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.

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
