HALL SINGS PRAISES TO THE GAME OF FOOTBALL

Chairman of the Rules Committee Says It Contains Practically Every Element Necessary to the.

Highest Type of Sport

N E W YORK, Dec . 30—Football to ­day conta ins practically every e lement necessary to the highest type of sport, In the opinion of E. K. Hal l o f N e w York, chairman of t h e American In-

.tercojlegiate Footbal l Rules Commit­tee , expressed In h i t a n n u a l report today to the Nat ional Intercollegiate Ath le t i c Associat ion.

On t h e whole. Mr. Hall amy*, the re­su l t s from c h a n g e s m a d * In the rule* of 1924 h a v e been grat i fy ing; but the c o m m i t t e e undoubtedly wil l consider re turning the point of kickoff to the 40-yard line to e l iminate t h e largo number of touohbacks w h i c h occurred during the pas t s eason a n d a t the s a m e t ime returning t o . t h e g a m e one of i ts m o s t thrilling plays , tit* runback of kickoff.

"Every year s ince the rules h a v e been in substant ia l ly the ir present form," the report says ," t h e g a m e h a s increased i n popularity a n d in i ts possibil it ies. E a c h y e a r It s e e m s a s If t h e Interest in the g a m e had reached a m a x i m u m and the n e x t year s h o w s e v e n greater interest than before. 1 « m satisfied that the reason for th i s i s found In the fact that the g a m e c o n ­ta ins practical ly e v e r y e l ement e s s e n ­t ia l to the h ighest t y p e of s p o r t

"be incomplete wi thout cal l ing a t ten­tion to the fact that t h e g a m e a s now played does not begin t o put the s train on p layers wh ich t h e old g a m e

,-eJd. One needs only to look at the s chedu le s of 1924. which would h a v e been deemed unthinkable a f ew years ago , and then note the fact that s o m e Of the t e a m s which played the hard­e s t schedules c a m e up to their final

' f a m e s in the pink of condition." Critics of t h e forward p a s s in foot-

" hall are "offside" In the majority opin-ion of the nat ion's coaches and e a s t ­ern officials.

- las t week voted their unanimous ob­ject ion to a n y tamper ing w i t h this de­partment of football.

H. M. Gore, w h o had characterized the pas s a s a "menace," kept h i s prom­ise to refrain from urging a decision upon the coaches a t th i s t ime. H e filed his proposals w i t h the rules commit ­tee of the Associat ion but none of them were reported for consideration. Gore would score only three points for a touchdown obtained by the aerial method.

Discuss ions in the lobby of the Hotel Astor and in rooms adjacent to the meeting- hall Indicate a disposition on the part of t h e mentors to place confi­dence In the public's abil ity to est i ­m a t e t h e v a l u e of football a s i t i s p layed today. W i t h a record a t tend­a n c e of more than 10.000.000 this s e a ­son, it w a s argued that the g a m e had ga ined tremendous headway and that

.noth ing should be done which might Imperil progress .

M a s t Satisfy Public - In the opinion of W . R. Okenson,

president of the eastern officials, w h o has officiated at m a n y of the country's leading gridiron batt les , the defens ive and offensive balance appears to have been attained. Football , he says , m u s t be a g a m e to sat is fy the public.

Under t h e old s ty le of play, wh ich he th inks m i g h t be returned wi th abolit ion or restriction of the forward pass , the col lege h a v i n g the greates t p o u n d a g e and the largest number of subst i tutes invariably won the contest . T h e result w a s a foregone conclusion.

Recommendat ions approved by the coaches ' group included the return of the kickoff point from mid Held to the 45-yard line, w i th the use of a tee not to exceed four inches In he ight ; abolition of the first down on an off­side penal ty un less the offensive team ga ins more than i ts distance thereby; a l lotment of responsibil ity for rough­i n g of the kicker to t h e head l inesman instead of the referee, a n d abolit ion of the first down for a blocked kick be­hind t h e l ine u n l e s s t h e ball i s recov­ered at or beyond t h e point to be gained.

Other promis ing candidates for for­ward posit ions are P. E . Smi th '27. I. W . Myers 'Z1, s n d C O. Phillips"'27, members of last year's freshman team. Phil l ips wil l be a s t rong candidate If he c a n meet t h e eligibility require­ments .

tion o n the H a w k e y e quintet hah been close. Leonard Raffensperger '27, las t year's f reshman captain, has d is ­placed H.

F inding a pair of guards to fin the p laces left vacant by W. K. H i c k s '24, J. H, F u n k '24, and C. A. D u h m '25, has been Coaoh Barry's chief concern t h i s season.

V A N C O U V E R , B . C , Dec. 30 (Spe ­cial) — Vancouver defeated Regina hers last night , 6 to 5. T h e locals s tarted well , fell away , and then came back s t r o n g to win . Good, bad, and indifferent hockey featured a contest t h a t wi l l cont inue l o n g in the mem­ory of those w h o saw it. Vancouver , anx ious to avoid fal l ing in to last place, started l ike a championship aggrega­tion. In 10 minutes the coast players had a three-goal lead, but »thts gradu­ally dwindled down until , w i t h little more than 10 minutes remaining for play, Reg ina had not only tied but a s sumed a one-goal advantage .

T h e Vancouver defense lacked method, and Reid w a s kept working all the t ime until the local forwards finally got their scor ing power work­ing again.

Bos trum opened the scor ing for Vancouver a l ittle more than a minute after the s tart w i th a shot from a good distance o u t a s the de­fense closed in on him. A minute later Frank Boucher made It two on a nice pas s from Duncan . Matte scored the third after another e ight minutes w i t h a sharp shot from close range. Before the period ended H a y broke through for Reg ina .

