If he had held the ball the side would have been out with- out a run and New York might have won the series. After this muff other players of the New York team made misplays that were quite costly.

Boles is an advocate of the rush- Ing and kicking game and asserts that the unrestricted use of the for ward pass has put the gridiron game in the category of an “outdoor bas ketball” contest. He thinks, furthermore, that the open game leaves too much to the judgment of officials, besides mak: ing them work much harder. “I believe the public is getting tired’ of lucky plays which enable in many instances, a weaker tet to defeat a stronger team,” ho said and although I suppose it will not come this year, I believe the time ts coming when the rushing and kick ing fame of football will be made a thore prominent feature of the at tack.”" Boles is not in favor of doing away with the forward pass but be. Heyes that {ts use should be limited by rule. He suggests the following changes: Limiting the number of forward passey to each quarter.
