(Copyright. 1921, by The ureKoniu.) Changes in the football rules for the season of 1921 have been made for the purpose of clarification, rather than alteration, in play. Many of the difficulties noted are merely those of phrasing, while some have been made for easier analysis of play by the spectators. The alterations' which bear direct ly upon play begin with rule four. Here It is made clear that when time Is called for the end of the game or the end of a period and a fair catch has been made Just prior to the call of time the team making the fair shall have the privilege of the kick, but may not put the ball in scrim mage. Word "Illegal" Added. In rule six, the word "illegal" has been added so that the rule applies not only to an incompleted forward pass, but also to an illegal one. Rule seven has been altered so that it now accords with custom. The rule formerly provided that the cap tains should toss for choice of goal. No one can remember when the cap tains did this. The referee has tossed the coin for years, while one of the two captains called his choice and that procedure now is provided for in the rules. Rule seven, in addition, now provides that after the winner has made his choice, he may not thereafter change his decision, which must stand. Rules nine, 17 and 23 have under gone some slight changes In word ing merely In order to make their meaning clearer. These changes are not likely to alter the play. Rule 23, dealing with unnecessary roughness, has been made to cover the various cases arising under Its jurisdiction,. One of its sections has been sub divided, so that tripping, tackling out of bounds, throwing the player with the ball to the ground after the ball has been declared dead, or any other unnecessary roughness are grouped under one head, unnecessarily run ning Into or throwing one'self against a player obviously out of the play either before or after the ball has been declared dead and unnecessarily roughing a man who has made a for ward pass are grouped under an other head. The penalty for offenses under the first head Is loss of 15 yards from the spot where the foul was committed. For the second list of offenses the penalty is loss of 15 yards from the spot where the ball was put in play. IV'evr Section Added. A new section has been added to rule 14, which will be gratefully ap preciated by the spectators, as well as by the unfortunate team forced to make a safety touchdown. This new ruling provides that the side making a safety may bring the ball out to their own 30-yard line, while a side making a touch-back may bring the ball out only to their own 20-yard line as before. The principal reason for this altera tion was to enable the spectators to know at once when the ball was touched down In goal by the side de fending that goal, whether It was a safety and so scored two points for the opponents attacking that goal, or whether It was only a touchback, which scored nothing. It seemed fair also that a side so hard pressed aa to be forced to make a safety should be entitled to a somewhat greater distance in which to protect their goal line than that given the team which merely had made a touch-back. Quite a number of so-called "ap proved rulings" are appended to the rules by the rules committee. These will be explained and dealt with later by the writer. BT L. H. GREGORY. ALMOST before we know it the football season will be here. From this writing to September 15, opening day of varsity football h ' practice under Pacific coast comer- j ence rules, is less than a month. The colleges already have forgotten base hall. They are thinking only of foot ball. It looks like a big season. Every body; of course, will be out to beat California. With that great eleven minus only two of its stars, Majors and Pesky Sprott. the chances for do ing it are not particularly bright. But that will not keep the boys from trying. Oregon gets the ' first conference whack at California. Their game will be played at Berkeley October 22. California will be a known Quantity. Oregon a guess. California will have a team of veterans, with a full eleven of substitutes all nearly aa good as the men they are trained to replace; Oregon will be minus Bill Steers, her only feature player last season, with out whom her team was nothing the holes from graduation will be filled with last season's freshmen. They may be stars or dubs. No one knows, not even themselves or their coach, for they never have been tried. California on top of this will have the advantage of good training weather and a dry, fast field. Both mean a lot, especially at that early stage of the season. It looks now like a victory for California.- may very easily, give Seattle a pen nant. Moreover, the Suds finish on their home lot, while San Francisco ends the season on the road. The Seals a final chance to retrieve If they fall down In the interim, be cause they play Portland here in the next to last week. But the antidote to that is the last week of the sea son, in which they play Seattle at home. If both clubs are contenders then, how the fur will fly! Seattle's chances look a heap bet ter since Herb (christened Lynn) Brenton has kissed and made up with President Klepper of the Suds. Klepper suspended Brenton when the latter beefed about his salary, and slapped on a J300 fine besides. But all that Is forgotten, the fine no doubt remitted, and Brenton is with the club again to bolster up the fal tering pitching staff. He won his game Friday, 3 to 1, and may be fig Entries for Links Tourney Are Numerous.

