Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, April 2 I don’t suppose a piece on football is entirely inappropriate in April. At a ny rate, I read that 300 men are o’Jt for spring practice at Notre Oame, and that squads of varying Proportions elsewhere are running through formations under a warming sun as well as critical eyes of coaches. n^h. n ki M L' °* or * Forster Sanford. bal?as anv b m, kn ?

On this subiect thli ,om o i. caustic and suggests iin . uSS, £ el person ought to hold iiien?her. k I nB Kla *f so hat committee members may see how ridiculous they look. a a a TV/fR. SANFORD is particularly i-TX vehement in hLs opposition to two of the new rules which are being put to test in the current spring workouts— <1) the rule which compels the tackier to have one foot on the ground and (2) the rule restricting the use of hands on defense. Characterizing these rules as “gross blunders in judgment,” he maintains they will tend to increase rather than decrease injuries. By wav of explaining the wide variance oi opinion existing between the rules as a * e all d his theories Mr. Sanford says in ‘bat only men who have played ln the line should be entrusted with the prob;lT S ‘i* * name. It is his claim that through the nature of their plav they are able to get a sounder grasp of the fundamentals As an added Indictment he deplores the presence of so many lormcr halt backs on the present committee. Mr Sanford petitions the committee to submit Its revised rules to a group of old linesmen, selected bv him. and who "know what, it Is all about.” His selected group Include W. H. Corbin. George Woodruff. Bob Loree. Rav Bigelow. Pudge Heffelfineer. Herb Dillon. Eddie Hart. Truxton Hare. Ham Fish Ilf Ham can get away from the communists long enough i Bud Sprague and Paul De Shields. “Let’s get the opinion of these men” challenges Mr. Sanford, "as to whether defensive hands should In any wav be restricted. I am sure vou will find their advice more Intelligent and saner than the drival of faculty members and state's sport executives who grapple with weighty problems bv sending out post card auestionalres.” Mr. Sanford places the blame for dirty Plav and excessive brutality, such as the use of the “rabbit punch” in the line on coaches and players of low character. “ No Player ever used the ‘rabbit punch’ on an opponent unless he was coached to do so.” insists the 61-vear-old fire brand who literally grew up with the game. "Bv restricting the use of defensive hands” he continues, “vou haven’t ln anv sense eliminated slugging. If it’s in a man to slug he will slug in spite of all the rules in the world. From the beginning of time it, has bene demonstrated that virtua is not achieved through prescription. Through the years I have observed that teams nlav clean football or dirty football ln accordance with their teachings.”

Logan

Sunshine and wind combined to dry out the diamond this morning, and Tom Logan, park superintendent, said he expected to have the new field in perfect shape by game time. Manager McCann of the Indians sent his pastimers through a workout this morning and the athletes were in happy spirits over the return of mild weather. Florida Lineup Intact Tom Angley was slated to receive the slants of Bob Logan in the tilt with Toronto this afternoon and the rest of the lineup was to be the same as used in the late exhibitions in Florida before the squad came north. On the infield were to be McCann, Sigafoos, Kroner and Goldman and filling the outfield pasts were to be Rosenberg, Fitzgerald and Walker. Keen rivalry exists between American Association and International League clubs and the current threegame set is expected to produce some lively battles. A number of Toronto tossers worked out at the stadium Friday afternoon along with the Indians and Manager Daly said his boys were eager to tackle the Hoosiers. His Leafs made an impressive showing in the south as they worked their way north. Two Drills Friday Pilot McCann of the Tribe lost no time Friday despite inclement weather. In the morning he drilled his men in the Butler university gym and in the afternoon a long practice was held at the stadium. About 1,000 fans were on hand at the new park to see the players go through the paces. Manager McCann was puzzled Friday by the manner the boys walloped the sphere over the tall walls. Last Septetnber it was considered a great feat to clear the barrier, but on Friday three of the Tribesmen sent the ball soaring out of the lot. Ernie Wingard clouted one over the right field wall and Ed Younger and Harry Rosenberg lifted the horsehide over the left eld wall.
