Coaches Think Football Okeh Few Minor Changes Asked in Rules; Equipment, Study Proposed By EARL HILLIGAN CHICAGO, Dec 2S-Cf?V-Inter- collegiate football, the nation's gridiron coaches decided today, is humming along smoothly and doesn't need any general over hauling. A meeting of the National Foot ball Coaches association's rules committee failed to produce a sin gle recommendation for a major change in the sport's regulations. Lou Little, Colombia mentor and rules committee chairman. summed it up whea he said: "We feel the game generally Is satis factory. Defense and offense are fairly well equalized and what we are after now is a period of sta bilizatlon one in which little technical changes may be made to advantage but which will not con fuse either spectators, players or coaches." Several minor proposals will be made to the National Collegiate Athletic association rules com mittee which meets next Monday at Colorado Springs, Colo. This rules body, with power to legislate gridiron regulations, will he ask ed to rule that a forward pass touched by an ineligible receiver on or behind the line of scrim mage carry a penalty of 15 yards from the previous down, together with loss of the down. Held Too Severe Under the present rnles. if the forward pass hits an Ineligible player, the bail goes to the oppon ent at the spot of the previous down. This change was recom mended to permit more shovel passes without the severe penalty of loss of the ball. The mentors also recommended that in the case of a forward pass, all ineligible men must remain on the line of scrimmage until the pass is touched, or is incomplete, with the penalty for violation to be 15 yards from the spot of the preceding down and the play to be counted as a down. The coaches recommended that equipment be studied to reduce injuries, several mentors report ing injuries suffered from shoe cleats made of material too brittle.
