Redskins Cut
Dixie ~ 10
Road Games
BY LEWIS F. ATCHISON
Star Staff Writer

Southern fans who COM
planned about the Redskins
games last year will have only
half as much to grippe about
in 1862. Only half of the clubs
14-game schedule will be tele-
viSed.
Previously, all Redskins games
went South, but now only the
road games will be telecast. The
I TV schedule in Washington
will remain unchanged, all road
games being shown here and
no home games.
The Southern network will
be divided between the Colts,
who were shown on the Ma
tional BroadcaSting Co. net
work last season, and the Red
skins. This year the Columbia
Broadcasting System, which
owns the Redskins TV rights,
bought the entire National
Football League package. WTOP
radio, however, may drop radio
Icoverage this year.
Meanwhile, back at the tepee,
Head Coach Bill McPeak is
concentrating on the site of a
new Eastern training base and
a defensive backfield coach to
replace Tavern Torgeson, who
is moving to Pittsburgh.
McPeak expects to make a
two-day tour of Virginia next
week after contracting several
schools about the possibility
of using their facilities next
summer. Later he expects to
look into a couple of spots in
Maryland.
The long-range plan now is
to spend three weeks in the
East. tuning up for the opening
exhibition game at Los Angeles.
One week, at most, will be
spent in LA, returning to a
home base here and flying out
to succeeding exhibition games
same as during the regular
season.

9 two-year period of rules ex-
pertinent and to seek uniform
world code in conjunction with
the Royal and Ancient Golf
Club of st. Andrews, Britain's S
governing links body.

the USGA has used trial rules
in connection with out-of-
bounds balls, unplayable lies
and provisional balls. Effective
March l, these will be changed
to conform with the old stand
ards from which the Royal and
Ancient never detected.
- The changes are these:
Out Of bounds: The penalty
will be stroke and distance,
(Under the trial rule, local
rules permitted the optional
dropping of a ball within two
clubs lengths of the point
where the ball crossed the
boundary, with a penalty of
one Stroke).
Unplayable lie: The penalty
will be stroke and distance or
a drop behind where the ball
lay. with a 2-stroke penalty

mitted a drop behind or within
two club lengths of the ball
