CAMP HAS NOVEL PLAN IXiOTBAIili EXPERT PROPOSES CHANGES IN RtXES. Yal Authority Wonld Compel All Players to Stand Within Limited Space. NEW HAVEN, Conn.. Jan. U Walter Camp, of Yale, issued a statement last night In which he makes suggestions for conditions in the football playing code for next year. He advocates a rather novel provision in a rule that would com pel all players' to stand in a space only ten yards wide. The changes favored by him are: Let no player on the attack or de fense line up outside two lines running parallel to the side lines, each of these lines being five yard from the ball, thus making the scrimmage line ten yards ln width. Back field men on the attack and de fense also must keep within these lines until the ball is put in play. If it is desired to Increase the power of the attack, let one man line up a spe cific distance to be determined outside this space. Mark the distance to be gained 15 yards on four downs up to the 25-yard line. Then make it ten yards in four downs up to the 16-yard line and then five yards ln four downs thereafter. Remove the five-yard restriction for a quarterback run. Forbid the - forward pass crossing the line of scrimmage, but let anyone get the ball on a forward pass after it strikes the ground. If it is desired still further to favor the attack, double distance might be given for any run that crosses the line of scrimmage more than ten yards out from center.

TALKS ON TEETH BV THE REX DETAL CO, DEJfTISTS CAVEAT EMPTOR (Let the purchaser beware.) There is no business, profession or trade where quality (Class A) counts for more and is more essential than In dentistry. One's health to a large ex tent depends upon good- teeth and good dental work. Some of the Junk that we take out of people's mouths put in by supposedly high class dentists, would shame the devil, and most of it put in by bargain counter dentists is a positive crime: it's dangerous. It is not difficult for a person to find out whether a dentist does high-class work or not. Demand references a lot of them. Then take the time to go and see enough of the people referred to to convince yourself that the references are bona fide. Most of our patients are sent by others, but if they come from an advertise ment we show samples of our work and generally can show the work in the mouth or being put in, as at all times we have patients in our offices having work done. Then we can refer you to hundreds of the best people in this city and state. All, we believe, will tell you that the work is satisfac tory In every way and is the finest possible in dentistry. It Is an easy matter for a faker In any line to claim to be a top-notcher and to fool some of the people some of the time, bui not all of. the people all the time. When a person of ordinary Intelligence is fooled by a quack dentist he -deserves no sympathy. it's his own fault. Apropos, the only dentists who have any right to take exceptions to what we say are those who do not or cannot make good; the high-class practitioner is rather the beneficiary. Any dentist is at liberty to come in and inspect our work. Our free book goes into details about the ALVEOLAR METHOD. Send for it.
