By HUGH FULLERTON, Jr.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6. GP—
The influential rules committee of the American Football Coaches association took steps today to outlaw the controversial "sucker shift" used by Notre Dame and some other college gridiron teams.
The group recommended a change in the rule concerning false starts which would automatically penalize any lineman who makes a move after getting set in his usual starting position.
In effect the proposed new rule would say it was illegal procedure for a lineman to shift his position once he got down with his hands touching the ground. It would rule out the doubtful shifts which aroused a storm of contro-

Fullback Max McGee was Tulane's leader in rushing, punting, punt returns and kickoff returns. He tied with Quarterback Pete Clement for scoring honors.
At least three major college coaching jobs were seated to be filled during the week and rumors were flying all over the place.
The soundest reports seemed to be the vacancies at the University of Arkansas where Otis Douglas resigned at the end of the 1952 season and that freshman coach, John Cherberg would be elevated to the top spot at the University of Washington, succeeding Howe Odell. The other vacancy is at North Carolina where the veteran Carl Snusely, president of the American Football Coaches' association, has resigned.
The football coaches rules committee an influential advisory group also went into session today to consider what changes if any. It should recommend to the national rules today.
The NCAA membership committee created a year ago as the enforcement arm of the governing body. Reported today that it had "processed" three cases which had been publicized previously and that 10 others were under consideration.
The University of Kentucky, Bradley and Midwestern university have accepted the mild punitive actions proposed by the committee and the convention will confirm this action later. Meanwhile the membership committee has proposed legislation, to be considered this week which will create greater enforcement power for the NCAA council. It is the council which acts on the committee's recommendations, but at present it can only propose action by the convention.
The television committee completing its report on the 1952 program of controlled football TV and preparing its plans for 1953, had nothing to say for itself. Its report probably won't be made before Wednesday.
