Eastwood of Los Angeles State College warned the' nation's, football coaches that the platoon system may bring an increase in the fatality rate unless they devise some means of keeping the players warmed up between mass substitutions. This warning was contained in Eastwood's annual report to the convention of the American Football Coaches As sociation; He is chairman of the association's committee- on in juries and fatalities, which has compiled and studied records of football deaths for 21 years; Warmup Necessary The accumulated evidence since 1935 reveals that, injuries and fatalities occuf, more fre-L mJCJi Li buuu aiici ail jiiuimuu- al enters a game or starts a practice period. Dr. Eastwood pointed out. And ith the growth of the platoon system there are more occasions when a player is likely to be sent into a game without an ade quate warmup.

a "Recently, with the free substitution rule and the defensive and offensive platoon system, a reduction of fatalities has not been substantially effected. "Rather, it is becoming more and more apparent that in creased attention needs to be given to adequate warming-up of the player before entering a game, scrimmage or funda mental practice session. 7 Data Disclose 1 "During the last two years there has been a slight indication from the accumulated data that mass substitutions are bringing about an increase dur ing the first five minutes of en tering a game. Coaches' should carefully note this and, accordingly, warm "up their players before sending them into, the game Our accumulated data indicate that the. second and fourth quarters are the most hadardous when specific warmup periods cannot gen erally Jbe practiced." Drv a d's survey showed six deaths due directly to football and four indirect fatalities, just half, the 1951 total.

This was the best record since 1945, when six direct and three indirect fatalities were reported and, except for' that year, the best since the committee has kept records." Five direct and two indirect fatalities -were charged to high school one of each to sandlot -football and one indi rect death to-college football. 1.,. TELEVISION Continued from First Page proved by a two-thirds vote of the NCAA membership before it will go into effect. James M. Lancbs, former chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, ap peared before the convention and spoke on behalf of pay-as- you-see television, Landis said he believes sub scription TV would finance not only football and other athlet-j ic programs but academic pro-! grams as well.

Landis recommended a de vice known as Skiatron which presents scrambled programs that can be unscrambled by TV owners by means of a cod ing system. It includes a punch card to show the amount to be paid by viewers. NCAA Asks for Limit on 'Number of Games WASHINGTON, Jan. 8 (JPh- A special committee of the NCAA tonight recommended a limitation on the number of football and basketball games a college can play. It also sug- gested a rule stating -when practice sessions should start.

The committee's suggestion: No football team to play more than 10 regularly sched-j uied games in a season. Ideally. it said, tne limit should be nine Basketball should be limited to 26 regularly 'scheduled games plus games in Christmas holiday tournaments. The recommendations also would permit teams, to accept football bowl games or invita tions to the NCAA basketball tournament. The recommenda tion was that no fall football practice" should start' before Sept; 1 and that basketball practice should not begin be fore the third full week, in October.

Three teams Washington Green Bay and Dallas failed. of Coaching Carl Snavely, unemployed, president of the American Football Coaches Association, criticized college leaders tonight for making the coach the scapegoat of the game's abuses. i i i anaveiy aiso oepioreu uie m-security of the profession and said jealousies and backbiting had cut down many of the same's top mentors before their prime. In an address prepared for i aenvery ui coacii oi uie year dinner "honoring Michigan State's Clarence (Biggie) Munn, Snavely referred to the continuing fight against overemphasis and professionalism In football. Coach Victim "Too often," he declared, "he (the coach) bar been desig nated as the cause when actually he has been the victim." Snavely added: "He knows more about football problems than, anyone else.

But as a rule he is not consulted and does not part in the reform 'who led 'Michigan state througn an unoeaten sea son to the. mythical national championship, was named coach of the year. He received a plaque presented by Vice-President-elect Richard M. Nixon, who used the occasion to put In a strong plug for postseason bait games. Fireworks Provided It was Snavely, former head coach at North Carolina, however, who provided the- fireworks at the 18th annual coach of-the-year "dinner.

Snavely, himself a onetime coach-of-the-year at Cornell, resigned at North Carolina recently after a disappointing season of two victories, and six defeats. He was offered faculty status at reduced salary but is reported looking for another position! There was a touch of disillusionment his words as the silver haired veteran told the gathering that "no matter how many problems there -may be they all arise from fundamental causes." He listed these as (1) desire to win; (2) desire and demand for profits over and above the amount required for football; (3) attempts by many schools to play out of their class; (4) difference in academic standards and mistrust among the educational institutions. coacnes' rosiuon "Now what is the position of the coach?" Snavely asked. "The answer is brutally simple. His course is dictated by the policies of his college and he is powerless to wield much if any Influence over them.

"He must win his share of the games. And what is his share? Obviously it should be 50. because where there is a winner there has to be a loser. But for the football coach the law of mathematics surrenders to strange computations. Fifty per cent is not enough.

Vice President' elect Nixon said he did not Join with those who apparently feel it is necessary to destroy the whole in order to end a few correctible abuses in college football. He declared he thought there should be uniform entrance examinations and minimum standards for classroom pro grams as recommended by college presidents. Realizes Problems Nixon added that as a fan he would like to see as many games on television as possible 'but he realized that it is a diffi cult problem for the colleges and that "certainly no one wants college football to go into eclipse as college baseball did." On the matter of bowls the Vice-President-elect said these postseason games have become an American institution and he added: "I do not believe there is anything wrong with bowl games which thoughtful supervision can't cure. "A general pattern where the proceeds from the game are distributed among the colleges and conferences represented, as it is now in the case of the Big Ten-Pacific Coast contract, would seem to be most desirable."

Dudley DeGroot, coach at the University of New Mexico, announced the contents of the code which his special com mittee drew up.

Mainly, the rules of deport ment ask that a cdach never criticize a fellow coach, ah of ficial or any of his players in public, alscthat he refrain from picking winners of games. If approved by the coaches association, a coach could be susoended or expelled or a violation of any part of the code. A special five-man committee would be set up to review all cases under provisions of the recommendation. The suggestion to avoid pre dictions would curb the prac tice of several coaches who write newspaper columns and conduct television and radio shows. Prominent among these is Frank Leahy of Notre Dame The ethics committee headed by DeGroot changed the origi nal recommendation to meet a request of the football writers.

Originally the report called for a 15-minute ban on all vis itors, including newsmen, to dressing rooms after games This was changed to read that a coach should not admit vis itors until he has taken care of injured players and made proper preparations.
