(UP) The new and smaller football which was adopted by the football rule makers for use beginning this season has been tested by Stanford university ana round to be lacking. When tho ball was mode smaller and thinner, the rules committee had hoped that forward passers with small hands would be able to heave It with more accuracy. At the same time it was believed tho change would not affect players with normal-sized hands, or make it harder to kick or pass ths new ball. Stanford, In Its spring training sea son that ended at Palo Alto recently, tried out the new ball for ten days w.v.n, bunv ,at nn til. VM- ! dlnals are concerned the old ball Is oetier Claude E. ("Tiny") Thornhlll, Stan ford coach, lists the following points against the new ball. 1. Spiral punts cannot be kicked with It. 2, Spiral passes cannot be thrown effectively. a. It bounces crazny when It hits the ground. 4. It can be gripped better, but not thrown as well as the old ball because the players can't seem to control It. 6. It slips through the hands of pass receivers because It Is thinner. Stanford received its shipment of the new pigskins some ten days be fore its spring training ended and was believed to have been the first college In the country to have tried them out. After trying ont the ball, Thornhlll and his players were convinced that It would take some heavy practice next fall to reach the stage of ac curacy that had been achieved with the old and larger ball. A good example of the trouble Stanford encountered was well Illus trated during a day's practice. Bobby Grayson, Stanford's poten tial all-American fulback, a smart passer, heaved balls all over the lot one afternoon, but only twice suc ceeded In completing his passes, once to Jim Moscrlp and again to Johnny Relsner. Frank Alustlza, a star punter, was unable to get much distance with the new ball, while Stan Anderson, who has quick-kicked as much as 74 ysrds with the old oval, had diffi culty In getting the new one off his toe.
