High School Football Fatalities Seen Falling in 1962
The National Federation of State High School Associations and the National Safety Council expect a drop in high school football fatalities in 1962 after a record high. Last year 15 direct deaths and seven indirect fatalities were linked to the sport, with experts attributing the spike to cyclic factors rather than equipment failures.
