eNEw YORK, Sept. l1-(R-.
Signals off. menl There's nothing
wrong with the new unlimited
substitution rule in college foot
ball that precise stop-watch Of
ficiating can't fix.
That's the word today from
Walter r. Okeson. chairman of
the football rules committee,
with q supporting chorus from
Fritz Crisler Of Michigan, head
Of the football coaches associa-
ton, and Lou Little Of Columbia,
No. ! man in the coaches rules
committee.
The MISUNDERSTANDING, as
Okeson terms them, which arose
when substitutions dragged out
the Chicago and New York ALL
Star games unfortunately are due
to failure to study the rule, and
specifically one of its clauses,
with due care.
PENALTIES COME EASY
"Substitutions," says Oke ION,
may be made at any time but
they can be made without pen
atty only when time is out :.
when, for instance, the watch Is
stopped by an incomplete pass.
ball going ou' Of bounds, ETC.,
substitutions can be made with
out penalty. But if the attacking
team fails to get the ball in play
within Is seconds after the ref
cree has placed it. that team will
be penalized. If the defending
team tends to cause delay by
sending in q substitute as play
is about to be started, 1t Is PEN
allied :.
I'm short, if there are no SUBJ
stitutions, Is seconds may be
consumed in putting the ball in
play. And If there are substitu-
tons, not a second NOR is per-
mitted."

Little Dewey Nelson.
Who Stortsd Severed
Comes Lost Foil. Hurt

DAMN ARBOR, Mich, Sept. IL
-(R-Little Lavey Nelson, who
applied his 155 pounds hard
enough last season to earn a
starting nod at halfback in sew
eral games, is battling with an
injured leg for a berth on Mich
igan's 1871 football edition.
So far in practise the leg, ad-
dicted to Charley Horses" was
held up, and Wolverine coaches
hope they can count on the
plucky senior for passing and
for scampering with the ball on
spinner plays.
But Coach Fritz Crisler, who
assigned him to part-time duty
on a very tentative top-ranking
eleven, has reasons to worry
about him.
HURT DURING 1910
The fleet halfback from De-
troit, who stands S feet inches,
played part of the 1910 season
with game leg and was plagued
by the same trouble during the
baseball season. Last summer
Nelson gave the leg a rest but
the trouble reappeared when he
started running about two weeks
ago to condition for the grid
season.
With Captain Bob Westfall,
backed by Sophomore Don Boor,
at fullback and George Ceit-
haml, supported by Elmer Ma
dar, at quarter, the problem of
reshaping the Wolverine back
field narrows primarily to de-
veloping halfbacks.
A couple of Nelson's fellow
veterans, Norman Call. who was
also bothered by an injury last
season, and Harold Lockard,
seem to be at the top of the list
so far. But none of these is a
triple-duty man, and Crisler is
accustomed to the services of a
halfback who could pass, kick
and run with almost equal abil-
ity.
KUZMA TOP HALFBACK
Halfback hope No. 1 is Tom
Kuzma, star of the intrasquad
game which wound up training
last spring. He passes and punts
but is better known for his per-
formances in the broken field.
Although few have shown
triple-threat prom Use, Paul
White, Don Robinson, John AL
lerdice, Ray Sewers, Al Thomas,
Charles Kennedy and Charles
Haslam are names to keep in
mind.

no wonder Mrs. Kindhart, who has
two English nieces staying with her,
said recently: II can't bear it any
more! When the Johnsons, both stand
pat isolationists, left the other day,
l felt exactly as though my nieces

people in to lunch any more, unless we
play bridge afterwards. 1t is too I'M
certain, unless you know exactly how
everyone feels on every subject, and
are careful not to get those of opposed
feelings mixed"
This subject of protecting the feel
ings of others is far more complicated
than many realize. At a small lunch
party few days ago, one who had
returned from a sojourn in the war
zone - noting that everyone present
was an out-and-out American - gave
vivid and frightful account of the
bombing of hospital One lady pres
ent grew very white. was told after
ward that her daughter is Red Cross
volunteer serving in one of the Lon
don hospitals. So. it is not safe to take
anything for granted when conditions
are so abnormal.
Another possibility that many 9TH
erwise thoughtful people forget is the
presence of one who may be waiting
on them. On such an occasion, an in
innate friend, drinking tea alone with
her hostess, was describing the tor
lures of prisoners in concentration
camp she had seen in a movie. The
maid, who had come in to take away
the tea things, awkwardly clattered
the china and upset teacup on its
saucer. To her chagrin, the visitor
realized that the maid was French
and that the description might have
been upsetting. But the extraordinary
part of this situation was that not
even the hostess knew, until later,
that her maids brother is in concen-
tration camp. Such thoughtessness
might strain nerves too far.

rs Practice Tkot Counts

NOTHING is easier than to preach
about what we should, or should not
do. But to practice what we preach
is something else again! Yet we know,
all other considerations apart, that
unceasing discussion of the war, to
the exclusion of every other subject,
is bound to result in overwrought
emotion and possible loss of fair judg-
ment. The greater our sympa thies for
those on one side of the conflict the
more violent grow our suspicious of
the motives OF those on the other.
Therefore, unless we are prayerfully
careful, we can so bitterly resent the
attitude of those we hold to blame,
that, the first thing we know, we will
find it difficult not to attach blame to
our innocent neighbors, merely be-
cause they are bound by ties of blood
to the side to which we happen to be
opposed.
When we are in the company of
none but intimate friends, about
whose private lives we know much, it
is seldom necessary to think Carefully
about what we say. We already know
exactly what barrier there may be,
if any, between ourselves and them.
If it happens that we and they are of a
different creed or nationality, or if
we have other differences of outlook,
we instinctively respect these barriers,
