Th following coraplet th discus
sion of th football rules by William T.
Retd' Jr, th first part of which was
published In yst.day's Journal: -t
If th W-yard rule wer my only baaa
' mf iriummt on : this question of tha
neastbilltv of man play, ' I ahould' eon
alder any cae a strong on, but for
. -tunately .1 have one or two other -meaa-
-urea to consider , which tt seems to ma
will mak my . position almost, unds-
batable, - .... -' ...
'' Tha flrat of the la Ilka tha 19-yard
.' rata m on respect; It Is another of the
. Indirect type of new legislation. It, too.
seeka to gain open play by eliminating
' masa play. . I refer to mo rule wnicn
practically forbids th guards and
tackle of tha rush line from being
brought behind th line." This rule. It
la perfeoUy obvious, will deal a herd
Mow to maaa play, for ' It practically
forbids th very men who have made It
successful from participating in It fur
ther. It" goe further than simply de
priving a team of thla rushing ability,
because, whereas under tha old plan It
waa possible to divide tha Strain of tha
rushing game between fir or mora men.
It now become necessary for three men
to bear It all. Thla la a serious matter.
when It la remembered that these same
three mea will hay all of th open
work to do, too. I say that three men
will, now do this work that la tha
way In which the new plan works the
oretically, but, practically It throws th
bucking largely on tha fullback. Obvi
ously, then, unless the fullback be super-
- human., ha oannot be xptod to stand
the brunt of heading a mass attack on
vary play and yet last tha gam. : If he
cannot last, there must b a, substitute
' who If equally good to fill his place, or
' else th teem that dependa on mass play
will be (trended when th first player
- leaves the game. Inasmuch a It la hard
ly, likely that all three backs of a given
. team will be picked for their bucking
ability,.- even If .the' material allows of
. ouch choice, It will be aeen what a
really serious handicap thla la. -
Tha Kaaa nay, '
In spite of thla there are those who
predict that maaa play la still possible
under this rule, through the use of the
lineman, who may be brought back so
long as he la at leaat five, yard beck,
or through th us of th rule permitting
the two ends to be brought back.
It 1 my opinion that neither of thee
view la sound. In the first place, I be
lieve that the five-yard requirement will
prevent heavy men from being brought
back for maaa plays, atnoa a heavy man,
( especially If alow, starting, from ruch a
i distance behind th line, cannot get to
. ' the line quickly enough to be effective:
and. again, because that a' heavy man
cannot be profitably used aa a pusher In
a mass play directed at the line aa he
has bean used, because It Is a well
known principle that It la not safe to
have a heavy man push a man. much
liahter than he Into amah line, as la th.
cas where linemen and halfbacka are
concerned. It has been demonstrated
time and again that where a tackle un
dertakee to push a halfback through
th line th halfback - la more llkelv
. to get hurt, while in th reserve case the
. lecme generally escapes uninjured and
lasts longer. . To my mind.' then, the
lineman -who- t at present atlowcdb
. hind the tin cannot be as effectively
uaed In th play as ha has been hereto-
'"re. h has baaa deprived of nearness
to tha Una. wher his slowness waa not
eucn a handicap, and h has been plaoed
In a position relative to tha other play
era where It la hardly likely to be good
policy to use hire as ar pusher, and
her. If he la in company with fast
backs, he can hardly expect to head
ioe inierrerenc.
ew Sana Will Work.
. Turning now to th queatlon of th
ends and their connection ; with mass
play. I do not believe that nds will be
usea rnucn in mass play. If at all. be.
raus ta - th first place, unlesi
: .mone takes their place, they
win . ntn io atana outside, the out
. siae toot or th player on the end
. of th Una this nlaver. umel.
Ing to th new rush-lin rule, will bar
' to b on th line In a bona fid man
ner (and therefor unable to stand at
right angle to th rush line, where by
pincning nimseir a little ha can all
th end to stand outside of hi outside
foot and yet b pretty close to th cen
ter of the play) th end will be kept
pretty well out where hla opportunity
for direct participation In maaa play
will bo greatly hampered. .
: tin th second plao. and this seems
to me to be th more important of th
two. I believe that with the on-elde kick
. and th forward pass, th nda ore
: likely to have vrf more running and
open field work than they have eua
... tomartly had, with tha result that th
. ooaene. will hardly feel willing to work
them atlll harder.. Greater activity will
be at a premium on both, ends, and as
thla activity la rare In combination with
.other neceaaarry quaities. It la fair to
assume that a good pair of nds will be
saved aa much aa possible.
Turning now to the minor leglsla
. thm affecting mass play, w hav to
consider tne restriction -on hurdling,
' tackling and tha Interlocking of legs,
': '. . - Bol oa' Caroline. . V
The rule on hurdling forblda a player
- from jumping over the line feet first.
Thla It will b aeen will greatly han
dicap this style of attack since, unlexe
. a man la able to Jump feet first. It I
; : hard fro hlra to regain hla footing after
he baa Jumped, and conaequently harder
-- for hlra to make -the additional gatna
which hav usually followed. Incident
ally, thla same ml will greatly asaist
the rush-line backs In their defenslv
'.work, alnc under th new conditions
; they will be safe In rushing directly at

