delectable environment, about
- geles, the Foot Ball Rules
Committee begins its annual session
today. Playing the part of hosts are
the two West Coast representatives of
the committee, w. o. Hunter, director
Of athletics at the University of South
ern California, and Alonzo Stagg Of
the College of the Pacific Plans for
entertainment, sightseeing and the
like indicate that a good time will
be had by all.
Since betting on foot ball, accord
Ing to all accounts, has become Ma
tion-wide practice, heavily indulged,
4 this writer herewith offers a tip
which any one who wants to put up
money without risk of loss can play
to the wrapper of his bank roll. The
slow whistle will be legislated out of
foot ball. What else the committee
may do is Observation-Disclosures are
1t will do nothing radical, nothing that
will in any way affect the game as
now played.
Simple Cure Is Seen.
RUT it is absolutely foregone that
next Fall referees will have no
option about blowing their whistles
to end plays. It will be mandatory
that they signal dead ball the instant
1t has ceased to advance. The way
In which this will be brought about
will be simple. A rule to this effect
already stands in the rule book. But
iy1 hn k,xy
supplementary ruling giving the ref
cree discretion in blowing the whistle
when ball carrier, though. tackled,
was still on his feet. So all that will
have to be done will be to strike out
the supplementary paragraph.
It might interest lot of gridiron
Enthusiasts to know that for many
years past no issue relating to the
judicial side of foot ball has caused
so much feeling, has involved condi-
tions so dangerous to the solidarity of
the Rules Committee, as that relating
to the slow whistle. Upon one occa-
sion, inded it required all of Walter
Okeson's tact and diplomatic genius
in his capacity as chairman of the
committee to keep the body intact.
IN FACT, one important resignation
- was handed in and accepted by the
parent body the N C. A. A.. before
Okeson got matters adjusted, with the
eventual withdrawal of acceptance of
the resignation by the national ath-
\letic body following withdrawal of the
resignation itself. 49, ---a-.s4as.-.
And, in remote event Of failure of
the committee to eliminate the slow
whistle, prediction is herewith made
that more than one resignation from
the rule-making body will be an i'm
mediate result.
Ready to Resign.
However. such a contretemps Is, as
said, a remote possibility. Action, as
above set forth, will be taken, with
probably not more than two dissent
4 ing votes. Meanwhile, the commit
teemen who left their homes in vari-
Gus parts of the country for Southern
California week ago today, all ex-
penses paid until they return to their
f1resides, have arrived at the scene of
deliberations in excellent humor and
60 in no mood for controversy.
