Changes To Be Made In Schoolboy Rules
Dallas May 2 The Texas Interscholastic League plans a referendum at its Austin breakfast with four propositions on schoolboy athletics. The key changes would raise age limit to 19 and semester limit to ten to strengthen high school football and curb athletic delays. Other proposals restrict out of state play, bar college tryouts, limit basketball to 24 games, and reclassify schools to end the City Conference travel issues. Includes note on spring football and a brief mention of Tom Gambrell and a Tulsa Dallas game incident.
