CHANGE IN RULES IS fAVORED Unfortunate Accidents of 1909 8eason Causes Sentiment In Favor of a Still More Open Game. Tho fourth annual meeting of the Intoreolloglntc Athletic Association of tho Unltud States was hold at New York on December 28. Dr. Clnpp, who ropreBonted Nebraska at the meeting, reports that this was tho best attended meeting over held by tho association. About 100 of the largest colleges and universities were represented, and thoro weroibout 125 college mon prosont. Tho association has grown to tho oxtent Hint there are now only four large colleges outside of tho fold. These are Yale, Annnpo- lis, Cornell and Princeton, Harvard to be contemplating application for and Pennsylvania having Joined this tho places. year. Of thoBo four Cornell has slg-J It wub omphatlcnlly stated at tho nlflod Its Intention of Joining and It Is bureau that the test will bo an em thought that bofore long the other lnently rcnsonablo and practical one, three shall signify their Intention or similar to that applied to applicants becoming members. I at the twelfth census, it will consist Discuss Football Rules. One of tho most Interesting and population from a description, In nar Important features of tho meeting wniratlvo form, of typical families; and, tho discussion of tho football rulos. in tho case of enumerators whoso work The past season has been a particular-! will be In tho rural districts, they will ly unfortunate one In regard to injur-, be called 'upon to fill out an additional los, thoro having been more casual ties last rail than for miny seasons past. Several of the large schools last fall suffered unusual Injuries and the West Point team cancelled all dates after an Injury resulting In tho death of one or their plrycrs. Tho opinion of thoBo present was that, unless somu radical change Is made In the rules, the game cannot long survive. Dr. Clapp said that ovon tho most conser vative football coochoB were in favor of Bomo revision that would ollmlnate the ducigeroiiB fen lures. At the con clusion of the discuBBlon a motion was passed Instructing the members or the committee on football rules to use every effort to secure the desired re vision. The general heller js that the committee will make some radical changes, as they feel tluit tho whole game is at stake. Among the changes suggested were many tht havo been advocated here tofore by prominent football men. Tho Idea seemed to bo to make the game more open, and nvold tho mnss plays To do this It was suggested to remove lestrlctlons on tho forward pnBs such as tho fifteen ynrd penalty, or tho re quirement that the paBS must bo made five yjlds outside of center. Another suggestion waB to i rotect the man re ceiving tho pass in the same way as the punter Is now protected. Other ruggestions wero fo eliminate tho neu tral zouo between tho two lines of Hcrlnunugo and to bring the secondary Uuo of defense forward or make thorn play further back. To do the latter It would bo necessary to Increase tho distinct) to bo mnde In three downs or cut out mass plays altogether. Roth of those suggestions wero made. "An other suggestion that mot with some favor was to make tho lino more open by making tho men play five yards apart. Composltlpn of Committee. Tho coinmltteo on football rules Is composed of fourteen men. Seven of those aro chosen by the association and sevon by the following .collegoB.

HE MEANS RY "PLAN" NEBRA8KA 8TUDENT AN8WER8 REQUE8T OF SIOUX CITY MAYOR. IOWA TOWN IS STILL IN DOUB Lack of Any 8cmblance of a Plan 8loux City Causing Great Unrest In Municipal Circles. In James Ayres, tho Nebraska student who stirred up Sioux City municipal officials by requesting details of Sioux City's "plan," Is still having difficulty in "showing" tho Iowa residents. Ho answered tho mayor'o inquiry as to what a "plan" was, but still tho mayor claims to be In doubt. Tho following from a recent Issue of tho Sioux City Journal tells tho story: Tho mystery has been solved. Mayor W. G. Sears now knows what a "plan" Is, at least ho should, because James A. Ayres, a young collegian of Lin coln, Neb., who is writing a thesis on "City Planning," has written tho mayor In answer to on Inquiry, a slx pago lotter explaining tho term "plan." A plan, he Snys, Is not "billboards or pavement." A plan is "not govern ment." H1h plan deals with tho "struc ture of the city." Tho mayor feels suro the city has "some structure," henco a plan. But the burgomaster's theory Is disputed by the newspaper men who discovered that Ayres' plan has to do with tho future dovclopmcnt of a city. Besides structure tho city also must buvo a future to get into tho thesis. Tho mayor Is confident Sioux City has a future. Locate Buildings. In order to have a plan Ayres says the city must have "a plan for the location of public buildings." The mayor Is sure that all Sioux City's public buildings aro located. "Civic centers and neighbor conters" are also Included In the plan. Tho mayor be fore assuring the young man that Sioux City has centors for "neighbors" and "civics," doclared ho nileht he v forced to put the matter up to tho city council. The plan Ayres further defines as "a plan for tho dovelopmont of the city along soclnl, economic, hygienic and aesthetic lines." The innyor gasp ed when he read this. There was a rumor at the city hall that as a result of Ayres' communica tion Sioux City would get busy on a "plan." It Is suggested that to be dif ferent the city should sot out several aoroplano parks. This, It Is conceded, would be "aesthetic." it also Is felt that tho draft on the streets Is too strong and somo proposo for "hygonlc" reasons that wuIIb be built at the ends of the streets to Btop tho course of tho windB. To bring out tho "soclnl" requirements of the "plan" grand balls might bo held every twenty minutes in the Auditorium, and tho city could bo "economic" by paying tho highway men $20 a month to cense pulling off street car holdups.
