S C ,?the nation's sixth largest army post / ^ Bulldogi Prepare For Grid So*eon (Coutlpuod from first pa#e) the rulemwkwH last winter. It seems that every year the rulemaker* get into h huddle and despite the question of whether the game's well-being or the player's Hafety demands It, they really go to work und make changqs. Of course the changes thla yeur are not wholly without merit. The new rule \r( an Incompleted fourth dowln puss In the end zone, Is in fact, a very good rule. Thp important changes this year all help the offense. First, a player may, bo substituted as many times as desired and may communicate with bis fellow players at once. 'As you recall it used to be that a player could not return to the game In the bame quarter In which withdrawn and once returned could not communicate with his fellow players until after one play. Secondly the ball may now bo handed forward anywhere behind the line of scrimmage without penalty. It used j to be that a ball could be handled ouly | backward. Thirdly, a tpurth down pass which falls to complete lu the end zone will now be treated like any Incompleted pass and returned to the point of the previous down. It used to bo that such a pass would bo arbltrarlly brought out to the 20 yard line. And fourthly, a punt which is downed by a member of the kicking team in-1 side the 10 yard line now automatically becomes a touchback and Is brought out to the 20* yard line. It used to be dead at the point inside the 10 yard line when touched. There are some other changes but those mentioned are the Important ones. They are not wholly without merit, although some controversy has already developed about the rule on substitutions. In the All Stars-Bears game at Chicago the substitution prolonged the game greatly and In several pro-league games already this season, the ^ame time has gone from 20 minuteB to 40 minutes beyond the average time of games in previous years. The rule on an Incompleted pass into the end zone on fourth down especially has merit. It never did seem entirely right that a team trying such a pass from Its opponents' five yard line. say. should be penalized beyond the loss of the ball. Yet it has been. The opponents have always arbitrarily taken the ball on the i 20. Or it never did seem entirely right that a team trying such a pass from its opponents 35 yard line, say, should gain 15 yards on the failure. Yet, wfth the ball put In play on the 20, It has. The new rule on a ball which is handed forward behind the line of scrimmage?and the emphasis is on the word '"handed"?really only legalizes something which has been hard to call and which officials have frequently winked at. Almost every body has seen some play on_ which the ball has been handed forward behind the line because of faulty timing. The play should have been called. of course, and a penalty imposed, hut it seldom was. It does not have to ho called now. The new rule on punts grounded by the kicking team inside the 1U yard litie was reintroduced largely because of the committee's*^gfeat desire to tinker. The committee believes the rule will encourage punt receivers to handle the hall but that remains to be seen Most of the controversy over the rules so far has revolved aroun^ the free substitution rule which was designed to help those squads with a limited personnel or with one or two stars who constitute the backbone of the team. The critics have said that the new rule would slow up the game, that it would take more and more of the strategy out of the hands of the boys on the field and place it in the hands of the coaches on the bench. And they have pointed rather triumphantly to support their claims to what happened in the all-star game in Chicago last week In which Sid Luckman, the brainB and passing genius of the Bears was In and out of the game so often that be almost became winded running to and from the bench. Luckman was always out when the all-stars had the ball, going over strategy and getting from Halas. He was always in, except In the closing minutes, when the Bears had the ball, directing the play. The lone check on wholesale substitutions lies with the rule governing time outs. It remains the same with a five yard penalty for every time out over three each half except, when an injured hoy Is replaced. All in all, however, despite what the critics are saying, the rule appears to be a good one. At least undermanned squads w lt*h one or two stars will get a break.
