New Substitution Rule Explained Other Changes (Note: This Is tho third of a scries of four explanatory stories on the football rule changes, written espe cially for Tho Associated Press). Ily William R. I.angfnrtl (Secretary, National Football Rules Committee) ' ' NEW YORK. Oct. 7 Ml Tho more liberal substitution rule which Is In this year's football rules allows n player to be substituted for another at any time but a player withdrawn from tho game may not return tn the same quarter In whloli he was with drawn. 1 A player withdrawn during an In termission betweon quarters Is not allowed to return until after the start of the subsequent quarter as players are not permitted to leavo the field during these one-minute intermissions. As heretofore each teem may re quest that play be suspended lor a period of not more than two minutes three times during each half, without penalty. Thereafter, unless tho pur pose for calling time is to remove an Injured player whom time Is called, a penalty of flvo yards Is exacted. This change was made so that there Would be posslblo excuse for failuro to tako out of tho game promptly any tired, or Injured player. Another oharwo In this rule re quires that substitutions (unless nuuio for tho purpose of replacing an obviously Injured player) are to be allowed only when time Is already out for Borne other purpose, such as when tho ball goes out of bounds, after an incompleted forward pass, .a fair catch, or a score, etc.. etc. If a substitute, unlcsa to replace an Injured player, goes on tho field and by this act necossltatca tho stop ping of tho watch, his team will bo penalized five yards for delay of the game. This should curb tho indis criminate and disconcerting sendlng lu of substitutes at any or all times tn tho past. Card President Is Interested In Night Baseball 6V. LOUIS PI The first trial of floodlights at Sportsman's Park be fore a crowd of 10,000 lias left Presi dent Sam Breado'n of the Cardinals "Interested" In the possibilities of introducing night baseball Into the major leagues. Several defects In tho portable lighting equipment of the House of David ball club manifested them selves during the game, but Breadon pointed ont that theso have beon overcome In jiermanent Installa tions. "At Columbus, whore wo have the latest thing In floodlights." he said, "there is not a shadow or a dark spot. In some respects tho visibility la greater than by daylight. "The ball Is highly Illuminated by the lights, and really Is more easily followed." Ilreadon added that fans at Co lumbus and at Hoitaton, Tex., where tho Cardinals also have a farm, haw shown their approval of night baseball by their attendance. "At one game lu Columbus this year." he continued, "wo had 19.000 attendance. There were 10.000 here tor tho night exhibition, yet only I about 400 the same after noon for a i regular championship game." i Ilreadon conceded that many per- , sons might have been attracted by I tho novelty of the first night game in tho park, others by the pictur esque opponents of the Cardinals, and still others by G rover Cleveland Alexander, former Cardinal hurler now manager of the boarded team. Yet. the Hcdblrd magnate Is con vinced "a far greater number of persona are able and eager to at tend ball games at night than Is tho case in daytime." "The introduction of an occasional night game into the league scheduler he thinks, "might not prove a- bad tdco." Portland Driver i Injured Fatally BSAmS. Wash.. CVt. 7 -.at Krwfh IMU'ln Snyder.

Could (Associated Press Sports Edidtor Old Man Stagg londs his Chicago Maroons back east early this October for a visit to his alma mater, Yale, in return for the U7-0 trouncing that little Albic Booth helped administer ' to them last season at the Midway. ! Tho dean of American football coaches, or at least the co-dean if ; ho may be obliirvd to share the dls- I tinctlon with Pop Warner, has been a long time moving his boys back among the lop-fllpht teams on the 1 bosis of performances. ! They may hove bean getting a ' lot out of the game, benefiting , themselves for the future and all that sort of thing, but they -have : not been scoring many touchdowns since John Thomas and "Five Yards' McCarty left Chicago, , i There were sufficient signs of an upward trend for the Maroon lost ; fall, howover. to JuMIfy the hope of making a much batter showing I against the Ells this year. Chicago , whs strong enough at the cloae of tho 1931 campaign to beat Illinois and lose a couple of tough-luck decisions , to the powerful Purdue and Wiscon- sin outfits. ' The Old Man can "take It," so far j as Yale Is concerned. If necessary, but j ho would like nothing better than j to direct a winning team In the big I bowl at New Haven.

He does the j passing as well as rmost of the j boil-lugging. - Last fall he . gained more ground than aiy other Big j Six back In conference games. . He ; should bo aided this season by the ; blocking' of Ivan Impson, former! fullback who was out with a broken j leg last year, and Ed Scliaforth, ' 185-pound halfback, according to the eorly season reports from Ames. ! Iowa State takes on Nebraska and I Kansas for its first two conference games, October 8 and 15, by way of losing no time getting into the thick of the conference scramble. i:i'KKS.SIOX BIUGllT NOTE Bob Zuppke, beginning his 20th season as coach of the Illlnl, with a long ' record of championships won, is satisfied that tho 1032 boys are eager to do their part toward re storing the erstwhile gridiron glories. "This squad looks more like an old time Illinois bunch," says Zupp ke. "They are leaner-looking, not so pudgy." Maybe the boys haven't been eat ing as regularly as they were. Here's an Interesting tale of a pitcher who lost his appendix, and tn losing the vermiform adjunct, re gained his pitching form. The hurler is George Pi pgr as, big righthander of the Yankees, veteran of the triumphant campaigns of earlier Yanks, and the num Herb Pennrxk once referred to as the "Great American Peasant." Two years ago he was headed for the baseball boneyard. When Bob Shawkev took over the management of the Yankees after i tho death of Miller Hugglns. Plp gras labored with might and main to hold his place in the starting lineup. He trlod so hard that some time he was grunting with very pitch. He'd throw himself off bal ance, stumble. But the harder he tried, the less effective he became. Ho was making such an effort that he was tying up his muscles. One set of muscles pulled against Knottier. There was no coordination. His fast ball looked like Herb Pen nock's slow ball. His curve was Just a wrinkle. Pipgros was about to be traded off when he was stricken with np pendicltis. That looked like the end. KM Fti Cl'T TLXSIOX Instead it was the proverbial blessing in disguise. When he came back to the Yankees he was under strict orders to exert himself as little as possible. When he started to pitch he tossed the ball easily, taking no chance of strain. To Ptpgra&'s astonishment he sud denly found that the easy, carefree mnllAX Karl Krnlinlir Ka.'lr ' Kle fn ordination. His fast ball was as fast! as ever, his curve just as sharp. Now he's up near the head of the Yankee class again. lie's probably the only pitcher In world's series history whose pitch ing arm was saved by an appendi citis operation.
