Football Rule Changes Help Offensive Power For 1940s
ST LOUIS Jan 14 Football rule changes announced by the NCAA football rules committee aim to boost offense next fall. Chairman Willan J Bingham said the quarterback may receive the snap from under center even when less than a yard behind the line, aiding the T formation and potential new J wing. Other changes include five yard illegal pass penalties, four timeouts per half, larger jersey numerals, and adjusted penalties for fouls after crossing the line of scrimmage. Also Brooklyn Dodger prospect Stan Reels was discharged from the army and aims for a spring tryout, hoping to win a third base job.
