Big Ten Coaches Laud New Rules TRIUMVIRATE SET PACE IN NATIONAL LEAGUE FIELDING Earl Grace, Rabbit Maranville and* Wally Berger Blazed Trail . ‘New York, Dec. 28.—()—Earl Grace, Pittsburgh's clever young catcher who hit at a .275 clip last season and field- ed even better than he batted, Walter “Rabbit” Maranville, the 39-year-old “mighty mite” of Boston's infield, and his husky teammate, Wally Berger, outfielder, formed a big three of in- dividual fielding performers in the National League for the 1932 season. Grace, the leading catcher of the Icircuit, set two new records for re- ceivers. He ran a string of games ,irom Aug. 29, 1931, to Sept. 8, 1932, without an error, handling 444 chances perfectly before he made his first misplay of the season. That was| his only error of the year in 114 games TO K ‘SIMPLIFICATION OF GRIDIRON SPORT IS GROWING NECESSITY Cornell Mentor Says Involved Rules Keep Youths At Work All Season HITS COMPLICATED RULES Declares All Game Needs Is Few Fundamental Plays Enabl- ing Deception New York, Dec. 28—(?)—Football, says Gilmour Dobie, “seems to have outgrown the capacity of the boys to keep pace with it,” and it’s time, he thinks, that something be done to simplify it. “It has all arrived at the stage now,” Cornell's veteran head coach told the American Football Coaches’ association, “where we have a game on our hangs so big, so vast, so un- wieldy, it is almost impossible for an organization of college boys to han- dle it and do justice to their scholas- tic duties. “We cannot go on expanding in- definitely. It is not the quality of the game but the quantity that is undesirable. It consumes too much time and effort and is too expensive. We can junk half of it and still have more left than is sufficient for a college game.” ‘Traces Development Dobie traced the development of the game from its origin when a few simple formations were all that need- ed to be learned, to its present status as a complex sport in which “highly specialized men are required to make @ modern offense or defense function properly. “Why, it’s almost a full season's job for the players to learn the rules well,” he told his associates. Placing the blame for football’s complications squarely on the rules, which he said gave too much lati- tude to the offense, Dobie went on: “Why do we need the lateral pass, the shift, the revolving huddle, spread tions? They have become largely ob- solete anyway by non-usage. They are merely there to plague one. These and a lot of other intricacies could be dispensed with.

A., suc- ceeding the late Edward K. Hall. Langford has been secretary of the committee for a number of years, working closely with Hall in such vital tasks as the recodification of the grid- iron rules. He went to Trinity college at Hartford, Conn., and formerly ranked among the leading eastern of- ficials. Some members of the American Football Coaches’ association, now in annual session, already have endorsed Langford for the chairmanship of the rules committee. His selection is un- derstood also to have the backing of the present membership of the rules organization, representing the entire country. It may bé decided upon at the opening session of executives of the National Collegiate A. A., Thurs- day. Okeson For Secretary If Langford is elevated to the chair- manship, the post of secretary may go to Walter R. Okeson of Bethlehem, Pa., now serving as commissioner of the Eastern Intercollegiate associa- tion. Okeson’s chief responsibilities concern the selection of football of- ficials, a job which requires intimate knowledge of the rules and their ap- plication. Meanwhile the Coaches’ association had before it for decision Wednesday formations and half-spread forma-/ the matter of their working relation- ship with the national football rules committee. For the last several years an advisory committee of coaches, named by the association, has sat with the rules body but has had no actual vote in the proceedings. Even if the coaches could obtain voting privileges from the N. C. A. A., which so far has opposed such recog- nition, it appeared doubtful whether a majority desired it. “The important thing,” according to Lou Little, of Columbia, who gave an elaborate report on the subject to the coaches’ convention,” “is not whether the coaches get a voting membership on the committee but that they present their majority views more clearly and effectively.” Report Each Year Little recommended that a commit- tee of coaches study the various rec- ommendations arising in their annual meeting, obtain the majority views and draft a definite report for the benefit of the rules committee each year. He told his associates that the present advisory arrangement gave them all the voice they needed, other- wise, on the basis of his own exper!- ence.
