More Protection in 'High School Football Sought CHICAGO, Jan. 10. .P Ways and means of providing additional protection for prep football players-were under consideration to day as the rules committee of the National Federation of High School Athletic associations mot (or its annual two-day session. It was likely, Bald Henry V. Porter of Chicago, secretary of the committee, that the Intermis sion time between periods would be lengthened. The traditional one minute rest between the first and second, and third and fourth sessions was expected to be In creased to two or three minutes, and the 12 minutes between halves boosted to 16. Porter said statistics indicate that most of the serious injuries of prep gridirons occur near the start of the second half. Feeling that lack of proper warming up may be partly responsible, coaches, in answers to question naires, have suggested an extra three minutes between halves, de voted to limbering exercises. The rule prohibiting roughing, or tackling a ball carrier after be has gone out of bounds, was due for strengthening. Porter said officials in the 14 states which have adopted the national federation code would be told to enforce strictly the antl-roughlng rule. , ' While no drastic changes in the rules were planned, question naire responses indicated that the forward passing regulations needed clarification. National federation rules permit raising from anywhere behind the line of scrimmage, and some difficulty with tosses from beyond the line has been encountered. O S. C.
