Drastic Changes Made In
College Football Rules
By Carl Lundqulit "
United Press Staff Correspondent
New York, April 8 U.R)
College football legislators, "de
frosting" the rules in an effort to
keep pace with the increasingly
popular pro game, assured spec
tators today that they have
made the sport easier to watch
and wider open offensively.
The National Collegiate Ath
letic Association authorized five
changes by the Rules Commit
tee yesterday, including a dras
tic penalty for the use of the
out-of-bounds klckoff and legali
sation of forward passing any
where behind the line of scrim
mage. . . .
The out-of-bounds penalty
does not affect the first klckoff,
but the kicking team must re
peat the play. If the second
klckoff is out of bounds, the re
ceiving team shall put the ball
In play at the point from which
It was kicked, the kicking team's
40-yard line. The rules makers
also provided for use of an ele
vated one-inch tee tor ine kick
off to provide accuracy.
The liberalization of the for
ward pass play eliminates the
' previous restriction making pass
ers operate five yards or more
behind the line or scrimmage.
The minor changes provide
that substitutes may report to
any official, the center in pass
ing the ball may have no part
of his body ahead of it and nts
feet must be behind It, and if a
player uses his hands or arms
in blocking, he must have his
hands In contact with his own
body.

AS IT REFEREE
Portland, Me., April a (U.R)
Sabe Ruth, making three times
as much for one wrestling match
s for a single game in his home
run hey-day with the Yankees,
wasn't sure whether to go on
as a mat referee today, but he
did know for certain that "it's
great to be back In sports again."
The bambino, greatest base
ball slugger of all time, admitted
that he had gone to wrestling for
a career because the executives
of the diamond had snubbed him
for 11 years since he laid down
his bat and glove.
Getting $1,(100 per match for
Ms work as third man, he had
to take plenty of punishment to
earn it. Handling a match be
tween Leo Numa of Seattle,
Wash., and Manuel Cortex of
East Boston, ha was threatened
constantly by Cortci, the "tough
man" In the act. Cortex threat
ened to hit the Babe and ad
vanced toward h I m several
times, but Ruth stood his ground
and yanked the pair apart vig
orously on numerous occasions.

SEALS DEFEATED
By United Press
Some Pacific Coast League
managers were seriously think
ing today of taking out accident
insurance on their pitchers.
This sad state of affairs has
been brought about by prodig
ious stlckwork on the part of
several clubs during the three-day-old
season. If it keeps up,
the poor moundsmen aren't go
ing to be able to duck all the
line drives that have been
screeching out to the fences.
For example, the Los Angeles
Angels shellacked the San Fran
cisco Seals, 16 to 8, yesterday
after the two clubs had partici
pated in several games that re
sembled the national pastime,
The Seals led, 3-2, until the last
of the sixth when the Angels
made less than 2,000 customers
dizzy by tallying 11 times.
Portland massacred Oakland
again, 0-2, while Seattle tram
pled on San Diego, 12-1, and
Sacramento whipped Hollywood
0-1.
