Gridiron Rules Unchanged at Annual Confab N. C. A. A. Comm'ttee Makes Only Clarifications and Minor Revisions. BY LAWTON CARVER Unit'd Fmi Staff Carmpoadml NEW YORK. Feb. 19—Football’s cheering multitudes can go back to the game a* they left it in the chill Os last fall when the 1935 season rolls around because the supreme court of the gridiron has found that the present rules approach perfectlcn.'* Except for minor revisions and clearer interpretations the rules of las: season stand, the first tune in more than 30 years. The annual meeting of the rules Committee of the National Coilegiate Athletic Association was held in customary seerpey at Abescon, N. J, over the week-end and the announcement of what the Coaches and fans regard as joyous news was made last night by Secretary W. S. Langford. Offense, Defense Balanced “We find that the game now approaches perfection.” he said, “providing a maximum of entertainment with a minimum of danger, and offering a long-sought balance between oflense and defense.’’ Lou Little of Columbia, chairman of the coaches committee which recently recommended to the rulemakers that no changes be made, said: "I think Langford crystallized most of the coaches’ sentiments into a verbal touchdown.” Open Play Encouraged The minor changes deemed neces*ary as announced by Langford are: 1. To encourage the open game, a provision was added to the dead bail rule, making it permissable for a runner still on his feet, although tackled, to pass or kick until the Whistle is blown. 2. The rule providing that fouls committed by both teams offset each other is amended by an exception. In case a punted ball is illegally touched by the kicking team and a foul is committed by opponents, the captain of the kicking team may refuse the offsetting penalty. The ball then would belong to the receiving team at the spot why re it was ille- | gaily touched. The rule covering interchanging of linemen and backs was clarified by defining the positions of center, guards and tackles as those occupied by those players when they enter the game. Also, the captain ; r • designate, upon request of officials, the positions of his players. At tucks Team in 4 Battles This Week Four wines are on the schedule j this weeK for the local Crispus Attucks High School basketball team. The Tigers will play at the Butler fieldhouse tomorrow night, meeting Flat Rock in the prelim to the Renaissance-Hilgemeier Packer fray.

Equipoise and Twenty Grand Renew Rivalry Foul in Tune-Up Race Makes Favorite for SIOO,000 Event Uncertain. By United Pr-ss LOS ANGELES, Feb. 19.—Equipoise and Twenty Grand, two timeworn veterans of the race tracks, will be hauled out of the old horses’ home to renew an old rivalry—and incidentally e. richer one than they ever engaged in before —when they go to the post Saturday in the SIOO,000 added Santa Anita Handicap, richest horse race in the world. A sore foot, causing withdrawal of Mrs. Isabel Dodge Sloane’s Cavalcade, last year’s Kentucky Derby winner, prevented a three-way fight among three of the greatest horses of this decade. Rivals Since 1930 Equipoise, owned by C. V. Whitney, and Twenty Grand, property of Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, are 7-year-olds. They campaigned against each other as juveniles in 1930 and both were eligible for the Derby in 1931, but Equipoise was hurt and Twenty Grand won. The Greentree entry tuned up for Saturday’s big race witi*, a victory in yesterday’s Oakwood Handicap, but he needed the help of the stewards to win. Equipoise finished ahead by a length, but fell victim of an old fault—hugging the rail—and was ruled out for fouling Twenty Grand. " ‘Ekky’ Pulling Away Fast Railbirds still had the problem of figuring whether Equipoise, twice retired, could match the Greentree Stable’s revived champion in a straight race for home. “Ekky” unquestionably was pulling away fast when Sonny Workman let him cut into the rail too quickly. With Cavalcade out, the future book odds which made Mrs. Sloane’s entry a heavy favorite, will be well juggled. Twenty-one horses are expected to go to the post. These include—in addition to Equipoise and Twenty Grand—Mate, Sweeping Light, Statesman, Faireno, Time Supply, Head Play, Ladysman, Azucar, Gusto, Riskulus, Top Row, Frank Ormont, Good Goods, High Glee. Gleam, Mad Frump, Ted Clark, Gillie and Pitter Pat. Cavalcade Definitely Out By United Press ARCADIA, Cal., Feb. 19.—Cavalcade, Mrs. Isabel Dodge Sloane’s 1934 champion, has been withdrawn definitely from the SIOO,OOO added Santa Anita Handicap Saturday. Bob Smith, head trainer of Brookmeade stables, said that despite Cavalcade’s rapid improvement after a hoof injury, he would be “taking a chance” to race the horse Saturday. Cavalcade has been out of training fourteen days.

The Theatrical World Ulric Fails to Surmount ‘Pagan Lady’ Handicaps ___ . BY WALTER D. HICKMAN .
PAGAN LADY” always has been a poor play, and neither Lenore Ulric nor any other star can make it a good one. The author. William Dußois. might have heard about Sadie Thompson and her experiences with a missionary when he went in for flesh instead of soul-saving and got the two mixed up. In "Pagan Lady,” Dot Hunter is the three-year companion of Dingo Mike, a big shot bootlegger and rum runner in Florida. Miss Ulric is Dot and Gerald Kent is Dingo. Both admit they are "bums,” and they live up to their own label all the way. Into this small town Florida hotel come the Rev. Malcolm Todd and his nephew, Ernest Todd, bent on being a minister and a missionary to Africa or some place because uijcle has so ordained. Anyway, Dot, in Dingo’s absence, plans a campaign, hardly out of soul-saving, and she wins in a two weeks engagement. Then there is the deuce to pay when Dingo returns, and at that very same time Ernest decides that to save his soul he must make Sister Dot walk the sawdust trail. Dot rebels because she Is reminded by Dingo that they are both “bums” who hit it off pretty well together. Ernest goes back to his flock convinced by Dot that he can preach on sin because he has the inside track on such information. Curtain, and that is “Pagan Lady.” I discovered no great acting. Miss Ulric slinks through the first two acts and in the third exhibits much of the allure which nearly made a bum out of Ernest. Robert Lowes of Indianapolis is Ernest. He apparently was handicapped with a bad cold. His acting is not forced and he does well with an impossible role. John F. Morrissey does right with the Rev. Malcolm Todd and the same may be said of Mr. Kent as Dingo Mike. I have given you my verdict, so be your own judge. At English’s tonight and tomorrow afternoon and night. a Maie Chorus DUSOLINA GIANNINI and the Maennerchor male chorus under the direction of Karl Reckzeh were heard last night at the Academy of Music in a concert which was replete with all the trimmings of musical variety. Miss Giannini, the popular Ameri-can-born Italian soprano, was in splendid voice, delivering her songs with characteristic enegry. Her tones are like long, slender shafts of sound, fragile and brilliant. The singer’s technique was given its greatest trial In Verdi’s “Pace, Pace (La Forza del Destino.”) She showed in this number that hers is an art well founded on basic fundamentals which are capable of the misty heights as well as the shadowy depths of interpretation.
