State Legislature Asked
To Gust Nebraska Coach
BY the Assoelo,ed Press

LINCOLN, Nebr. Jan. 1.-THE
Omaha delegation in the Nebras-
ka State Legislature yesterday
received a petition asking the
removal of Bill Glassford as Uni
versity of Nebraska football
coach.
Senator George Syas of
Omaha commented: II think it's
just reflection of the disgust
created by Nebraska's showing in
the Orange Bowl" He said he
didn't think the 100 signers were
serious about having the Legisla-
ture take action to Dust Glass
ford.
Indications we're that none of
the Omaha legislators would
make a proposal in connection
with the Cornhusker football
situation.
Nebraska was beaten. 34-7, by
Duke in the New Years Day

Vote Slated Today
ion Proposed Change
lin Football Rules
o. the ,eiaisd Press

NEW YORK, Jan. l2.-Three
rules proposals were under con-
sideration today by a subcom-
mittee Of the MEGA Football
Rules Committee. The proposed
changes conferred around how
much the movement Of linemen
can be restricted without inter-
fering with modern offensive
football.
Yesterdays committee discus
sion involved:
/. The false start and sucker
shift"
2. The movement Of linemen
into the backfield to protect the
kicker on spread formations.
3. The tackle eligible" for
ward pass formation.
Committee Chairman H. o.
(Fritz) Crisler Of Michigan re-
ferred the proposals Of the main
body to the subcommittee,
whose job it is to clarity the new
rules in such q way that they
viii not conflict with the current
rules.
The subcommittee are due to
make their reports and the COM
mittees will vote on the proposals
today.
The chairman indicated that
some overall changes In the rules
could be expected. However.
Crisler added, II don't think
well have any fundamental
changes, such as the unlimited
substitution rule"
Most of the discussion was de-
voted to false starts and whether
they can be abolished without
damaging the modern varied Of
lenses and hurting the game.
I'VE could say a lineman can't
move. but that would do away
with the shift entirely" Crisler
said. There is some belief on
the committee that the present
language covers the situation.
The difficulty is that when a
play Is outside the spirit Of the
rule, the officials have trouble
administering the rule"

Girl Thought Carried off By Bears Found Unhurt
 After P Hours in Forest

LIBBY, Mont, RAFound un- harmed in a wooden hollow, little Ida Mae Curtis bounded to her fathers arms with a cheerful Hi, Daddy" late yesterday after she was lost for g hours in rugged mountain area south of here.
 Searchers found the two-year- old girl only 300 yards from where she disappeared Sunday evening.
 Fearful his daughter might have been carried from their tent by one of several bears seen in the vicinity, Mortimer Curtis, the child's father, broke down and cried upon embracing her.
 Mrs. Curtis, mother of seven, had said she saw two bears near the camp where Curtis works as a logger shortly after Ida Mae vanished at dusk Sunday.
 The yOungster was taken to a hospital, where a doctor said she was in perfect condition.
 Ida Mae was wearing only a thin shirt, shorts and shoes, but seemed undisturbed at spending a chilly night and most of the day alone in the Kootenai National Forest.

Two More Years Needed to Finish Radar Defenses

OTTAWA, Ont, RAConstruc- tion of two radar warning lines across Canada is really rolling,' ? officials say. But it. probably will take two years more to complete them.
 Each of the warning systems will be nearly 5000 miles long. The DEW Distant Early Warn ing) line runs roughly along Can ada's arctic coast. It's costing $250 millions of US. money. The mid Canada line, along the 55th Paral- Tel, is costing $170 million of Canadian funds. The US. and Canadian governments are coop erating to bring the projects into being.
 Equipment moves in by both air and sea. Last winter 4,000 flights carried 10000 tons of equipment to the DEW line, and now the flights are increasing with better weather. Twenty-ton tractors and heavy earth moving equipment have been taken north in US. C-124S. Commercial carriers also are helping; they get $8,000 for carrying five tons of cargo 1000 miles to the site of DEW line station.
 Some of the larger stations will peed 1000 tons of diesel fuel year. That indicates the size of the job of maintaining the stations once they're built
 Though purely military, the sta tionS may provide information for development of mining or other industries in the north.
