OLD-TIME DESCRIPTION OUT OF DATE

SEVERAL DIFFICULTIES IN

INTERPRETING 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 docs 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 importaat point. It is true that they are almost eloquent about certain things which do not constitute a fair chargo, 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.
