This will make the try for point after touchdown more difficult. In the opinion .of th» rules committee it will avold pos- sible injuries and interference with plays on the goal line. Under the new setting of the posts it will not be so easy to take the three points offered by a field goal when the six of seven points resulting from a touchdowa seems a remote possibility. Now with the ball of the 15-yard line a drop or placement kick must travel 25 yards from the line of | serimmage. i Under the rules of 1927 theny must be no “beating the ball” from shift or huddle plays. In il such plays the players¥must come | to an absolute stop and remain stationary in their new positions without movement of the feet o1 swaying of the body for approxi mately one second. The rules committee suggosts that a convenient way to meacure this period is to count rapidlv “one-two-three-four.” It tells offi cials that in case of doubt the pen- alty shall be enforced. Referees, umpires, field judges and lines- men are charged with respon sibility for enforcing the “stop” rule. The penalty for violation will Le 15 yards. Speed Up Game In an effort to speed the game the rules on “delay of the game"” have been amended. Each captain will now be permitted to ask that time be called three times in esch half instead of four as befors.

If incompleted, will be dead. The ball shall belong (v the passing side at the point it struck the ground or went out of bounds, and the play shall count as a down.
