Injuries all of flag fo By TEDDY HEFFNER Sports Writer f Injuries--that nightmare which plagues all football teams--have forced most southeastern universities to give up the game of flag football as we at USC know it. "We at the Intramural Depart ment feel the game other schools play is rather farfetched," ' said Doug Fisher of the Intramural Department. "At other schools the offensive linemen can only screen, like in basketball. No blocking is I allowed. "Defensive men must go around, preventing heavy body contact. Our boys are in favor of our game since it resembles regulation football." The feelings expressed above parallel those of most flag football players. Football is won in the line. When the line is not allowed to block then you no longer have football, but an inferior substitute. Fred Piercy graduated from Wake Forest. While doing graduate work at USC he is an assistant in the Intramural Department. At Wake Forest the wide open game is used, every man a pass receiver. Piercy believes past injuries bill H One North Carolina newspape has attacked Atlantic Coast C< dismally dull and so boring tha in division formation.

"The University will have to face he problem because a problem !xists and must eventually be dealt vith," said Piercy. "The wide open Fame has worked real well at other chools but I don't believe the USC tudent body would accept it." The Intramural Department has oassed rules to combat the in uries. An offensive blocker cannot eave his feet, eliminating the leadly body-block. No spiked hoes can be worn and no one is illowed to play without shoes, irotecting the feet. However, Fisher feels that in juries occur on plays which "aren't illegal." He feels that injuries are part of football. They will remain a part as long as the game is played. There is no way to avoid them. We have the roughest game in the Southeast. Therefore, we must lave the toughest boys in the Southeast. This is a plus for our school. So, if you get hurt playing flag football hustle down to the infirmary, get the injury treated, and come back For the second half. :urrie ISUTH I the OUTH ar, The Charlotte Observer, >nference football as being t the fans are staying away hr, The Greensboro Daily five-part series on what's ill not be a complimentary nt of art always say they d ignorance of football, but ie kind that explodes and e on the field.
