Chicago Tribune sponsor Arch Ward announced that the all American college football team will play under the college forward pass rule at Soldier Field on August 31. The Bears favored the pro rule but coaches agreed the college format better suits the players. The change keeps goal posts on the goal line and adjusts the college dead ball rule to allow a ball carrier who falls to get up and continue.
