OOTBALL rulemakers don’t have to play, so if they want to get gay with the forward pass regulation on interference there is no way to stop them. ... The players will take the beating. . . . The gridiron chiefs have added another supplemental note to an already complicated rule, which reads: ‘Defensive players have as much right to the ball as the eligible opponents, and bodily contact, however severe, between players who are making a ‘bona fide’ attempt to catch or bat the ball shall not be construed as interference.” Now the whole thing looks overwritten and places a heavier burden on game officials. . . . Moreover, it increases the possibility of injury. . .. Formerly the defensive player has had to avoid contact with the offensive gridder, but now he is free to shove him around. " » ” o HE majority of injuries in football, other than those incurred by lack of condition, occur when a player is oft balance and off guard. ... When a football warrior is galloping down the turf for a pass, he is concentrating on catching the ball, thrown to time with his run, and he is bending every effort to make his: turn at the right spot. . «+ A sudden jolt from another player who is making a “hona fide” effort to bat the pigskin down is likely to result
