Quarter Back Suffering From Fever, While Giants End (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, Oct. 10. Football officials have boon given such conflicting Interpretations ot tlio two important changes in tho rules Inaugurated this year, one ot which changes radically tho scoring system, that tho rules committee ot tho American Intorcollegiulo foothall asaoclntlon today issued a statement in an attempt to clear tho uacion, Moet of the trouble its pver tho new rule designed to change tho play after a touchdown is made from a try to a goal from a place kick, to "try for point" through ono of three methods.

Some teams electing a "try for point" by kicking goal, have claimed the point when the kick failed and one of tho'ir men recovered the ba'H and rushod it behind the opposing goal. In somo instances, reforoes and other officials havo erroneously upheld tiie contention, U. K. Tlall, clialrmun of tho rules committee, said. Mr.

Hall pointed out Hint ft team having chosen to "try for point" by kicking, lost, when the kick failed. The new rule, ho added, does not permit the conversion of a play. "RulQ says the stntnment, "provides that a team which has mado a touchdown may add ono additional point by successfully executing 'in single play any one' of tho following: By a gonl from Infield, by completing a forward pass In the end zone or by carrying thu lmll across the line. "The words 'any one' nro significant and should bo literally con. stnied.

Accordingly, should such team attempt to kick a goal and the attempt bo blockod by the defenders of tho gonl, the play ends. The ball Is dead and any attempt to ro-cover and rush tho hall across the goal lino is useless." The remainder of tho confusion Is over tho new rule regarding substitutes (rulo III, section 2) which provides that "a player who has been withdrawn from tho game dur-Injr the half may return at any tlnlo during the second half. A player withdrawn during the second half may not return to the game." Tho statement says: "Whtlo this rule does not In tonus refer to ft player who flnlslied tho first half, but ivas withdrawn during the intermission between tho two halves, the purpose is clear and there' is no reason why such a player should not bo allowed to return to tho game any time during tlio second half." haH bedn out nf for nQiirly two weeks with uh injured Unec-. will return, ub will Irwin Uteritz, who nitoud tho TH SLIGHT-CHANGE Yhon old Columbus landed With his excited crew, When ho was neatly atranded In fourteen ninety-two, No wonder he felt lonesome Aud alnost went insane, With not a single golf course From Florida to Maine.

During the discussion that followed Lajoie took up tho big part which tho human eye plays in competitive sport. "You hear a lot," he remarked, "about the arms and legs, and feot, tho nervous system and several other side lines.

But don for.ot Whether it's baseball, golf, tennis or boxintr, the eye' plays a leading role. Most bad batting in baseball comes becmiHo the batsman takes his eye off tho ball Just ns or Just after it leaves thu pitcher's hand. Most of tho mistakes in golf result from tho same c-tnsc. Tito m.in with tlio right typo of eye can Judge speed and pace from tho pitcher iii a better way and he can judge the distances at golf, whether it be mashie pitch or a. putt.

Tho discussion started when we referred tn his old knuck on the first sprinff practice day of hlttfns a ball, no matter where thrown at his feet, back of him, over him, or anywhere In reach, "it was all In the eye," he said, "which suy at opce where, tho ball was going and sent its message to tho urms and hands." Lajolo had another knack of making up his mind in advunce to hit tho next ball, if it wero anywhere near tho plate. Ho preferred this system to waiting until the ball had started, "Decision is the main point," he remarked. "Lack of fixed decision has ruined muny a swing at bat and many a awing with a golf It Ib a great thing to know ahead just what you Intond to do. nil dnnbiH removed. If you aro still guessing you swing as so many are in both baseball and -f icsult is pretty sure to be a spotty." "And how I'd like to take a few wallops nt this modern ball," La.1oie said.

"It makes tho old ono feel as ns ti Ir IpU. In tint Old Timers' game at Boston thought I was hitting a golf ball. No wonder the homo run crop Is heavy.

Bulldogs and Vols, tho Commodore mentors aro wading waist deep In the briar path. Another chapter in the Mich-igan-Vandy diamond feud, which was climaxed with considerable heckling by both factions in April, is to be written when the stadium is opened. In that baseball bout Uteritz mado himself very, very unpopular with the Commodores by hit hickeringt. Bonds of friendship wero rent asunder through tha diamond duel outcome, which left the Wolverines with very little luscious fruit. When parting time came there was no end of razzing be-twasn the two loos, with the Wolverines threatening ven-goance against the Vandy folks when they met again in moleskin.

The Commodores are whetting their sabers to rnow tf own Uteritz, tho Wolverine quarter, whilo tho Wolverines aro harboring several mellow grudges against Tot McCullough.
