I am afraid, however, that this does not meet the ease. Spectators, even after several sensons, do pot ap- preciate the differences, but yell "all onside!" when the ball touches an opponent, however accidentally.

LOGICAL INTERPRETATION Referees for the most part have not the courage to resist such shouts, and one often sees players allowed to proceed when they should have been stopped.

offside from, an opponent's pass.

Then again, when the ball is pass- ed forward the player receiving the pass is in an offside position; and in Australia and New Zealand the offence is treated as such and a penalty kick awarded, instead of, as here, a serum being ordered.

I believe the differentiation there is that when the ball is passed for- ward to a player on the run it is deemed forward pass, but when the player is standing in an offside position and the ball is passed for- ward to him he is regarded as off- side, and a penalty kick is ordered.

D

To my mind, this is n logical Inter- pretation, yet i recall that when the Australians were here in 1929-30 and one of our referees penalised them in Gueli circumstances they raised storm

of protest, and the Rugby League Council gave an oficial ruling that the decision of the referce in such circumstances should have been " scrum.".

The American football season is now under way, and here we see one of the novel methods they am- play for training. This drill is designed to strengthen leg muscles and to improve balance.

The offside ruic undoubtedly needs Lawn Bowls Season. To

complete overhaul." At present the rules make it much too profitable for a player who fles offside most of the game waiting to snup up an une portunity arising out of the mistakes of an opponeni,

I think we should insert a clause to the effect that an offside player must immediately take steps to put himself onside,

This would prevent the growing practice of forwards lying within five yards of an opponent waiting for the hall, and not moving at all. Such players are rarely penalised, though, in my opinion, they should be, he enuse their very presence in that position is calculated to obstruct or unnerve the opponent waiting to take

the bill.
