From The Sidelines
htoon System Out,
Grid Game Shaken Up
Glenn Nelson
The two-platoon system, which has for 12 years entirely
changed the game of football, met its death Thursday when the
NCAA football rules committee killed the free substitution rule by
a unanimous vote.
In Its place, the rules committee established a new Yule which
will not allow players to be taken from action
during the first and third period and returned
to the rme In those periods. Players with
drawn before the final four minutes of the
second and fourth quarters nay return during
those last four minutes.
The football iron men of years ago. who
were forced to play an all-around game as both
offensive and defensive 'performers, must return
to the fold. Probably the outstanding cause of
the radical measure taken by the committee Is
the fact that 50 smaller colleges were forced to
disband their grid schedules for lack of effective
two-platoon set-ups with which to oppose their
lareer rivals.
Football Plans Changed
Several years of planning and training men for specialized po
sitions by grid coaches will definitely be shaken up. The game it
self next season will be greatly changed, with fewer players seeing
action. This sudden change which has been thrown into the present
set-up Will definitely hinder the outlook of a great many football
powers which depended heavily upon the two-platoon system for
their strength.
The game itself is bound to "be improved in , several ways,
however. The 'smaller colleges will be plven a break which en
ables them to comnete more favorably against lareer schools. A

IMU's Outlook Dampened?
The big question of local Value at present is, "How is this
Change of ruling going to effect Nebraska's outlook for next fall?"
Husker backfleld coach Bob Davis, himself a two-way player
during his college football career, commented Friday that he has
"always been in favor of playing men both ways." Davis stated
that he is "definitely in favor of the new ruling, and feels that
Nebraska will have many players who can easily switch Into the
new system'
Coach Davis singled out a number of NU gridders Who have
gone both ways for Nebraska, and said that especially backfield
men will be in a position to jump into the new set-up.
Backs John Bordogna, George Cifra, Bob Smith, Dennis Kori
nek, Kay Novak, Bill Thayer, Jim Cederdahl, Duane Rankin,
George Gohde and Jim Yeisley were among the backs Davis
singled out as talented both offensively and defensively. Line
men Jerry Minnick, Jim Oliver and Bill Schabacker along With a
host of other forward wall Buskers have been groomed for iron
man roles, and could fit Into the new system with little work.
Head football coach Bill Glassford was out of town and un
vailabls for comment.

Husker Quintet AAus
Stop Diercks To Win
ness the key to the Iowa State of
fensive attack, Delmar Diercks.
The big 6-foot, 9-inch senior
center, was tabbed as "athlete of
the week" for the second straight
week by the 630 Club of Ames,
Iowa.
Diercks won the nomination
for his performances against
Missouri and Kansas last week.
The thin pivot ounted 17
points against Missouri and 24
against Kansas as the Cyclones
dropped both contests. He now
leads the Cyclone squad In
scoring with a total of 154
points in nine games.
As far as Coach Harry Good's
quintet is concerned, Saturday's
game against Iowa atate is sun
a question. The answer lies in the
condition of his two ailing for
wards, Don "Weber and "Willard
Fagler.
After being "bedded with virus
Wednesday, Weber returned to
classes Thursday and hopea tnat
he would be ready to go at lull
speed against the Cyclones. On
the other hand, Fagler still is in
the grips of the Infection and is a
doubtful starter.
However, the sudden resurg
ence of Forward Paul Fred-
strom, gives Good a top-flight
replacement 4f either Weber or
Fagler are not ready to go.
Fredstrom led the team In points
In the Busker's 63-59 loss to :
Kansas, Monday, by slipping
14 points through the noop. He
also played a top rebounding i
game. '
"They're an unpredictable out
fit," Coach Good had to say about
the inconsistent Cyclones. "We've
gotten the job done on our liome
court in the last few years. If
they're hot we'll have to go out
and get them; if they're cold we
won't ave too much to worry
about."
The Husker wach "plans to use
Kappa Sigma since the last rat
ings. Sigma Clii split a "pair of ccm-,
tests while falling three "notches.
The Sigs "Outfought Phi Gamma
Delta after losing their first of
the year to Sigma Phi Epsilon,:
last year's runnerup, by a 81-26
tally. ;
The Sig Eps enter the ratings
this Weekk along with four other
outfits and Immediately find
themselves in the Tiumber three

the Phi 3ams and Delts to make

acquired wins . on their perfect
record. The Pansies walloped the
Comets, Robbers nd Cadavers

ing their sdrive for All-U honors.
The Ramblers make five-
place jump this week and land
In fifth with a pair of wins over
rugged Rockets and Phalanx.
The latter were fifth in the last
rankings.
Alpha Tau Omega won three
straight contests over the last two
weeks but drop from third to
sixth to make room for the climb
ing outfits. The Taus disposed
of the Sig Alphs, Delts and Sigma
Nu since the last report.
The last four berths of the top-
ten are occupied by newcomers

the vPeeji Fijis garnered n addi
