NKW YORK, Dec. !i.-A change In
foot ball rulee to a to allow freer um
of the 'forward pass, the promotion of
soccer foot .ball, the elimination of the
professional coach In college sports, the
doing away with gat receipts and. the
recognition of summer baee ball playing
as legitimate were some of the questions
discussed before 100 delegates to the sixth
annual meeting of the National Collegiate
Athletic association here yeeterday.
The present foot bslt rules on the whole
arc satisfactory and ought to be dis
turbed as little as poss,i:e, according to
the report of the chsirman of the rule
committee, pr. If. L. Williams, coach of
the University of Minnesota, but were
criticised by him as giving too much ad
vantage on wet days to an Inferior team
which, on a muddy field, lie said, oould
nullify the most brilliant defense. In re
gard to the forward pass, he ld:j
"'There. Is no question' that under the
present rules the development and skill
ful execution of the forward pans is one
of the most Important factors ot an effi
cient attack. If the restriction of twenty
yard beyond the line of scrimmage wrre
removed and no limit a to th distance
put on the throw, simply providing that
the man making th catch rhould get
th halt before It strikes th ground, I
believe the rules would be Improved and
strengthened."
i
". Soccer Committee Named.
Sentiment In favor of aoccer foot ball
waa crystallised by the appointment of a
committee headed by Dr. James A. liab
bltt of Maverford corieae to form an as
sociation to plo, the game. Dr. Babbitt,
refcortlrl? forthe central board of offi
cials, predicted that soccer foot ball waa
destined to become the favorite outdoor
sport. a view upheld by Prof. W, .
Oareelon of Harvard and by R. Tel t-Melt
en tie ot the University of Pennsylvania.
. Th discussion of summer baa , ball
brought out varying opinions a to
whether the amateur law should and
could be strictly enforced. ,
Captain Palmer L. Pierce, president of
the association, predicted that summer
base ball playing by college men tor pay
had como to stay.
"Th question is shall It he permitted
and be considered as not affecting the
player's amateur standing," he said, "or
shall it be permitted openly, hot effect
ive steps be taken to prevent the player
from representing his college In inter
collegiate contests."
The view that strict application ot the
amateur law to summer base ball could
not be enforced was4warmly supported
by other speakers,
lllaor haee Sajtaesled.
Only minor changes were suggested by
the committee on basket ball and track
rules. Tha present committees In the
various branchea of sport were elected
with some additions and the foot, ball
rules committee waa requested to report
and pubiieh It rule . In the spring in
stead of the fall to promote tha open
gam to 'formulate a plan for redaclng
as far as possible the number ot offi
cials. A redlstrlctlnc olan hv iiiiu
adopted and these officers were elected;
captain raJmer K. Pierce, president; II.
W. Johnston of th University of Indi
ana, vice president ; Prof. T. W. Wool

President Taft has been urged by re
publican leaders to take a deeper Interest
In the pre-convenUon campaign. At least.
It is said he has consented that a' Taft
headquarters be opened In Washington at

quarters may depend on the conference
to be held In Washington the early, part
of next week, In which the president
Mr. Barnard and Secretary Charles D.

meeting of the republican national com
mittee In Wasnlngton,. December 12, and
