(JF) The platoon system may account for the high scoring In football this season by making the de fense lax, Coach Eddie Anderson of Iowa believes. Noting that the free substitu tion rule, which has brought about the two-unit system, was running games 15 to 25 minutes longer than usual, Anderson is in favor of the old substitution provision. He said yesterday that he sus pected some defensive players feel slighted when all the glory goes to tne oilenslve unit. "Maybe they don't try. to look too good defensively," he sug-' gested. Anderson said Minnesota quite conceivably could beat Notre Dame "on a real, good day."
