with a limit on the number of
players allowed to dress for a
game. as an aid to small squads.
/ On the other hand, one writer
called the present rules "the best
ever" Another proposed: 1.-THE
Rules Committee should not
meet more often than every five
years, but if it does meet. the
rules should remain static for
five years
Two or three writers backed
the suggestion Of allowing side
line coaching along the lines pro-
posed by Minnesota's Murray
Warmath and Boston Univer-
sity's Buff Donelli. They would
allow coaches to talk to their
players at the sidelines during
time-outs as coaches Of other
sports do.
Sucker Shift Proposals
There were a couple of calls
for the elimination of the
sucker shift"-which the COM
mittee found itself unable to dc
last year-and faxed injuries. A
concrete suggestion on the lat.
ter was to stop the clock after
each play during the final min
ute of each half.
Other suggestions:

stead of calling illegal proce-
dure," personal foul" etc.
Penalties should be length
ened to a limit of so yards fol-
certain underhanded plays be.

isiveness and not enough sport.

Bid to Shift PhilIies Revealed
In Campaign for City Stadium

Oficials Of the Philadelphia

BY tie Associated Press

For the past two years. since
IT took the radical step of abol-
ishing the platoon system, the
National Football Rules Com
mittee has made only a few
minor changes in the playing
code of college football. Most Of
them couldn't even be noticed
by the fans.
When it meets next month,
the committee apparently won't
have much more work to do, ac-
Icording TO indications in the an
lnual Associated Press post-sea-
son survey. BY a count of about

broadcasters participating indi-
Gated that there's no marked de-
sire for a change in the 1855
rules.
Out of 149 experts replying to
the AP QUESTIONABLE, IS said
there was no marked agitation
for changes. Twenty gave fiat
Affirmative answers and IA de-
tected some minor moves for
changes. The 20 who left the
space blank presumably can be
added to the mo- total.
Given a chance to make sug-
gestions of their own or to relay
the ideas of others, the writers
and broadcasters came up with
la few proposals which may or
may not be considered by the
rules committee.
Some Want PlatOOns
No. l on the list was a return
to the platoon system. Fourteen
listed that proposal-some mere.
ly as a reflection Of coaches ideas
Others advocated it strongly as
providing the fans with a better
brand of technical football and
giving more players opportunity
for action. Six more suggested
liberalizing the substitution rule
in various ways and two favored
Tightening it.
One Michigan writer noted
The small colleges want a re-
turn to two-platoon. but the rules
committee pays no attention to
