NEW FOOTBALL RULE NOT ADVANTAGE,SAYS COACH Huntington Foresees Slow Game Without Free Kick DANGERS ARE INCREASED Limitation of Shift Plays to Upset Western Teams In the opinion of “Shy” Huntington, head football coach, the rule passed Saturday by the intercollegiate associa tion of amateur athletics of America, abolishing the free kick for goal and substituting for it a play from the line of scrimmage, on or back of the five yard line, is not as important as many eastern critics would indicate. The abolishment of the free kick for goal will probably result, in the almost universal adoption of the place kick after a touch down, says Hunting-^ ton as he does not believe that a coach will uncork a good play to gain an extra point when the saving of that play may mean yardage for a touch down on another play. Coaches Will Be Hindered “The passing of the rule abolishing the free kick,” said Huntington, “is. not a distinct advantage. It means that it will take longer to get the ball into play again after the touchdown and that it will be harder for the coaches to develop the play. Further, if it was the purpose of the rules com mittee to eliminate the dangers of the game, then the committee has failed, for by allowing another scrimmage play it is evident that the dangers are in creased by just that much.” It will, however, in the opinion of the coach, prove more difficult to make the goal from placement than from the held ball which has been the case. With the lack of experienced kickers this will undoubtedly work a hardship on tho varsity next fill 1 as neither Hunk Latham nor Dutch Oram who will probably be called upon to do the boot ing are consistent place kickers. “Spike” Leslie who did the booting for tho Lemon Yellow last season will grad unto this spring. No Need for Change Several other changes in rules were passed by the meeting in Now York Saturday, prominent among which were the ones affecting shift, plays and clip ping from behind. Huntington does not feel that there was n need for any changes in the rules regarding shift plays and clipping and in respect to this said: “Tho plan to limit shift plays seems to emanate from a group of the coaches from the large eastern insti tutions who dominate the meeting in New York and who have succeeded np parently in legislating a number of rules. The move to limit the number of shift plays is probably a move on their part to prevent Notre Dame from using the large number of bewildering plavs which have been in such a large measure the secret of the success of the Notre Dame and certain other western teams on the gridiron.” Other Rule Discussed Another rule that was worked over was the “one man in motion” which now provides for any player leaving the scrimmage line before play begins must be at least five yards behind the line when the ball is snapped. Hunting ton does not think that the “one man in motion” rule will effect football on the Pacific Coast very much, say ing, “Stanford last season used the one man in motion by having an end run in before the ball was snapped in an ef , fort to attract the attention id' the op I posing players.” ART STUDENTS TO COMPETE Portland Extension Division Plans Jury Day for March 24 Members of the Portland division of tin' P niversit \ extension school who are taking work in sculpture and drawing under Professor Fairbanks are planning a jur\ dn\ Mart'll '! in the rooms of the \tvhiteetur:il club t*f Portland.

The concerts this year have been run in a very slim financial basis, according lo Dean Landsbury, and it will bo im possible to continue them at all unless some measure of relief is afforded. He declared that members of the faculty of I ho school of music had personally made themselves responsible for the guaran tees. lie said that Oregon was far in the rear of other colleges of equal and lesser standing in regard to music activities, anil cited examples of the methods by which such things are financed at other schools. The gleo clubs and the orches tra are among the University’s host pub licity mediums, but they are often not self-supporting, he said, pointing out that no deficits from local concerts could be tolerated. It is expected that tlie matter will be carried over until next term and may be presented to the students for their ap proval at the same time as the regular student body election in the early part of May.
