Foot all
The Foot Ball Rules Committee,
which recently met to discuss the
proposed changes in foot ball, has
finished its work. The most impor
tant of the new rules are as follows:
the distance to be gained is ten
yards in four downs; the forward
pass is allowed; hurdling is pro
hibited; the number of players on
the defensive line is seven instead of
six, and the penalties for rough play
are greatly increased. Necessarily,
foot ball at State is governed by
the Inter-collegiate Rules, and these
alterations in the old rules will be
followed strictly this coming season.
The spring practice has been very
light. It consists of kicking and
playing the old Association game of
Football. The prospects for next
season are good and State's team,
with "Mother" Dunn at its head,
will be as good as ever. According
to the new rules, the game will be
cleaner, and there is no doubt that
foot ball will continue to be a
popular college sport.
Electricals Entertained
Prof. Jackson entertained the
Senior and Junior electricals at his
home on Wednesday evening, May
23. The evening was spent in card
playing and other , social games.
After enjoying this amusement for
some time the Electricals,who have
the reputation of being the hardest
"feeders" in the college, were
ushered to the dining room, where
a luncheon awaited them.
When the tables had been cleared,
toasts were called for from a num
ber of those present. Shortly after
this the men left for their rooms,
each one feeling glad of the fact that
Prof. Jackson is dean of the Elec
trical Department.
A bill has been introduced in the
Virginia House of Representatives
to make the playing of football a
crime. Up to this time this bill has
failed and, in all probability, will
fail to pass, as some of the men
who once played on the University
of Virginia and V. M. I. teams are
opposing it.
