|CAME BOON TO
SMALL SCHOOLS
Great Aid to Coaches;
Like Basketball-Saves
Money, Too
BY HARRY GRAYSON
Sports Editor, NEA Service

sports Eu1COr, NEA service
Six-man football rapidly is tax
ing its place as an intramural sport
in colleges and high schools.
It looms as great feeder for var
sity teams improves ball-hand-
ling.
1t enables youngsters unable to
make varsities to get into a game
involving body contact.
It's ideal for schools without
enough boys for 11-men outfits and
sufficient money to sponsor them.
With less bone-crushing pile-ups,
the new streamlined version Of the
pigskin pastime carries out its pur-
pose of lessening risk of injury :.
removes parental objections.
While the sport is conducive to
wide-open play and opportunities
for brilliant broken field running, it
also provides plenty Of vicious
blocking and open field tackling.
Naturally, it is more mobile and
faster than the 11-man style and
leans more to razzle-dazzle stuff.
Indeed, it is marked by frequent
SubstitutionS, for its heightened
pace runs the athletes to a fraz-
zle. 1t Is somewhat reminiscent
of basketball with the center jump
eliminated.

PLOW-HORsE POSTS OUT,
GAME EASIER TO FOLLOW

With only IL players on the prem
ises instead of az, line play and
blocking stand out more. The game
is easier to follow.
The guard and tackle positions
the plow-horse posts, are elimi-
mated; also one halfback, leaving
three men on the line and three In
the backfield. There are innumer-
able offensive formations, but the
defense usually sticks to 2-3-1 set
up.
The field is 20 yards shorter and
40 feet narrower than the one on
which the 11-man type is played
making 1t 80 by 40 yards.
The offense is required to advance
is yards In four downs.
The back receiving the ball di-
rectly from center cannot run with
it. He must pass, but If there is a
reverse play, for instance, the sec
ond man handling it may run. In
fraction of this rule calls for a FIVE
yard penalty or loss of down. Any
player is eligible to receive a pass,
although one set of rules makes the
center ineligible.
A field goal counts four points
and a conversion after touchdown
two if kicked and one If COM
pleted in any other way.

KICKING ENCOURAGED, BUT
PLAYERS PREFER TO RUN

This is to encourage kicking and
remove the danger of injury within
the 20-yard line. A touchdown
counts the same as in the 11-man
game. Goal posts are wider and the
crossbar is lower to further en-
courage kicking.
Teams kick off from the 30-yard
line. On fumbles, the ball may be
advanced by either offensive or de-
fensive players Again like basket
ball, only canvas-topped, rubber
soled shoes are permitted. Some
play in bare feet.
The basketball method Of tim
ing is used. The sidelines and
substitutes report to them. Length
of a game is four 10-minute per-
iodS.
Six-man football makes for high
scoring. Teams frequently elect to
run the extra point indicating
that it is easier to advance the pig
skin on the ground than to kick 1t
between the uprightS even though
the latter are placed advantageous
ly.
A squad of IS is sufficient and the
tennis shoes, for example, mean a
saving over leather cheated ones.
Stephen Epler, an Iowa high
school coach, really hit upon some
thing when he originated six-man
football through necessity three
years ago.
