Results of Poll Show Coaches Favor Retaining 1953 Sub Rule

The 1953 limited substitution rule received the support of 319 coaches of the American Football Coaches Association according to the statistics of a poll taken by Lou Little, released last night.

Little, Columbia coach and chairman of the rules committee of the AFCA, said 189 other coaches urged a return to the wide open play of previous years, while 257 more voted to liberalize the 1953 regulations but not make them as liberal as under the two platoon plan.
