Now, York. Dec. 28. -The Intercob
legiate association adopted and sub-
itted to its rules committee tonight, a
resolution oalling for a modification of
the football playing rules whereby the
injuries to contestants may be con-
fined to a minimum.
This is the resolution designed by
Professor E. K. Hall of Dartmouth
and adopted after three hours of
acrimonious discussion:
"That the football rules committee
of this association be instructed to use
every possible endeavor to bring about
such a modification of the rules as in
their judgment will tend to reduce to a
minimum the danger of personal Injury
to player# and at the same time retain
as far as may be possible the most de-
sirable and wholesome features of the
game.”
It was the consensus of opinion to-
night that mass plays, the running
tackle, otherwise known as the flying
tackle; and playing through the line
would be done awv with.

grand vizier.
Hilmi Pasha was appointed grand
vizier by the sultan February 14 of the
present year, and the new cabinet was
constituted then also.
The committee of union and prog-
ress which was the moving spirit in
the overthrow of Sultan Abdul Hamid
has since the change In administration
retained a flrm grip on the govern-
mental machinery and there have been
rumors since the early part of Sep-
tember that the cabinet would resign
or be forced out of omice. More re-
cently the committee demanded the
resignation of the minister of public
works and this demand was compiled
with. There has been much active op-
