Meeting of Intercollegiate Football Association in Holidays

The Intercollegiate Football Association of the United States will meet December 27 at the Murray Hill Hotel, New York, to consider a possible change in the football rules. Seven of the fourteen members of the rules committee will be appointed at the meeting, and the question of amalgamation with the old football rules committee will be again considered. Pennsylvania and Chicago have joined the new association, and Cornell and Yale are expected to ally themselves with it in the near future. It is expected that among the changes proposed will be the lessening of the value of the goal from the field, and the further restriction of the use of the forward pass.
