GRID GUIDE OUT
WITH THREE new
RULE CHANGES
By CHICK KENNY

Book No. 200 arrived in Wash.
ington today. In fact a whole
bunch of them. But Book No.
2O0x will not last long, as young
men and old men, coaches and
players and undergraduates and
graduates will soon see to that.
Just in case you don't know, you
football.minded creatures you, who
have so cents or a buck riding on
five teams each Saturday in the
fall, the Guide is out.
d. C. REPRESENTED
Yep, it's the same old Guide,
crammed full of the past perform.
ances of earnest young men who
scored touchdownS, kicked points
after touchdown, scored in one
manner or another in the $4,000
college football games from last
September to New Years Day.
WaShington's colleges are we'll
represented in the scoring records.
so much so that it is suggested
that if you are interested, you
purchase the book. Frank (Buck)
O'Neill, of The Washington Times
sports staff, contributes the review
on District college football.
OF particular interest to the
football hounds however, is the
little yellow covered semi detached
section of the tome containing
the football rules. From all indt.
cations it looks like bad news for
the referees.
Here are the changes:
Rule 6, Section 2, Article l.
IF a kickoff goes out Of bounds
between the goal lines, a second
kickoff is no longer allowed, but
the ball must be put in play by
a scrimmage either on the op'
ponents' 35-yard line or at q
point 10 yards in from where it
crossed the Sideline."
CAPTAIN GETS CHOICE
This gives the opposing captain
a choice. Naturally if the second
kickoff goes out of bounds on the
five-yard line, the captain would
accept the scrimmage on his own
IS, but if it should go out on the
40, a choice of taking it 10 yards
from where it crossed the sideline
would gain five yards for his team.
The second major change re-
quireS that players must wear nu-
merals on both the front and back
of their jerseys.
Rule 10, Section i, Article f.
eff a free ball is kicked, unless .
penalty is called and accepted,
it is to be treated simply as
though the ball had been
touched"
The ruling follows that "a free
ball is struck by portion Of a
players body other than his foot:
This is not to be considered as
kicking a free ball."
The ruling on this item recalls
the famous soccer kick" by Larry
Kelley in the Yale-Navy game at
Baltimore. In other words, an
Interpretation would be that the
free ball must hit the foot and
no matter what the intention, II
the ball hits the foot the penalty
must be called. But if the ball
hit the knee, no penalty shall be
called.

IN INDUSTRIAL

Having fought off one threat
of O'Donnell'S Sea Grill, Coffey
Screen Company, dark horse of
the Industrial League. sits atop
the circuit today with four wins
in five starts. BY beating Ma
tional Savings Bank, Monday,
Coffey can clinch the second half
title and qualify to meet 'O'Don-
nell's first half champs, for the
league crown.
Manager Joe Hamilton Is rely
ing upon Lefty Arnold Heft, Wash
ingCon and Lee University finger,
to halt the Bankers. Either the
veteran Joe Carney or red-headed
Connie Roger will do the pitch
ing for the bank club. In either
event, it will leave Coffey con.
siderable obstacle in the path to
the title.
Should National Savings halt
the leaders, Coffey must play
O'Donnell's the following day. A
victory for the Grillmen would
put them in a tie for the second
half title.
This game will not be played
if Coffey halts the Bankers.
O'Donnell's and the Screeners
will then take a few days rest
before commencing their play-off
series.

ing sword. reproduced above, is ex-
pected to become as familiar in
health work as the double-barred
cross of the National tuberculosis
Association and the heavy square
cross of the American Red Cross.
The shield has been reproduced
on glued circular stickers, three and
a half inches in diameter, for use
on automobile windshields and on
the emblems and enlistment officers

The emblems and stickers go to
those enrolling in the army. En-
listment week runs officially thro-
ughOut the country from March 21st
to 9th.
"The flaming sword. according, to
Mrs. W. II. Beacon, state commander
of the Women's Field Army for Del
aware, has long been used by the
American Society for the Control of
Cancer as a symbol of the knowledge
necessary to combat the ignorance
and fear which surround cancer.
Every fighter needs a weapon. Our
army uses no bombs, no gas, nor ar
tillery. Its only weapons are truth
and knowledge If we strike hard
with them. however, our fight to con-
troll cancer will be won.
Around the hilt of the radiant
sword is twisted the caduceus, the |
winged serpents which are the en- |
blem of the medical profession indi- |
eating knowledge at the service of
mankind. Since our campaign is an
alliance of women and physicians. it
is fitting that the caduceus should
be included. In all the thirty-nine
states where women are campaigning
against cancer, in this, the first year
OF the army's existence, the work is
supervised by and in cooperation
with representatives of the State
medical societies"
On the stickers and pins. the field
of the shield is blue. the words

Army are in white. as is the sword
and the flames surrounding it are
