Aerial Rule Change
Expected TO Help
Shovel Passing
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
KANSAS CITY, Sept. THE men
in striped shirts who oflciate Big
Six and Missouri Valley Conference
football games spent today discuss
ing 40-odd rule changes.
Two Of the rules changes took
most of the arbiters' time. This
year a forward pass that strikes an
ineligible player behind the line Of
scrinmage will be an incompleted
pass, in contrast to last years ruling
which would have brought the Of
Tending team a l5-yard penalty.
The 1910 rule version is expected
to be boon to those coaches whose
offense includes shovel passes. How
ever, if, in the judgment of the off,
cials, the passer deliberately hits an
ineligible player to avoid being
thrown for a loss, the same penalty
will be assessed this season.
The other major 1910 change re-
moves the penalty if a player acci-
dentally kicks free ball while trying
to recover it.

Carfermoor Scores
As FarndaIe Falls
In Foxcatcher
Topping at Final Jump.
Horse Thot Set Record
In 1889 Is Destroyed
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
FAIR HILL, Md, Sept. 7.-Mis-
fortune and tragedy stalked Emile
Pdzer, veteran horseman, IN his bid
today for a second straight victory
in the $1,000 Foxcatcher National
Cup Steeplechase.
Pliers Farndale, 1889 winner and
favorite in today's event, fell at the
final jump while fighting to take
the lead from Holmdel Stables
Cartermoor. A few minutes later,
while a crowd of IL, 1000 looked on,
Farndale was destroyed.
Cartermoor, clearing the barrier
safely, went on to win the gruelling
test and take down purse of So
019.80 for his owner, Bernard PREM
tice of Bedminster, N. ]. Parma was
second and Bois Chabot third.
Farndale Makes Great Bid.
Farndale's destruction climaxed a
gallant bid after he had trailed the
field for most of the 3-mile test, re-
garded as one of the most difficult in
the world
Cartermoor, a 6-to-1 entry in the
betting list, pulled a surprise by
jumping into the lead almost at
the outset. His closest opposition
was Wambaw, but the latter fell
at one of the early jumps, and then
Bagpipe, Farragut and Top Wave
moved up to challenging positions,
with Farndale fifth.
Farragut was put out Of conten-
ton when he lost his rider on the
far stretch. AS they entered the
final straightaway of the long grind,
Farndale and Cartermoor began to
move away.
Cartermoor Near Record.
They reached the final piece of
brush almost together. Cartermoor
cleared it safely.
AS Farndale faltered, Jockey Sid
ney Waters made desperate effort
to hang on, but slipped and fell un-
der his mount. He was bruised and
shaken up, but not injured Sc
riously.

COLONIAL BEACH, Va, Sept
7.-St. Johns football team, here
for q weeks intensive prepping, gives
promise Of being one of the most
improved high school elevens in
Washington or vicinity.
Even though the Johnnies won
only four of last years seven games,
consensus Of coaches who are
training their schoolboys in Wash
ington rates them as the team most
feared. That in spite of the fact
that Coach Gene Augusterfer has
lost a goodly portion of last years
team and must knit an outfit of
sophomores and juniors with few
experienced seniors to hold 1t to-
gether.
There is considerable basis for
the fears Of st. Johns rivals, but
rumors that the Cadets had four or
five boys from other schools in its
squad and that the entire squad was
made up of big, powerful boys, have
been refuted.
DCHiCS SSiuk 1EdHShCIS.
Coach Augusterfer denied today
that any of his boys played for
other schools last season. One we'll
known public high player who this
year is over the age limit wanted
to come to st. Johns but was told
by Augusterfer that if he did he
would not be permitted to play
on the football team. The coach
declared that not one of the ST.
Johns players is over the 18-year-
old limit in force in Washington
public schools.
AS for the squad Of big, powerful
boys, that is true to some extent.
Training here are SO lads, most Of
them in excellent physical condition.
They are high-spirited and working
hard. Most of the positions on the
team are open.
Two sessions are held daily with
heavy scrimmage in the afternoon
Spring practice gave the boys a
knowledge of a number Of plays
and Coach Augusterfer fast is iron
ing out rough spots and teaching
the finer points of the game. st
Johns gained a big advantage over
most Washington schools in bring
ing its squad here. Augusterfer es-
Inmates he can get in close to three
weeks work in one. There are NO
distractions, most of the vacationers
having returned home, and the
squad is under the constant super
vision of the coach and his assist
ants. This, coupled with the fact
that the Johnnies had good spring
practice, something not permitted in
public schools, puts the team far
ahead of its Washington rivals al
this stage.
All Is not perfect with the Cadets
In fact it's quite blow that Frank
Cady, one of the best schoolboy
backs in Washington last year, un-
expectedly is not returning.
Among the other regulars OF last
years team not with the squad are
Joe DAILY, back; Fred Sansaloni and
Bill Shields, guards: Fibber MacKee
center; Herb Munhall, tackle. and
Ed Fogarty, end. The only letter
men returning are Tom Chisari
back; Charles Recart, tackle, and
Dick Hathaway, end.
Most every other schoolboy coach
in Washington will own that num-
ber of returning letter men, but
Augusterfer will have enough other
experienced lads for a good team
Prospects definitely are for a better
team than last years and Auguster-
fer predicts a scrappy outfit that
will not be beaten badly.

to the contrary have no foundation

Leoffler explained that the "big

players, eligible for service in the
Canadian army, have been enabled
to complete their military training
in advance of the opening of the
hockey season in the United States.
This was worked out by the big
leagues" said Leof11er," and we get
the advantage of it."
Redvers Mackenzie, coach Of the
l939-1940 Washington Eagles, again
will be in charge Of the local team,
Leoff1er said. ALAN Kuntz, Foster
and Johnny McTeer, three of our
best team members last year, have
had their military training and are
ready for hockey" said Leofder.
"All the other members Of our team
of last year will be out Of army serv-
ice by October"

others slated to go to- Baltimore.

The season of the hockey Eagles
will run from November 26 through

pearance of the ice artists is sched-
uled for November 11-23, inclusive.