they had ,to do last year to avoid being

Th rule on tackling' provide that a
runner ahall be considered down "when
any portion of his person, except , his
hands or feet, touche tha ground while

wll known, haa been aapeclally charac
teristic of mass play.
Tha rule preventing the Interlocking
of lega, except on th part of tha center
and hla two guards, will have a tsnoency
to mak - It . harder for the offense to
protect the " play in 'It -tnttlel-atag.
By Interlocking lega It haa been pos
sible for- a weak man in the line to re
calve much assistance from th man
next to him, thereby rendering th line
aa a whole atronger by the combina
tion. Hereafter each man will have to
atand more on hla, own merits.
Inmnlnf un now the total legislation
aimed at the reduction of maaa play." It
aeema reasonably certain that we anau
hav much less of It Undoubtedly It
will be used In tha attempt at making
a yard or so on tha third down In order
to retain poaaeasion or tne oaii, nut win
probably not b adopted aa th backbone
of offense.
. , Vew XVegtalatloa. .. '
Patstn on now to tha leglaUtlon
dealing directly with th opening up Of
th play, we hav to deal with, several
prlnclplea wholly new to tha game, th
more Important or wnicn are tne ior
ward mil tha on-atd kick and the
partial readoptlon of high tackling. Of
thee th first two are much alike la
their general effect. In that they both
seek to weaken th defena by forcing
tha defensive backs to - spread them-
selves more freely Over th back field
territory (thua preventing them from
concentrating ao effectively), and at th
ssme time providing a means for tak-
tng advantage- tit thla wetknsgrAF
other point or eimiianiy is a ro m
fact that In both Instances tha defen
sive team la called upon -to protect not
only that fart of their territory which
la ahead of them, but also that which la
behind, forcing them thereby to divide
tbelr attention Instead of allowing them
aa heretofore to .concentrate wholly on
th territory ahead. Again, they are
similar in that they both Introduc rnto
th game a principle which with on ex
ception, that of allowing- Interference
ahead of th mnner. haa not been con
sidered wise policy heretofore th prin
ciple of v off-aide play. This principle,
although It Is not a part of th English
rame, will nevertheless tend to Intro
duc Into th Amerlcen gam a feature
very common to tha Engltah gam th
us of playe which depend for their suc
cess not so much upon precision aa upon
chance. For example, every player on
an American team knowa befor a given
play starts Just what hla particular
function in that play la to be wher
hla responsibility begins and wher It
enda Ha knowa that If the ball la-to
b passed to him h will recelv It ati
on particular , piac or moment ii
practically never varlea, while, on tha
other hand. It la generally tru of th
English player that while he knowa
perhaps that tha ball 1 to ba passed to
hlra at aome atage or tne piay, n nu
not tha slightest Idea of tha exact mo
meat or the preclaa apot at-Whlch this
paaa will take place. Th only differ
ence that I can see in in miiuenc ox
these two changes will be a question of
degre. ' ' '.
" Tha rorwara raaa.
Tha forward paaa. It aeema to in, will
not begin to be aa effective aa th on-
aid- kick for", many "Teaaona, In "the
first" place, aa I hav explained before,
football haa always developed . toward
th conservative football play era hava
avoided taking risks In their play when
It waa poestble to adopt playa which did
not involve risk. Tha forward paaa will
Involve great risks and If will be used
freely only after football men hav com
to .the conoluaion -tnat : umeaa-inese
risks are undertaken there will b little
chance of advancing th ball. Tha for
ward paaa rule provides that If tha ball
crosses the Una of acrlmmag. it must
do ao at a point at leaat flv yards from
th center In other words, Juat outside
of tackle. Presuming that a back stand
ing In hia position attempta to make
auch a paaa. it ia clear that th ball wit
travel on th hypotheaus of a right
triangle in order to travel th distance
of Ita shortest leg represented In thts
case by tha distance from tha lln at
which a player atanda A very long
paaa for a vary short gain. Again thla
paaa will be mad toward, th open
field wher a failure In accuracy Is
rikeryt6ndnntB recovry bf th ball
by an opponent and perhaps a long run.
Bins feruif th T. "
Furthermore, th 'player who aeeks te
recover th pass, which must be recov
ered In th air, will hav to do so while
running In approximately the same dl
reotion aa that in which tha ball ia trav
ellng. virtually with hi back to It a
very hard peattlon in wnicn to attempt
to catch th ball, while tha opponent
on th defense, facing th play, la In a
moat advantageous position to recover
th ball or to tackle th player. . Again,
If th ball' touchea tha ground before
being touched by a player of either aide
It belongs to tha aide which did net paaa
It at th apot at which th pass waa
attempted.' Once "more, only a limited
number of players of th aid wnlch
makea th paaa may recelv It. making
It hard to aurrouwd tha ball with enough
men to rednc th chanc of a allp up
of some kind. Then, toe, tt ia going to
be a very difficult thing to teach men
to handle tha ball with aafety and pre
cision, at any rate during the flrat year;
and finally,, it will bs ao difficult to
count with any srtalnty-tipon the poswl
blllty of making" a paaa, owing to t&e
possible Interruption by th opponents
at on or both ends of it that th result
will be almost a gambls. .
On thee grounds, then, and on many
others which I have not tlm to atate.
It seems to me that wa ahall see only
an occasional long pass, with perhaps
many short ones. . .' . '..
- Th Oa-gld Xlok. !
.Tha o'n-sld klckvon the other hand,
does not present any serious risks.- It
will be possible . for anybody on th
offensive side to recover th ball at any
time, so long aa It first touchea the'
ground. Tha kicks may be long or short.
high or low, and they may croaa th
scrimmage lln at any point Tha only
advantage the forward paaa haa over
th oa-ald kick being Jth poaalblllty Jn
th former ess of very short passes
and conaequantly of greater accuracy.
It Is eaay to see. then, that as between
the two, the wn-std kick will probably
prove the much more practical weapon.
Taking up now the third and laat Dlc
of leglelation . affecting th. opening up
of th game, the partial readoptlon f
high tackling, we find ourselves able
to refer to past history and to talk with
some considerable measure of confi
dence. High tackling will help th
offense for the reason that It Will re

