Turf debated at NFL meeting amid turf safety claims
The NFLPA pressed for a moratorium on artificial turf citing possible injuries. Commissioner Rozelle rejected the moratorium citing a Stanford Research Institute study finding no major injury difference between turf and natural grass. He cited sidelines buffer, warmup time, and equipment use as key issues under review.

NFLPA chief comments on game safety and penalties
Garvey said he received the policy about the same time as its Wednesday release. Rozelle announced a longer halftime warmup window and fines for teams not keeping the buffer zone clear of personnel. The study notes quarterbacks and running backs face higher injuries than linemen who stay in the "pit" during play and urges officials to watch fouls on ball carriers.