The start of the second period was the s ignal for' l i s t less play by V a n ­couver. After 13 minutes Abour started a lone rush and scored Vancouver's fourth goal, f w o minutes later Irvln reduced the lead after receiv ing from Newel l and before the period ended Shore- scored Regina's third with a fast -dropping shot , which w a s the culmination of the evening's best In­dividual effort.

In the third period Reg ina again g o t under w a y and it came a s no sur­prise w h e n Irvln and McVeigh broke through in quick success ion and g a v e the Prairie aggregat ion the lead.

I t looked a s If Vancouver w a s in for another defeat w h e n F r a n k Boucher sho t a back pas s from Arbour and the puck crashed into the ne t for the equal iz ing goal with about four m i n ­utes left for play. L e s s than two min­utes later M a c k a y scored a brilliant goal after receiving from Duncan.

Vancouver scored three goa l s whi le Reg ina had a player o n the penal ty bench. T h e s u m m a r y :

waived on Outfielder C. H. Shorten, In-flelder L. A. Fonseca and Shortstop James Caveney of the Cincinnati Na­tional League Baseball Club, A G. Herr-mans ,

THE new Montreal proferstonal team has an odd record. The team has scored 17 goats, less than two per

game, and has an average of two goals a game against it. I t s position in third place is remarkable for such a low scor­ing mark. -*

Jack Fitzgerald, Boston College goal-tender, continues to break rulee«as a net guardian. Rule 14 in regard to a goalie prohibits him from lying, sitting, or kneeling on the Ice during play. Ref­erees are partially responsible for not warning him and then inflicting just penalty.

Dye, wing for St. Patricks, i s a valu­able man to have on a team. He scored three goals In four minutes against Otta­w a in the final period Saturday, Just one short of tying the score. He played the best game that night that he has ever been shown in Toronto. The St. Patrick forwards hit the Ottawa goal posts four times with the goalie a t the opposite end of the net.

LaFrance, new center man for Duluth. will be out of the team lineup for a month or more. ,

That western division of the United States Amateur Hockey Association would make an excellent ground for. a professional league that would rival the N. H. L. or W. C. H. A within a year or two. • t"'\'

Lloyd Cook and Fred Harris, w h o re­cently played with Boston, have failed to come to terms with the Vancouver Club owners and It Is pot likely that they will play with the local club accord­ing to present indications.

B o t h t e a m s seemed to s h o w the s train of the s teady pace they have been under and the g a m e a t t imes w a s s low and did not please t h e crowd of 3500 per­sons w h o turned out for the debut.

T h e brilliant offensive play that a t t imes w a s broken Into a s the forward l ines al ternated In showing bursts of speed, mixed in wi th caut ious defensive play and nurs ing of t h e puck that pre­cluded m a n y s tops by the goalies .

Clarence Abel, member of the United Sta tes Olympic t eam of last winter , was one of St. Paul 's s tars . H e scored the first goal short ly af ter t h e s tar t when he followed in his o w n rebound after a rush.

T h e St. Pau l skaters scored a n ­other in the second period after e ight m i n u t e s of play had elapsed, w h e n Harry Quesnelle , A. J. Conroy and E m m e t t Garrett w e n t down abreast . T h e three -man combination pene­trated the defense of N . D. Clark and P e r c y Galbraith a n d Garrett passed to Quesnelle, w h o missed the sliding disk. Conroy picked It u p and shot into the net.

Th i s seemed to spur E v e l e t h and J. C. Klnghorn came through wi th a score, w h e n he shot i n : h i s own re­bound before W. B. Ell iott could re­cover from the s top. T h e s u m m a r y :

on the night train for Canada wi th a 2- to- l victory.

T h e Tigers were part icularly de ­sirous of w inn ing to tie the Canadiens, for the t w o t e a m s m e e t tomorrow night to dispute the lead in Hamil ton, the Tigers ' home Ice. Hami l ton pre­viously defeated Boston 7 to 1 In Hamil ton and s ince then t h e Bru ins have lost by large scores and on paper i t appeared a n e a s y victory for the visitors. Such w a s not the case , how­ever, and had it not been for the stellar goal tending of Vernon Forbes, Hamil ton might h a v e seen defeat in ­s tead of victory.

Roach, a former Bos ton boy, w a s started a t left w i n g a s a sort of c o m ­pl iment and he immediate ly took the aggress ive , pass ing the puck o u t from behind the local net, W. Green hooking i t o u t of a s c r i m m a g e a n d scoring. Shortly afterward the s a m e Greeu carried, drew t h e local defense aside, and passed to Roach w h o t imed his shot by Dr. Charles Stewart , n e w B o s ­ton goalie.

F r o m t h a t t ime unti l late in the third period no scoring took place, but exce l lent hockey w a s evidenced a t all t imes , wi th Hamil ton s h o w i n g up superior because of a pass ing game that even excel led that of Ot­t a w a a n d Canadiens o n their vis i t Hamilton's offense eas i ly bested the local forwards, but found difficulty wi th the defense where Boston showed great improvement , Herberts and Stuart p lay ing finely.

Boston displayed a semblance of t e a m work and obtained -good re ­sults . T h e local t eam also employed a three -man defense that aided, keep­ing a w a y the Hamilton at tackers . Both Forbes and Stewart in the goals did remarkably wel l w i th spectacular s a v e s and exhibit ing except ional judg­m e n t in emergencies . Forbes stopped 34 drives and Stewart 41.

T h e final period became rough and a t one t ime each team played wi th a goalie, two defense men and one for­ward, wh ich resulted in a n intact de ­

ed victory In the first round over the present champions . College of the Cttj , «. of N e w York, winn ing one game, wtt l t the other three adjudicated a s draws* and breaking e v e n o n g a m e s wi th t h * Univers i ty of Pennsy lvania , w i t h t w o , victories each.
