Rohde made the scathing state ment in the wake of a 32-B whip ping his football team took at the hands of West Texas Slate Satur day night, when he had trouble! getting a replacement onto the field for an injured man. "The rules are idiotic. They are stupid," said Rohde. "Even some of the coaches who publicly say they like the rules are lying and will admit it privately. "Various officials interpret the rules differently in different sec tions of the country and you find out about it 10 minutes before the game. It favors the big schools who have seven or eight assistant coaches. They can assign one man who docs nothing except keep track of the book work on the substitutions. "I predict that the rules will be tossed out next year. The 'wild card' rule was okay to get injured players out of the game. But the coaches don't trust each other, so it was tossed out. They were afraid their opposing coach would fake an injury lo get a man out of the game and a new one in."

He has lo be a man with a mission to make good with a club that was slaughtered by the Min nesota Vikings, 43-14, on Sunday; had lost all three league games this year; all five exhibition games, plus the final two games of the 1962 season. I have no definite changes in personnel or playing positions at the present time." said Christian sen. "But we have some good men on this squad if we can get them to play up to their poten tial.

However, only time perhaps Takes Over is rated as one of the all-time best secondaiy defensive men in the history of the National League. It was at Detroit that he headed his famous "Chris' Crew" that ate up passes from opposing teams during the mid- fifties. He has been an assistant coach w ith the Forty Niners since 1D59. "I've wanted to he a football coach ever since I was in high school," he said. "I had no idea of playing professional football. In fact, I didn't play at Colorado Slate until after my second year. I just wanted (o learn sports so I could be a coach. Christiansen is retaining the full staff that worked under Hii k cy. Dirk Vons will handle the de fense; Jack ( Moose l Myers the backs and ends; and Bill Johnson the line and defense. All are old er than the new head man. I'll continue to work with the defense, loo, because we arc short one man now." said tlie blond leader. "But I'll expect a lot of help from the older men on the coaching staff."

U he isn't, he will shift Jim Gilliam to third base and put rookie Dick Tracewski, a slick fielder but weak hitter, at sec ond . Alston refused to name a start ing lineup "until I find out if Mc Mullen will play." Houk named this lineup and batting order for the first game: Shortstop Tony Kubek, second baseman Bobby Richardson, left fielder Tom Tresh, Mantle, Mar is, catcher Elston Howard, first baseman Joe iPepitone and Ford. Rich Series Seen Although this will be the eighth World Series meeting between the clubs, it will be the first since the Dodgers left Brooklyn after the 1957 season to find a baseball gold mine in the Far West and Yankee officials pre dicted capacity crowds for the first two games here Wednesday and Thursday. They reported. however, that a few reserved seats had not been sold while about 6,000 bleacher and standing room only tickets will go on sale the day of each game. With standing room, the Yan kees can crowd 72,000 in their park. Add that to the 55,000 ca pacity of Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, and it figures to be the richest series ever for the play ers, who share in the receipts of the first four games Only. The Yankees, who have won 20 out of the 27 previous World Se ries in which they have partici pated, were favored to win this one. ,7(i to S and wiere 6 to 5 choices to win the opening game. The Dodgers have won but two of their previous 10 series, the last one coming in 1959 against the Chicago White Sox.
