Football Rules.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The committee on football revision met in New York on Saturday and agreed upon the following changes in the rules:

Piling upon men when down shall incur a penalty of 15 yards,

A man who makes a fair catch shall, if thrown, be given 15 yards.

Flying and momentum mass-plays shall not be allowed.

After a drop kick for goal on one down, the ball shall be brought back to the 10 yard line and not to the 25 yard line, as heretofore.

A touchdown shall count 2 points; touchdown with goal 3 points; goal from field 3 points; safety 1 point. In case of tie the side kicking greater number of goals from touchdowns shall have one point added to its score.

Delays from any cause shall not exceed three minutes; only one official representative of each side shall be allowed upon the field; penalties for off-side play and holding shall be increased from five yards to ten yards.

These suggestions will be sent to the several colleges for approval before they are formally adopted.
