OLD-TIME DESCRIPTION OUT OF DATE

SEVERAL DIFFICULTIES IN INTERPRET ING LAW 9

(By "Roker Park")

"Referees must allow a fair charge." So says the Referees' Chart, using thick black type to emphasize the point. Unfortun- ately, however, no where in this well-known little publication doca one find any description or definition of what constitutes the said fair charge. Both the actual text of the laws of the game and the official decisions and instructions based on it are silent on this important point. It is true that they are almost cloquent about certain things which do not constitute a fair charge, but this covers only part of the ground. Having nothing else to go on, however, we must examine these carefully so that we can find what we seek by a process of elimination.

The portions of Law & which relate, dangerous" says Law 9. But surely a to charging read as follows:-"Neither certain element of violence is essential tripping, kicking, striking, nor fumpto every charge. Otherwise how can ing, at a player shall be allowed.
