CHANGES RADICAL. sporting co::::ent and kindred subjects l.a Grande Footlmll Cans will Have to Apply Themselves Diligent I v. - New football rules arc so radically different from the old sort that La Grande fans will have to learn the game over again to understanding appreciate the progress of the game. The players, of course, have a serious problem in front of them In becoming accustomed to the new requirements. As no rule books are available at this time, it Is doubtful is the game will be thoroughly understood until later in the year. One of the problems that will foster disputes is the forward pass, whlcn has been so arranged that the exact meaning of the clause is hard to understand. .One self-evident fact is that the forward pass must not be over twenty yards toward the op ponent's goal, and also that no on must interfere with the receiver of a forward pass while In the tweny-yarr I zone. The position of quarterbac k will virtually disappear and the cer.t?r will not be the only one to Bnap the ball. Snapping also may be doni by either guards or tackles besides e.n ter( and can be received and carried by anyone back of the line when fhs ball is put In motion.
