Grid conference agrees to sanity code and revised scouting limits
EMPE Arizona May 8 representatives of the Bord 1 conference voted acceptance of the National Collegiate Athletic Association sanity code in executive session. The loop will observe ties and aid to athletics with training tables allowed under NCAA rules. Section 16 prohibiting tables was repealed and stricter controls on football scouting, including banning motion-picture study of rival teams, were imposed. A school may host a rival conference club in up to two conference games, while if two conference teams meet non-conference scouting is limited. A gentleman’s agreement rejects sharing scouting data across conferences. A new method for selecting all-conference teams was approved, with master sheets and final votes by coaches. Freshman football may play five games per season. New contracts for all events were approved and a committee setup authorized. Las Cruces, New Mexico, was chosen as cross-country site for fall addition to the league.
