One OF the busiest men in
Washington this week is a man
without a business. Carl Grey
Snavely, recently deposed foot
ball coach at North Carolina.
The 58-year-old veteran of 26
seasons as head coach at Buck
nell. Cornell and Carolina is
president of the American Foot
ball Coaches Association, an
outfit with a schedule almost as
full as the NCAA's.
Snavely relaxed IN his room
last night after day-long sessions
with his Executive Committee
and the Football Hall of Fame
and acted very unlike a man
about to give up coaching.
Reviews Issues.
He made it plain that he is
more concerned at the present
with the future of football than
with his personal problems as he
reviewed the issues now before
the coaches.
Snavely has been close to dis
cussions of rules changes and
he has no idea that any action
will be taken on the sucker
shift"
TITS an enforcement matter

be very surprised if the coaches
do anything about it.
OF course, he favors bowls
after having taken the Tar
Heels to the Cotton Bowl and
twice to the Sugar Bowl. He
believes the major problem is
personal reward to the players
for the extra practice and the
Christmas holidays away from
home.
Snavely never has heard of a
sound reason why bowls should
be outlawed. His theory is that
if the players can be kept happy.
those opposed to bowls will have
lost their case.
FavOrs TelevisiOn Controls.

Snavely is in favor of controls.

found that protects the small

SnoveIy, Far From Through,
Sees No Ban on Sucker Shift

OF the proposed code of ethics
for football coaches, he feels
there must be punishment for
coaches who fail to observe good
craftsmanship and do not use
discretion. For wanton disre-
gard of injury to opposing play
ers by sending a team out to
"get" the opposition's star play
er, Snavely hopes there will be
punishment that will leave a
coach in permanent disgrace.
Some Embarrassment Ahead.
Snavely shows not the slight
est embarrassment over his role
as unemployed president of the
college coaches. But in glancing
over the coaches program at the
Statler for the next few days, he
agreed there will be some en-
barrassing moments.
For instance. Floyd Schwartz
walder, whose Syracuse team
took a 61-6 lacing from Alabama
in the Orange Bowl last week,
has a lecture tomorrow morning
on offensive Football as Syra-
cuse Plays It."
Snavely is bitter about the
treatment he received at Chapel
Hill and makes no attempt to
hide it. He likes the town, some
of the people and hates to leave
an ideal home, but Chapel Hill is
too small a town to hold Snavely
and the people he believes were
out to get him-and did.
: His last three seasons were
three of the four poorest in his
coaching career, and Snavely
doesn't believe he alone was to
blame. Somebody saw to it that
the schedule was overloaded, and
then blocked means of getting
the players to meet that sched-
ule.
Two Consultations.
4AAC AAAoA41AAAAS CA>COdCl1 VI t1lC
Tar Heels has had two major
consultations since losing his job.
One was the volume of Christ
mas mail-the heaviest he ever
has received. The other is the
reception he has received in his
short stay in Washington.
In seven seasons at Bucknell,
nine at Cornell and 10 at North
Carolina, Snavely's teams won
lat games. lost IT and tied Is.
He had two undefeated seasons
and took Carolina to three ma
jor bowls. The soft-spoken
mentor doesn't know where the
trail heads except that it will be
out Of North Carolina but still
into football, he hopes.

Playing upon the natural bent

entertainment. All of the ages

televiSion'S latest excursion in the
inducement of nostalgia. The
good old days it conjures up are
those Of the year 1919. The set
ting is the small store. with liv-
ing quarters in the rear, of an
Irish family in Ludlow, KY. just
across the Ohio River from Gin

John Acton is the grandfather,
Kevin Acton the grandson
through whose eyes the stories
are seen. The other principal
characters are Johns brother,
Uncle Terence, and Kevin' S
mother, Julia.
In the opening episode the
family affairs were complicated
by the fact that Uncle Terence
was a better genial Irishman
than a business man. He had
the stores books in such shape
that John couldn't tell whether
there was a profit or a loss. A
profit was necessary because his
salary as county clerk wouldn't
pay all of the family's bills.
To straighten all this out,
Uncle Terence came by a cash
register in a far-fetched buSi-
ness deal. Then he drew down
the ire of all by locking money.
the books and some valued
family trinkets in a drawer he
couldn't unlock.
There was nothing exciting or
over-dramatic about any of this,
but Martha WilkerSon wrote
charm, humor and plauSibility
into the script for Producer Ed
ward A. Byron. It was well
played by Harry Holcombe

There Is one criticism which
might be passed along to Director
Penn. In using the subjective
camera technique, you have to
give up all that camera switch
ing from long shot to closeup
and back to long shot. The effect
this technique strives for Is to
make the viewer q part of the
drama by letting him see it as
II he were standing where the
camera is. You can move q cam
era in or out, but when you
switch one to another in mid

the eye can't do. You've lost
the subjective technique and
maybe the viewer.
