Moreover, it gives the line men something to do besides tackling and opening holes, and has a strong moral effect on the defense. The forward pass I also think is necessary to the game in some form, although it should be modified in some way. Mr. Dalv and myself advocated limitation in last year's conference, to eliminate the wild scramble for the ball on the high passes, but without success. This year the movement seems to have gained...
