Since adopting a number of in.
novations in our national semi-pro

batter wouldn't keep his bat out of
the rays before the ball reached

make it easy also for the base

PRO GRID LOOP
| MAKES CHANGES

PHILADELPHIA, April 18.-R-
The National Football Leagues
rule committee recommended to-
day two major changes in the pro
grid code and several minor al
terations, after sitting through a
list of 40 suggestions made by the
coaches and club owners who will
open their annual meeting here to-
morrow.
The two big changes, which still
must be adopted by the league by
ia fourfifths vote, will permit
coaching from the bench and vir-
tually eliminate out-of-bounds kick
offs.
AS an experimental measure, for
the 1914 season, the committee pro-
posed to permit coaches to COM
municate with players on the field
by any means, provided that they
remain within zone measuring
ten yards in each direction from
the middle of the bench and do not
encroach upon the field.
To prevent intentional out-of-
bounds kickoffs, the committee
suggested a five yard penalty on
each kickoff until the ball is legal
ly handled by the receiving side.
This also applies to kicks that fail
to travel ten yards, unless the ball
is recovered or touched by the
receiving team.
The new rule also provides that
on kickoffs in the last two minutes
of each half, time will not be in
until the ball has been legally
handled, thus preventing the use
of out-of-bounds kickoffs to kill
time.
Less important changes from the
spectator standpoint are the renew
al for one year of the free sub
stitution rule, with the proviso
that players no longer need to re-
port on entering the game; a
change in timing of time-outs SO
that in most cases the ball in the
rules concerning the shifting Of
players between the line and back.
field and in the penalty for inter.
ference by the offensive team on
forward passes.
The three-day meeting will be
largely concerned with plans for
next fall, including the question oil
whether all eleven clubs that now
sold franchises will operate; draw
ing up the 1914 schedule and the
"draft' of college players.
Last season the Cleveland club
was given an inactive status and
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh were
permitted to merge. Some similar
mergers again may be allowed
this year, but Cleveland has signi-
fled its intention of returning to
completion and Boston, which
was granted franchise last sum-
mer, is expected to begin opera
