CHANGES IN RULES, FOOTBALL By WILL GRIMSLEY NEW YORK, N 10—(»—Col~ lege coaches not only like the new football rule restric elbow | blocking but most of them want it ;m( re rigidly enforced. | “If there’s any hollering about the increase in penalties the coaches brought it on themselvy=." said Lou Little of Columbia, chair- | man of the Coaches Rules Commit- | tee, today. “They were all for it.” | “In fact, we sent letters to the ‘valious conference commissioners | requesting strict enforcement. We feel it's a fine rule and will cut down rough play and injuries.” The rule stipulates that when an offensive player uses a hand or forearm in tlocking the hand must stay in contact with the body. Once the blocker could lock his hands and flail away, rooster fash- icn. The locked hands wers barred last year and the regulations changed to say the hands should stay “near” the body. Now there must be contact all jthe way. If the hand slips and it is detected, it's a 15-yard® penaity. A cross-country sampling of coaches’ opinion by the Associated Press today showed almoest every- Lody for the rule and a shortage of complaints. “I think tke rule is perfectly all right,” commented Minnesota’s Ber- nie Bierman. Lynn Waldord of California’s Bears said the boys on the west coast have had no trouble with it “I think it's a good rule and has been administered fairly by the officials here,” he said.
