RULE CHANGES Joker Is Wild In LOS ANGELES (AP) College football in 1969 will have the card" player to follow the famous "lonesome end" of 19M. The "wild card" player will be a substitute who can re-enter a game as many times as his coach chooses, provided he goes in when key the game clock is stopped. Tie player could be a quarterback, a kicking specialist or perhaps a guard carrying instructions from the sidelines. As a result of rules changes, game should be more wide open, higher scoring and crowd-pless- mg. Such was the hope today of the men who write and rewrite the rule book, the National Collegiate Rules Committee.

Their major changes, announced yesterday aft- er three-day meeting: 1. Relaxation of the substitution rule. 1. Widening the goal posts--for the first time in the history of the game--from the present inside- the-post distance of 18 feet 6 inches to 23 feet 4 inches, or the outside distance of 19-2 to 24. The posts remain 10 yards back of the goal line.

3. Revisions of penalties, including infractions on tries for the extra point. Unchanged was the two-point conversion rule. Acting chairman H. 0.

(Fritz) Crisler, serving as head of the committee for the 10th year, said there was considerable sentiment against a return to the two-platoon system. Pan-American Loop Ready to Play Ball He explained the! "wild card" player, as in poker this way: "If only one eligible substitute enters the field while the clock is stopped, will -not be recorded as an entry except during an excess time out, such as when a player is hurt. "However, if more than one substitute enters the field between downs, each sub will be recorded. "Basically, we are keeping the rule of last year. But it will allow a team to get a man into the game when the clock is dead." The, clock is officially dead on many occasions during a game, such as on an incomplete pass or a ball thrown or carried out of bounds.

Under present rules, player cannot re-enter a game more than twice during a half without a penalty. Safety was a main factor in keeping the goal posts where they are, Crisler continued. And the use of goose-neck or cantilever style posts was ruled out as too expen. sive, particularly for small col ATIONAL TO BOX HERE The pride of San Angelo, feather- Ray Salazar, will be in Abilene's regional Golden Gloves tournament, opening here Friday night.
