Walsh Arguments Against Pass Rule Change

New York December 25. Waller R. Olivein, head of the football rules committee, will present his annual report to the National Collegiate Athletic Association. He endorses the game as fine and doubts any revision needed for 1937. He opposes a proposed 10 to 15 yard penalty shift for pass interference, arguing it could nearly eliminate the forward pass. The proposed change would tax defenses by punishing long passes, potentially keeping players from attempting them. Olivein notes the rule book states a man is entitled to the ball at the spot where he would have caught it if not interfered with. The issue will be revisited at the annual meeting in February.