BOB Corner Second and Morrison Streets B B B a B B B B B B I'aul Schneider-man of Portland Arranges Speed Contests for Labor Day Feature. UUUIUU TACOMA, Wash.. Aug. 20. (Spe cial.) Paul Schnelderman of Port land arrived here yesterday morning to start work on his plans for staging a two-day motorcycle race meet at, the local speedway September 4 and 5. Schnelderman managed two success tul motorcycle race meets in Port land this summer, and says he will have riders here for the coming meet who will be able to give the speed fans more thrills than they ever have experienced at the local auto races. This will be the first opportunity local fans have had of witnessing motorcycle races, and it will be the first time that the two-wheelers ever have competed on a board track in the northwest. Official sanction has been granted by the Motorcycle and Allied Trades association, which is the governing body of all motorcycle race meets, for holding the coming races. , The best time ever made by the auto racers on the local two-mile track was 9s miles an hour and Schnelderman says the motorbikes will be able to do better than 100 miles an hour in the coming meet. One motorcycle racer already has been "clocked at 107 miles an hour. Eight-valve motors will the coming meet instead of the pocket-valve type which has been used In the dirt track races through out the northwest. The eight-valve machines are capable of doing six seconds better to the mile than the pocket-valve racer. Some of the most famoua figures In America's motorcycle racing game will be bere to compete. The list of possible entries Includes Otto Walker, Wells Bennett, Ralph Hepburn, Bob Newman, Butch Woolsifer. J. L. Vail, Red Cogburn, Ray Washier, Fred rick! and Seymore. The next conference eleven that will try to tak a fall out of the Bears is Washiigton .State. If any conference teaiA can do it, that team appears to be the one from Washing ton State. Pre-season dope is often misleading. Nevertheless, Washing ton State, view from any angle, looks formidable indeed. She has her same wily coach, Guf Welch, the Carlisle Indian, and most of the veteran lin'eup that so spec tacularly won In the last quarter from the University of Nebraska, 21 to 20. To he sure, her great fullback, Glllls. is missing, and Gillis was an entire eleven In himself. Yet she has well tried material coming up, and above all, a team in harmony with itself and with its coach. Everybody now knows that lack .of harmony caused the 49-to-0 disaster vhen Washington State played Call tornia last October. Andy Smith knows it. The California team knows it. And Washington State knows It and will strive the more desperately to wipe out that disgrace. After Gus Welch took his squad home from Berkeley and with a firmness that did him credit weeded out the dis senters and threw them out of the lineup, Washington State became a different team entirely. What it did against Oregon Agricultural college and against Nebraska showed that. Now it will train for one thing to prove itself against California. Portland Is in great luck on this game, for it will be played here, on Multnomah field, October 29. From all present Indications it will be the season's fiercest struggle. People' will come here from California, Washing ton and Oregon to see it. Multnomah held will be crowded and lammed w'th a great partisan throng. Portand also will have another varsity, football game, that between the University of Oregon and the University of Idaho. It will be played bere two weeks earlier than the California-Washington State struggle, the date tot it being October 15. This is the first conference game scheduled in the Pacific northwest. Oregon has downed Idaho 13 times In succession, but last year her victory was aided by lucky breaks. Idaho will be play ing to break the ancient jinx and get away to a new start. Oregon will be playing to prove to herself that she has the material and the team. It will be 7ortb. seeing. This is as good a time as any to publish the 1921 football schedules of the Pacific coast conference varsity teams. Here Is the list, including also some of the early-season prac tice games whloh have no bearing on the conference race: September 24 California vs. St. Mary's col lego, at Berkeley.

(Pa) Rourke. for 23 years owner of the Omaha club in the Western league and one of the prom inent figures in minor-league base ball, went on to San Francisco early In the week, after a stay here of sev eral weeks. Some have construed this to mean that Rourke is no longer even a possibility as a prospective purchaser of the Portland club. Perhaps this is so and perhaps It isn't. Rourke didn't talk much to Judge McCredie about buying the club; in fact, it was mentioned be tween them only once, and that cas ually, but this is hardly the buying season. Clubs usually are eold in the winter, when the Hot Stove league is In session. What Mr. Rourke was do ing here for the most part was to look over the field, get a line on the senti ments of the fans, squint over the club to note its possibilities and impossi bilities, and determine what Portland would be as a baseball town if it had a winning team. Now he Is in San Francisco, where Cal Ewlng, owner of the Oakland club, is an old friend. Cal and Charley Graham can give him the low down on a lot of things it would be convenient for a prospective purchaser of the Portland club to know. Something may be cooked up yet. Certainly the other club owners in the league are. just as eager for new ownership of the Portland club as are the people of Portland. They might have inducements to offer. If Rourke should buy the Portland club then it's dollars to coffee cake that Marty Krug would