not eliminate an occasional rub of
the green
Okeson reported that 1885 was
the greatest season football ever
had, stresSing the fact that great
strides were made by coaches in
both tactics and strategy.
High School CO. Operation
The only definite sentiment for a
change concerned the supplement-
airy note dealing with lateral passes,
which gives the runner who is on his
feet, even though he be held by an
opponent, the right to run, pass, or
kick until the whistle blows.
There is fairly pronounced SEN
timent that the supplementary note
is not needed and that the rules
would be better without it." said
Okeson. Evidence of the past
season indicates that the offense
can get along we'll enough without
it."
Okeson praised the work of off,

ton with the National High School

Roger Toll Visits
R0b't Yellowtail
Yellowstone Park Head Spends
Thursday With Head of Crow
Indian Reserve.

Superintendent Robert Yellow
tail of the Grow Indian reserva-
ton had as his guest, Thursday,
Roger w. Toll, superintendent of
the Yellowstone National PARK.
Together they spent the day view
ing the grandeur of the Big Horn
canyon, from the west rim. Supt.
Toll while here made the Tribune
Herald office a pleasant call. He
stated that he found the ranges
in the Big Horn mountains all
ideal feeding ground for the cou-
pie hundred buffalo and elk shipped
from the park to Supt. Yellowtail
last fall, and that the animals
are doing well here. He says
there is still a surplus Of buffalo,
elk and black bear in the park
and that it is the policy of the
park to use the surplus alive
where possible. He congratulated
The Crow Indians on the manner
in which they have cared for the
animals sent them last year and
thought It particularly appropri-
ate to return to the Indians a
norton of the buffaloes taken
from them by the whites In days
gone by.
