COLLEGE SURGEONS | WILL CHANGE RULES Cutting and Slashing Will Be in Order at Big Meeting Tonight i New York, Feb. 6.—Football rule < makers will have a strenuous session 1 to-night in this city in the efforts of < the various intercollegiate representa tives to prove that changes in the ! game are needed. The numbering of i players, a field judge, elimination of coaching from side lines and cutting i down the value of a field goal are ; some of the changes that will be , taken up. < Chairman Edward K. Hall, repre- ; senting Dartmouth, has stated that i few radical changes appear likely. ( Professor A. A. Stagg, of Chicago Vni- ( versity, is on his way east with a list ] of some twenty-odd proposals which he desires to see incorporated in the code. Walter Camp, of Yale, states that while intercollegiate football has 1 reached a high state of perfection, I there is still room for development. Mr. Camp will advocate the addition of a field judge to the present corps of football officials. He believes that the quick plays, kicks and forward passes are too many and complicated t for the present referee and umpire. ] Other more technical changes, such as moving the goal posts back, alter ing the rule which keeps a ball in play 1 after striking the post from a kick-off and requires a linesman to have both , hands, both feet, or one hand and one foot, on the line of scrimmage, will also be considered. A change is likely in the rule which makes it possible for a runner who is forced backward in attempting to circle the ends to throw the ball to the ground for an uncompleted forward I pass, thus nullifying the loss of ground. The members of the present com mittee, which is the result of the j amalgamation of the intercollegiate j committee and the National Collegiate j Athletic Association, are as follows: I Intercollegiate Committee—Professor j A .A. Stagg, Chicago; Captain Joseph Beacham, Cornell; Crawford Blagden, Harvard; Professor Paul J. Dashiell, Navy: William N. Morice. Pennsylva nia; Parke H. Davis, Princeton, and Walter Camp, Yale. 1 National Collegiate Committee— Lieutenant D. I. Sultan, Army; E. K. I Hall, Dartmouth; Professor .T." A. Bab- I bitt, Haverford: Professor S. C. Wil liams, lowa State; Professor C. W. Savage, Oberlin: Harris Cope, Sewanee, and Dr. H. L. Williams, Minnesota. Albright Tossers to Play Harrisburg Five Through a timely booking, Manager I E. C. Taggert secured the Albright I College five as the, attraction for the i Armory to-morrow night. Albright will come to Harrisburg with their star line-up and promise to give Har risburg tossers a hard battle. This game is one of the bookings made possible by the recent decision on the part of several college man agers to get acquainted with crack teams in all cities where former col lege men are now playing. The Al bright five is a good one and Harris burg will have to travel a fast pace to win. With the Albright College | team will be Charles Kelchner, well | known to many Harrisburgers as one J of the best all-round athletic directors and managers in the State. The game will start at 8.15 o'clock. It will be followed with dancing. N.VJOHNSON cl? B£LL PHOS/£. Ueiform Basket! Needed to Im] Official Referees Also Urged in Interest of Clean Official referees appointed by an (i: interscholastic association with power r to inflict penalties on basketball play- . ers who resort to rough tactics and mar games by their language and c rowdyism will be urged by athletic v directors in local high schools for next A season, according to a statement made a last night. Uniform rules are also be- c ing agitated. t "Basketball will never become pop- c ular as a national sport until there is a governing body." was the opinion s expressed by Professor Percy L. s Grubb, of the Technical high school, c yesterday. "Uniform miles and penal- c ties for rough work are also needed, i and I do not believe these reforms will s come about without the aid of a scho- c lastlc association in control. \ "In'every town there is a different t Romans Won Series 1 in Academy Contest The Romans won the final game in the inter-form basketball series at Harrisburg Academy, defeating the Greeks, score 41 to 40.

Manager Mike O'Neill, of the Utica New York State League team, is anxious to land Catcher Ed. McDonough, the Phila delphia boy. from the locals and has made a cash offer to the owners of the Senators for his services, which will most likely be accepted. Presi dent Winchester, of the locals, stated to day that he will select his manager i for 1014 from among Joe O'Rourke. j Joe Raidy and Eddie Phelps, now that George Cockill declined the place. Hfc also said that he is willing to sell the local franchise for $15,990, which is $2,500 less than he would have re ceived from the Erie capitalists. r ' or WON TWO CONTESTS IN BOWLING LEAGUE The Orpheums won out in a double header at the Casino alleys last night, defeating the Colonials by a margin of 148 pins in the first game, and 174 pins in the second game.

Referees, mostly local men with college stand ing, have their own idea, and they overlook the faults of some players while inflicting punishment on others. When rival teams play under rules almost in direct opposition to each other it is pretty hard to assume that the team making the greater number of points is the better team. "In my opinion It would be the simplest thing in the world to have scholastic basketball as well as the other sports handled by a committee of three or five men. The game is now very popular, but it can be made still more interesting with the intro duction of uniform rules and referees who would have the same interpreta tion." Scholastic Games Promise Rare Sport; Central Will Dance Unusual interest is shown in the two scholastic contests scheduled for to-night. Central High will meet Leb anon High at Chestnut Street Hall and Tech will meet Lancaster. These bat tles will be of importance in the pres ent race for this season's scholastic honors. Central has shown excellent form in the last five games, but to night the locals will go up against a practically new team, for Lebanon has a live that has been winning most of the games recently. I-ancaster will be Tech's opponents at Tech High gymnasium. Lancaster is the undefeated live in scholastic circles this season. I»ancaster will not play Central and the game to-night will be the only opportunity to see the crack team from the Lancaster high school. As an added attraction Tech High scrubs will play the Crescents, a team that includes in its line-up sev eral Tech men. All scholastic games in Harrisburg start at 8 o'clock. The added attraction at Chestnut Street Hall will be a big dance program. BITS OF SPORTS A call has been issued for a meet ing of the National League rules com mittee In New York, February 9.
