Hockey Loop Rule Changes
Promised to Boost Game
.Moguls Seek
Faster PLAY
For Games
MINOR CHANGES

Designed to give the spectators a
faster game and to eliminate STALL
ing and rough play, several rule
changes were in effect for
the National Hockey League fol.
lowing adoption by a meeting Of
the board of governors.
The governors believe that tht
changes, radically affecting the
penalty shot rule, making Icing"
of the puck Improbable and
penalizing players for infractions
after the whistle is blown. will
improve the game.
The most important change
adopted was the moving Of the
penalty shot marker is feet nearer
the goal. Heretofore a man max
ing a penalty shot Skated into
a 10-foot circle 80 feet from the
net and made the shot from any
point within the circle.
MUST SHOOT BEFORE
Under the changed rule. tn e
player must now make his shot
before his skates cross a red line
to be painted is feet in front Of
each goal. The man making the
penalty shot picks up the puck
on the red line in front Of his
own goal and skates up the ice
to shoot from any point at his
opponents goal.
The new Icing" rule forbids a
team to shoot the puck up the ice
endlessly in order to delay the
game. This rule, however, is only
in effect when the two teams are
numerically the same. In such
case, if the puck is shot up the
ice to delay the game, it will be
brought back and faced off at the
point from which it was shot. II
one team is numerically smaller,
due to penalties, icing" is per-
mitted.

Miss Brown Leaves

The resignation of Miss W. Gertrude Brown, as heac
resident OF Phyllis Wheatey Settlement House. Minneapolis
came shock to many
Her thirteen years work in the Minneapolis social serv
ice field and her conclusive selling the community of the
settlement house which she presided has been an out
standing contribution to the welfare of the cys people
Her work has been hard and sefSacrcing and much
against severe handcaps Only those who have been
close condants know of the many battles she had to fight
in behalf of the cOlOred people of Minneapolis
ParadoXcal, it always is there will be much praise
for her work from did much hinder and those
who did nothing to help it.
1t is unfortunate for that population and its
economic conditions here do hold permanent opportunity
for woman Of Miss Browns capabilities There is much
work here for anyone possessed of her ability but
none here who could afford to pay for her services
This paper does not believe that her resignation at this
time the best interests of the settlement house o.
community Her leaving may possibly affect the parcpa
ton OF the cOlored people in the Sumner Field project OF
which she ardent advocate. .
We sympathze with her desire to go and conquer new
fields but this does not lessen regret going MOI
always seeing to eye with her public problems
heess we have always appreciated her sincerity of pupos
and great ability.
We sincerely regret her leaving this section.

HERE and

D ". n. Smith

If Justice Hugo Black does not
resign his seat upon the Supreme
Court bench-and there is no pres
ent indication that he has any in
tention of doing so-the President
is going to find that he has packed
the court more effectively than if
his proposal to put six men upon
the bench had succeeded.
For, in the six men he would
have named, he was reasonably
certain to have had support for
measures, it is agreed, he honestly
holds are essential for a continued
democracy working in the interest
of all the people.
The objections which defeated
his efforts were based not so much
upon the thought that decisions of
such a court would affect dis
astrously the welfare of the nation,
as upon the conviction that the
methods by which he sought to i'm
pose his will upon the people es-
tablished \ precedent dangerous in
it's implications and fraught with
the uncertainties of the interpreta-
ton some future and less scrupu-
lous president would put upon it.
Mr.. Roosevelt may be ambitious
very likely he is. He may en-
joy the great power he wields-he
would be only human if he does.
But there are few who believe
that he is ambitious to retain that
great power indefinitely or would
deliberately use it to invite the
destruction of the republic.
But with the entering in of Mr..
Hugo Black there comes the ele-
ments that pack the court with
ugly suspicions-with distrust-
with the shadows of impending
prejudices and the shameful
thought that this great court of
last resort, the final refuge of the
people may be influenced by the
principles of the Invisible En-
pire."
The white world has not con-
cerned tself with the abrogations
of the amendments written into the
constitution primarily for the
benefit of the Negro American.
1t. (the white world) has always
been able to advantage itself by
the application of these amend
ments in solving it's own special
problems. Now there comes one
so tied to the hooded order and is
anxious to serve white supremacy
that he may forget or neglect the
rights of white people under these
announcements and the white
world is uneasy and afraid.
AS for the Negro, he has so long
endured the iniquities of unfair in
terpretations and unholy decisions
of southern courts that he is more
or less content to sit back and
await the action of a white world
whose dignity and self respect is
threatened by the decisions of a Ku
Klux Judge.
Justice Black has been con-
firmed. There appears no way out
unless he can be influenced to re-
sign.
Can it be done? We doubt it.

COURTESY AND
SAFETY PROCEED
HAND IN HAND

1t is strange, but nevertheless true,
that many persons who wouldn't think
of blowing through a drawing room
with cries of "Gangway! Here l
comet" climb into their cars every
day of the week and commit, on the
streets and highways, the exact paral-
lei of that social offense.
This fact lends point to the slogan
Of SO many safety campaigns, to the
effect that courtesy and safety go
hand in hand. It's long time since
Alphonse and CASTOR disappeared
from the comic pages; but the spirit
of "You first my dear Alphonse!"
would go long way, today, to rem
edy traffic ills.
One of the most glazing instances
of discourtesy is to be seen on al
most any busy artery, during the rush
hour. Traffic on the through street
will pile up solidly, blocking intersect-
ing streets, so that it is only by match
ing rudeness with rudeness, and fore
ing their way through, that drivers
on the latter can cross busy thorough
fares.
A moments reflection would con-
vince any motorist that he would real
ly lose no time at all by leaving a
gap ahead, when approaching cross
street. AS soon as cross-traffic has
cleared, he will be on his way again,
with no net loss whatever. And the
fellow whom he let through will be
merrily on his way.
know one driver who always makes
it point, when driving in heavy traf-
fic, to pause for cross-traffic to go
through. He does it even when there
is car-length or so which would per-
NIT him to clear the intersection him
self. "The point is" he explains,
chat only about one driver in a doz-
en- will give these other fellows a
break. If l don't stop the procession
long enough to let them cross, the
line may start and stop half dozen
times before someone takes pity on
them and does it."
Cars today embody comfort ap-
preaching that of the drawing room.
There doesn't seem to be any good
reason why motorists should not take
their drawing room manners when
they climb in behind the wheel. If
enough drivers will do it, they will not
only serve the ends of safety but faci-
litate the movement of traffic as we'll.