become mana ger. Marty managed the Omaha team under Rourke's ownership for three seasons, and In one of them, 1916, brought the town the first pennant it had had in several years. m . The Western Canada league, which broke up partially when Regina and Moose Jaw threw up the sponge re cently, is in danger of going all to pieces in a controversy over a young pitcher who tried out with the Bea vers at spring training camp. This pitcher is Ed Zlnk, ex-Unlverslty of Nebraska southpaw. Zfnk went to Billy Speas' club at Regina and pitched very good ball until, with many other players at Regina and Moose Jaw, he found himself out of a Job. Saskatoon signed him for the remainder of the season. Winnipeg, the only large city in the league, at once raised a great protest over both Zink and Oscar Harstad, once a Portland pitcher. Under the pretext that permitting other teams to load up with players from the defunct clubs is against the interest of good sport, the Winnipeg owners have threatened to withdraw from the league unless both are released. Sas katoon Is standing pat and it now be comes a showdown. SINGLE G. IS VICTOR THREE FASTEST TIEATS OF YEAR AT PHILADELPHIA. Free-for-AU Feature of Final Day of Grand Circuit Programme Is Captured. Prominent golfers from every section of the northwest will be present to compete for the handsome prizes ot tered for the winners. With the amateur championship scheduled for St. Louis next month many of the leading golf figures In the northwest will come to Gearhart preliminary to making the eastern trip. Many have expressed their in tent to be present for the keen com petition expected, in the coming tour ney. Several Washington cities will send their best players and every club in Oregon will be represented. Ercel Kay, who defeated Russell Smith in. the final round last year, is expected to be present to defend his honors Douglas Nlcol, the youngster from the Portland Golf club. Is on hand to give the older players some trouble. Duvarde, the Belgian player now In the Canadian Rockies, Is expected to arrive on the links in time for the play. He has been playing all summer on various courses In Canada and golf enthusiasts are hoping that he will stop over here. Noted Golfers Invited. Many of the golfers who stood, in the limelight in the northwest cham pionship play at Portland are ex pected to enter the competition here. Invitations have been forwarded to George von Elm, H. Chandler Egan, Russell Smith. Rudolph Wllhelm, Clark Spiers, Bob Stein, Dr. Willing. Clare Grlswold and other golfers who are expected to compete in the ama teur championships. In many respects the Gearhart course resembles that of the Sunset Hills at St. Louis, where the national event will be staged. This particular course has tended to attract many of the countrys' best golfers to Gearhart. The women's championships are proving to be a drawing card. A large number of entries have been received for the women's round and with many of the feminine golfers under a hundred the competition should be the best in the history of this feature. Owen A. Merrick, who is in charge of the tournament his year, reports that the course is in excellent shape. It has proven very popular among the numbers of vacationists who are re siding here. A new green has been placed at the No. 2 hole. This will be used for the first time at the tour nament. Lowest 10 to Qualify. The play will begin at 9 o'clock on Wednesday with medal play on the first 18 holes. The lowest 16 scores will qualify for the championship round. The women's championship will begin at 2:15 in the afternoon, following the second 18 holes of the men's qualifying round. The wom en's round will be played over 18 holes with the lowest eight qualifying for the championship flight. There w'll be two elimination rounds of 18 holes each for the men's championship round on Thursday, with one each for the women's cham pionship, women's flights, and men's flights. The men's championship semi-finals of 36 holes will be staged on Friday with the finals on Satur day. A mixed foursome handicap will be held on Saturday. ABERDEEN INCREASES DEAD Seattle still has a chance at the Pacific Coast league pennant. As this was written the Suds had broken even with Sacramento in their first four games, while San Francisco and Vernon were fighting it out, game 1 for game. This left Seattle seven full games behind the Seals, with six weeks in which to make up the gap. From Sacramento the Suds go to Los Angeles and tackle Vernon, which Is a tough team to tackle right now. After that series they take on the Seals on the San Fran cisco lot. Exceot for one thine- it be used In ' would be then or never for Seattle. But that one thing Is a mouthful perhaps a big enough, succulent enough mouthful to decid the whole argument. For two weeks in a row the Suds play the Portland Beavers on week here in Portland, the sec ond week In Seattle. Suppose they take 11 of the 14 games what then? Why, anything and everything! per haps, for during those two weeks the Seals will be playing, first Los An geles, which has talcen two series this year from them; next Oakland, which always Is a hard club for San Francisco to beat. Those two weeks I PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 20 Single G paced the three fastest heats of the year and won the free-for-all feature of the final Cay of the Grand Circuit meeting over the Belmont mile track this afternoon. Single G, owned by W. B. Barefoot of Cambridge City, Ind., took the event in straight heats In 2:00-. 2:01 and 2:0H4. thereby set ting a new pacing record for the track.

"Babe" Ruth uses a bat that varies from 52 to 54 ounces. Fifty-four ounces is his top limit.
