Platoon System Will
Dominate Again In ‘49
PALM SFRINGS, Calif., Jan. 14.—(AP) —There won’t
be much difference in the matter of wholesale substitu
tions on and off college foothall fields next fall, but the
game will be a little more ex
.Such were the deductions today
as members of the Intercollegiate
Rules Committee headed home -
ward after another tussle to im
prove the grid regulation book.
.The highly controversial free
substitution rule rated top atten
tion accoridng to William J. Bing
ham of Harvard, the chairman,
this provoked hot debate in closed
door sessions during thé snow
bound four-day session. But
coaches accused of push-button
operations were curtailed in one
respect and given free rein 'in an
other. |
* Less Conifusing (?) |
" “I don’t think changes either‘
liberalized or modified the sub!
rule, but instead made it less con
fusing,” Bingham commented.
Here are the new statutes on
th:bject: ‘
Coaches will not be permitted
to send one player at a time into
the game while the clock is rum
njrgx-a practice that brought on
the push button term. That's out.
~They will be able, when the ball
changes hands, to send in as many
players as desired on either team.
But subs must be in and ready to
play while the clock is running
and before the customary 25-sec
ond period elapses from the time
the referee places the ball in posi
tion.
"Those are new edicts. They can
still send in as many players—
platoons included—while the
clock is stopped. They can still re
place one injured man and op
posing coaches at such junctures
can field as many fresh players as
fancy dictates.
-Encouragement to offense is
contained in these rules:
A player can elect to run back
a-punt from scrimmage if the ball
is eaught in the end zone. This
used to be an automatic touch
back and the ball was placed in
play.on the 20-yard line.
“If a punt receiver gets nailed
in the end zone, back of the goal
line; it still goes as a touchback
and .the ball goes to the 20-yard
line. If he is tackled on the one
yard line, that’s where it goes in
to play.
= .- Pass Behind Goal
Passing behind the goal line was
encouraged. A new rule says if a
-legal forward pass is incomplete
in the offensive team’s end zone,

citing and a little less rough.
it is to be ruled an incompleted
pass instead of a safety, as the
old college ruie stipulated.
An intercepted pass, in or out of
the end zone, or a recovered fum
ble, in or out, naturally goes for a
touchdown for the opposing team,
if a member of that team winds
up with the ball in the end zone.
A new clipping rule describes
clipping as “throwing the body
across the back of an opponent,
other than the runner, below the
waist.” It use to be below the
knees. .
Illegal use of hands, which
often meant slugging and bruised
faces from heavy blows from
clasped hands and forearms, got
action. Players on ‘chest and
shoulder blocks must henceforth
keep their hands in direct contact
with their chest, before, during
and after a blocking execution.

Auburn Opponent At 8:00;
Alabama On Slate Tomorrow
Auburn’s scrappy ’f‘igers, fresh from an upset victory
over Tech’s Yellow Jackets, invade Woodruff Hall to
night 2t o’clock to seek action with Coach Raiph Jor
dan’s Georgia cagers.
Alabama, who dropped the Bull
dogs in their first meeting last
here tomorrow evening, rounding
out the week-end twin-bill.
When the outfit from the
“Loveliest Village” begins its
participation tonight, it will be the
initial meeting the Tigers and
Georgia this season. Auburn won
its first Southeastern Conference
victory the first part of the week
in beating Tech. The Bulldogs
have a 2-1 mark inside the SEC
family, having defeated Mississippi
and Mississippi State, while losing
to Alabama.
Out For Revenge
Georgia will be out for revenge
in the tilt tomorrow evening, try
ing to even matters for the 46-40
licking handed them by the
Crimson Tide just recently. Ala
bama stresses the defense, and
very seldom runs up a high
numerical total, while it’s just the
other way around with the Bull
dogs—they try to outpoint the op~
position.
The big scoring guns for the
Bulldogs—Bob Healey, Joe Jor
dan, and Earl Davis—will be oiled
after a full week’s practice and
ready to put the Georgians back
on the victory track. Healey is
the team’s high-scorer with 159
points, but it's Davis’ scoring
punch of late that has kept the
Red and Black rolling. Slim

