Coaches And Players
Always Keep One Step
Before Football Rules
The rules of American football,
result of years of study and revi
sion, never have, and probably
never will, catch up with the in
genuity of the keen-minded Am
erican coach and player, and the
natural problems if the game,
There will always be ,a Pop
Warner (who put leather pads on
the elbows of his backs to confuse
the defense in looking for the ball
carrier), a George Woodruff (of
Guards-back fame), or an Ossie
Solem (originator of the "Y" or
reversed center).
In the nine changes made by the
Rules Committee for the 1942 sea
son only two are of any great im
portance, but for the sake of com
plete coverage we shall here list
all changes for 1942.
1. The note covering night balls
has been changed.
2. A change here adds that an
offensive player is considered on
the line of scrimmage only when
"facing the opponents' end line."
3. Minor changes In delay of
game and time out.
4. Penalty for illegal return or
withdrawal of eligible players add
ed along with a note for coaches.
5. This is the second important
change. A new supplemental note
reads, "Unless both Team A and B
charge simultaneously there can
be no such ruling as 'both teams
offside.' If a player .of either
team crosses his line of scrimmage
and contacts an opponent, or draws
the charge of an dpponent, his
team shall l?e•;nenalized- whether
or--notthe• ball-, is. snapped." - " .
Another change in thiS rule
,permits the snapperback to have
any part of his body offside ex-

X-Country Squads
Begin Heavy Drills
There will be no more "light
workouts" for the cross-country
squads from now on, it was in
dicated by Chick Werner. Lion
harrier mentor, last night as he
sent his charges through a tough
workout on the golf course.
Now out of the "conditioning"
stage, the hill-and-dalers went
through intensive practice in an
effort to master the art of run
ning up hills yesterday.
Said Werner, "There is an art
to running up hills, another art
to running down hills, and still
another to running on level
ground." The green and inex
perienced members of the ,"
squad
will learn these different tech
niques under the watchful eye
of Chick and veteran members of
the squad.
A definite date for the initial
time-trials of the season was set
last night. This first squad-cut
will be run off Friday, October
9, giving the remaining members
of the squad a little more than
a week to prepare for the open
ing meet with Manhattan in New
York City.

6. A phrase has been deleted,
and the penalty for illegal inter
ference by the passing team be

been made optional.

from the field may be scored on .a
free kick following a safety, as
well as after a fair catch.