necessity of protecting hla body from

Summing up now-the various conclu
sions which I hav reached. It seems
to m that the new game will be cleaner,
that maaa play will b reduced. - that
more open play will b frequently aeen
and that there will be much more kick
ing. I believe, also, that we ahall hava
aa many Injuries as heretofore, owing
to tne increase or open play, and- that
theae Injuries will ba centered espe
cially about the lege, since the forward
paaa and on-side kick will afford many
opportunities for one player to block
off an opponent (who will be 111 pre
pared to atand th shock because he
will not be expecting It) In order to
give on of hla comrades a better
chance.at recovering a ball which ther
would be soma doubt about hla belna
able to do In case th opponent war
allowed to try for It Other Injuries are
threatened, . it aeema to me. aa a result
of th fact that th ball will be common
property for much mora of th time.

tions are wise and justifiable If they
lead to discussion which, in turn, may

still open, but It la likely that the col
lege boy who wore the winged M at
the Bpokan meet and startled the ath-
letlo world with his great performance
will have It recorded. A rigid investi
gation of th record la being mad by
the officials of the A. A. U.. who have
reached no decision, although It is
learned from intervlowa with President
Tom McCab of th Amateur Athletlo
Union that he favor giving Kelly all
the creUtthatish-Tcan. vn te waiving

bly be a bar to the union's recognition
of Kelly's performance. .'
President McCabe has been to Beat

elsl of th meat and gathered a pile
of affidavits which he will pa. to th
board. President MeC aba's lnvestlga
t'on covered a period of several days
both at Spokane, wher Kelly made hla
record, and at Seattle, where the other
runners in the great meet wer Inter
viewed. On hi return to New Tork
President McCab eald he waa In favor
of giving Kelly fuU credit for hla per
formance. 'The more I Investigate the alleged
record." said Mr.' HcCabe, the more
I are Inclined to accept It a a reality.
I use alleged' advisedly, for whll per
sonally I bellev th mark given Kelly
I correct it will have to b paaaed upon
by the board before it' Is established.

which have bean filed ther 1 only on
point against ita acceptance by th
self when he went th journey with

longs, but waved, distress signals with
her Bag after going seven parts of the
journey, for sh had never even worked
a faat mil and did not know what har
rider waa celebrating. Th eld brother
to Henry of Navarre won, going away
by a length. As 1:11 waa tfearcatcn
