Experts Disagree On Turf Injuries WASHINGTON (AP) - Pounding his fist into a sample of Airtrout to demonstrate Mackenzie's ability, O'ficial said Tuesday that football injuries were just part of the game and should not be blamed. But an official of another company that also makes synthetic surfaces said the turf was one of its strongest element "in football injuries. "Football, no matter where it is played, is a violent contact sport," gave Glen Troy. "For the most part, football injuries have played as players as an uncomfortable bystander of participation in the game." Also testifying before the house subcommittee on commerce and finance were Morten Broffman, president, Rubber Co. and Rubber Co. and Kenneth S. Clarke, professor of health at Mankato, Minn. State College. "The entire subject of athletic injuries is an extremely complex one that involves a host of variables of which synthetic turf can affect," he said of the variables, "and said James F. Higgins of the AM Company." The 3M Company manufactures Tartan Turf and American Blitrite makes Polyturf. "Synthetic turf does not accelerate or extend the rate of injury," she said. "The data and information from our customers indicate that severe injuries occur with less frequency on our product than on natural grass." On Monday, the subcommittee was told artificial turf caused "abrasions, staphylococcus infections, increased knee and ankle injuries, heat prostration and possibly fractures and soft tissue damage" the hardness of the foundation beneath the playing surface. Dr James Garick of the Dr. James Garick of the University survey he conducted showed an injury rate on synthetic turf 50 per cent higher than that on concrete. Troy disputed Garrick's findings and said other aspects of the game, not artificial turf, should be under investigation. Higgins said Tartan Turf was designed to reduce injuries, especially to the knee and ankle. "We have engineered our system to be as safe as we can ensure it is safe, but we cannot control the style of play, the protective equipment and footwear used or the conduct of the players involved." "We believe it is difficult—almost impossible—to say that an alien would not have occurred on natural turf, or vice versa," he said. On the graded scale of 20 points for a first place vote, 18 for second place, 15 for seventh selection. Oklahoma was a close second with 1.010. The Sooners collected 17 first place votes after trucuring Iowa State 45-12. Broffman said his company believes "the more valid question is the sport of football itself." Other first place votes went to Michigan, the No. 3 team, which got two. Auburn and Penn State each received a second followed by Auburn, Penn State, Georgia, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Arizona State. Auburn and Penn state meet in their annual bash Nov. 20, date with Ohio State. Penn State closes its regular season against Tennessee Dec. 4. Notre Dame advances to 13.

Baltimore's manager Earl Weaver said, "It was the best job Pat did this year." The Orioles, now in Japan as guests of the Giants for a game basketing tour, are the 14th U.S. major league baseball team (1920, 1931, and 2005). Dobson was the first American to pitch a no-hitter. Immediately prior to the kickoff, the team taddies at midfield to recite its version of the game. The players widely accepted by yell leaders. FOR 60 MINUTES—two 30-minute halves, the KU ruggers, who wear no protective equipment, attempt to destroy their opponents. The ball, similar to a football, may be advanced by a player whose "one's feet," kicking it, running with the feet, or passing it laterally. The atmosphere that surrounds a KU rugby game is different than those of any other sport might choose to watch. There are no bleachers or stadium; no screaming coaches; no band, horn or drum; Rather, the parents and friends of the ruggers sit at carops, the field, and sip wine and beer. Blocking is not permitted, but punishing tackles are frequent. A player can block the ball across the goal line, or place kicking or dropkicking the ball. WIN, LOSE, OR DRAW, all hostility and competitiveness is left on the field. Postgame activities usually adhere to the grass tradition, although two or three ruggers or two get drunk, and eventually the infamous rugby player BEFORE THE GAME the ruggers joke with each other, talk to the spectators and occasionally the game draws near. The mood becomes more serious. The basic techniques and finer points of the game are worked on and the upcoming game is discussed. Spectators generally conclude that the game is insane and that the players have little, if any, skill. Fistcuffs, which are left to be controlled by a single referee, occur frequently throughout the season. Many a referee has had experience to contend with at one time. The biggest concern the Hawks have about the Colorado team is their running game. One of the reasons for this concern is that the Buffalo backs are physically big. Rugby, from which the American version of football was derived, can be described as a game played on a grassy football and a barrow brawl. "We realize we not being for a conference title or for a bowl bid, but the team has a lot of personal satisfaction, and going to try to win every Saturday from here on out," he said.

Asked recently why he played, Tex Robinson, wing forward for KU, summed up the thoughts or many of the ruggers when he said, "It is a tough sport and we enjoy it. You aren’t forced to do that because you want to thank but because we coach ourselves all in it, it is just a good time." IT MIGHT SEEM that he would not have a coach determined to deter him. Johnson pointed out that Colin MacMillan, a Scottish teacher who plays the piano, has been a great influence. practice. "Colin has played rugby all his life," Robinson said.
