Accepting the recommendation of the Football Coaches associa tion the committee eliminated the controversial four-minute rule segment at the end of each half and ruled that the players who start each quarter of a game will be eligible to leave and re enter once during that quarter. Although this is a step in the other direction from the two year old change that outlawed two-platoon football, the com mittee and coaches had no in clination to return to platoon football. The idea was to nbolish the four-minute rule, which some coaches felt made football a six period game, and give coaches and doctors a chance to examine players without losing them for an entire quarter. Hollywood Proxy Rehires Manager HOLLYWOOD (AP)— Bobby Bragan, two-year manager, has been rehired by the Hollywood Stars of the Pacific Coast league. President Robert H.