Sports Roundup
- BY HUGH FULLERTON, JR. |
NEW YORK, Jan. 14 —(AP) —
ilt"s a long stride (any way you
look at it) from the Harvard Club
to the Swank Saloon where the
boxing writers held their annual
'dinner. . . But in each place you
found an old-timer who found it
more interesting to look ahead
than to look back. . . . At the Har
vard Club it was Hamilton Fish,
All-American tackle of 1908-
1909, who had helped compile a
monumental ‘“history of football
at Harvard.” The book is filled
with reminiscenses and so werge
most of those who were introduc
ling it to the publie, . . . Fish pre
iferred to call it a means of re
cruiting players without going
beyond the NCAA sanity code.
“We think Harvard is the best
college in the world, so why
shouldn’t we try tc get boys to
’go there?” he demanded. “Thir
! teen boys on, the Columbia foot
[ ball squad lkat played Harvard
}last fall came from within 50
| miles of Harvard stadium. I've
'suggested several ways of inter
esting New ggland boys, but
Harvard is too! conservative and
self-satisfied g odo anything.” .. .
lAt the boxing jambolee, 75-year
old dumb Dan Morgan had the
lboys rolling on the floor with
laughter throughout an hour-long
speech accepting the James J.
Walker memorial award. . . It's
impossible to reproduce a Morgan
oration, but his principal theme
west: “Boxing isn’t dead. There’s
more fighting material around
now than ever. Let’s just get out
{and hustle.”
ANOTHER CONTRAST
In a less serious mood, Fish
explained: “There probably is no
one who knows less about football
than my wife. Someone once ask
ed her, “what position did your
husband play at Harvard?” she
thought it over a minutes and ex
claimed, “Oh, I remember now.
He played captain.” . . . Perhaps
the best of Dumb Dan’s yarns
concerned a visit to Jack Johnson
when the former heavyweight
champion was working in a 42nd
Street flea circus. . . . “I asked
him, aren’t you handling any
heavyweights?” Morgan related.
‘Jack just pointed at the fleas and
said, “thery’re better thinkers.’”
SHORTS AND SHELLS
Harrison (Bones) Dillard, the
Olympic sprint champ, is under
taking an extensive speaking tour
in conjunction with his winter
track activities. . . . It’s being
sponsored by Baldwin-Wallace
College, from which he was grad
uated in December. . . . Tony La
velli, Yale’s accordion playing
basketballer, has applied for en
trance at five music schools in as
many basketball association of
America cities. He's planning to
combine post-graduate study with
pro basketball and will sign with
the highest bidder. . .
HE'LL COME TO A BAD END
Joe Sherman reports that the
Florida State Prison farm at Rau
ford held an end-of-season foot
ball banquet for its team — just
like other institutions of higher
learning . . . The prisoner M. C.
cracked: “The only really un
comfortable player on the team
{lhis year was the center — he
ad to play between two guards.”

Carnesville Teams Play
In 6:30 Triple Attraction
BY CURTIS DRISKELL
Three Athens High basketball aggregations take the
floor against Carnesville teams in the local high school
gyvmnasium tonight in a triple attraction that gets under
wav at 6:30. '
The steadily improving Athens
Junior Varsity raises the curtain
on the three-headed slate of games
with a battle with the Carnesville
juniors. The local ‘“Bees” have
copped six decisions so far, while
losing four games, and have al
ways provided a good ball game
for spectators.
The Athens High Trojanettes go
cut for their second win in a row
against Carnesville at 7:30, and
the featured tilt of the night be
tween the boys’ varsities is set
for 8:30. Coach Arnold DeLa-
Perriere’s Trojans played what
was termed their best game of
the season in their last outing,
whipping Gainesville here, 56-40,
and will probably be hard to slow
tonight.
Starting Five
Ted Short, eoffensive-minded
forward who netted 26 points
against Gainesville, will start at
one of the forward positions to
night, teamed with Frederick
Leathers, steady floor man, at the
other. John Marshall will fill cen
ter position and add his height
to the Trojan backboard game.
Guards will be Tommy Lovern, al
ways a valuable man to have on
the court, and Warren Thurmond,
who made his debut at guard last
Tuesday against Gainesville.
Reserves most likely to see ex
tensive 'combat duty include Don
Seagraves, alternate at center and

at Den and Pack meetings. Also
they talked about ways of planning
a year-round Pack program and
how this program could be carried
out effectively.
The leaders attending the round
table for Troop leaders learned
how to teach Scouts Morse Code
in connection with signaling re
quirements. Each leader made a
blinker, and many of the leaders
will use these to instruct their
Scouts in making one or signaling
purposes.
Also they studied a film on the
new Second and First Class ad

BASKETBALL
292 Points
Best Mark
In Scoring
~ NEW YORK, Jan. 14 — (AP)—
For the third time in three weeks
the National College basketball
scoring leadership has changed
hands.
The new owner is Ralph Richter
of the unbeaten Cincinnati Bear
cats. He jumped to the front to
day by 3-100ths of a point over
Vince Boryla of the University of
Denver.
Richter has averaged 21.83
points in six games. Boryla, in
first place a week ago, has an
even 2180 for 10 games. Ernie
Vandeweighe of Colgate, who pac
ed the pack two weeks ago, slipped
to seventh with 204 for nine
games. The figures were compiled
by the National Collegiate Athletic
Bureau and include games through
Jan. 8.
Chester Giermak of William and
Mary is the national leader in to
tal points with 292 in 14 games.
He’s averaged almost nine field
goals in each contest, also the best
record in the nation.
Accurate MacAuley
. Leading in the accuracy depart
ment, just as he has all season, is
Ed Macguley, the St. Louis string
bean. Easy Ed shot 101 times in
his first nine games and made
60 field goals, an average of .594.
Next in line is Tom Laverte of
Seton Hall with a .551 average for
nine games. Chuck Share of
Bowling Green at .528; Larry
Foust of LaSalle at .505, and Bob
Brown of Miami (Ohio) at .504
are the only others who have made
50 per cent or more of their shots.
Bob Cousy of Holy Cross is tops
in the free throw department.
He’s made 24 of 27 for an average
of .889. Bill Schroer of Valparai
so is second with 31 of 35 for .886.
Bill Sharman of Southern Cali
fornia, who had made 19 in a row,
missed two of six during the week
end. He’s fourth nationally with
44 of 52 for .846.
Some of Richter’s closest compe
tition in the national scoring race
comes from his home territory.
