U A CHANGE
Free for All Scramble Will
Be Eliminated From.
Football Next Year.
(Calted Press Leased Wire.)
New York, Jan. 5. The wild and
free-for-all scramble following a fum
bled forward pass is to bs eliminated
from football next season by . a rule
paaaed today at the meeting of the
American Intercollegiate football rules
committee, .in session nere. wo otner
lmDOrtant changes ware arreed iinnn.
but Interest centers In doing away with
the forward pass. While the new rule
hag not yet been put in formal - lan
guage, the changes involved are: . In
tuture tne xorwaru pass, which is ram
bled after having been legally touched
by a member of theteam mult in at the
piay, win go to tne opponent at tn
snot where the naea la made nrniHdei
the ball is recovered by the side not
msaing tne paaa. an order to prevent
the indiscriminate scramble which waa
the feature of last season's rules, the
new ruie provides mat only tne man
who f lust legally touches the bait may
thereafter recover It If ha fumbles, un
til it has been touched by an opponent.
To define lust what a defending side
may do in a forward pass, It was de
cided that while the ball Is in the
air the players on tha defending side
may- use their hands and arms only
in getting their opponents out of the
way to get at the ball Itself. The play
ers on the side maklnsr the van who
are unable to receive It may use their
hands Just as players going down field
on a kick. '
Another change resulting from the
trouble In .. the - Yale-Princelon rama
when the former team remained off the
field 14 minutes,: changes the intermis
sion 1 time from 10 to 1 14 mtnaf.. anA
?rovides that the referee shall let each
earn know S minutes in advance of
the time they are due on ' the field.
-1 It waa also decided that the score in
all forfeited games shall be one to
nothing, this particular score being
used because it could be earned in no
other way in football. '
