Rules Bring
Hot Words
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI I The
NCAA substitution rules are "stu.
pid and idiotic" and favor the
large schools with big coaching
staffs, says coach John Rohde of
University of Pacific.
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."

SAN FRANCISCO l UPI' -
Youthful Jack Christiansen held
his first workout as head coach
of the San Francisco Forty Nin

could rebuild the fading fortunes
of a club that has lost 10 straight
ball games.
Christiansen, 34-vear-old former
defensive star of the Detroit Li
ons, took over the fortunes of the
San Francisco club late Monday
after Red Hickey resigned.
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. I feci we should be able to
win our share of the games."
A few minutes after Christian
sen held his first press confer
ence, wherein ne wondered arjoui
the quarterback situation where
John Brodie has a sore throwing
arm, who should walk into camp
but the veteran Lamar McHan.
McHan was obtained from the
Baltimore Colts on waivers last
week, but was slow in reporting.
He'll be insurance for us in
case Brodie s arm continues 10

"Against the Detroit Lions this
week we'll use Brodie if he. can
go. If he can't, we'll try with
Bobby Waters. It will take ai

plays."

Although this will be the eighth
World Series meeting between
the clubs, it will be the first
since the Dodgers left Brooklyn

first two games here Wednesday

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.
