Athletes may soon be protected from crippling injuries if the National Collegiate Athletic Association's new insurance plan that adopted.

A special committee recently recommended at inexpensive blanket plan that would insure players up to $5,000. The proposal calls for a $250 deductible insurance policy that would cost one dollar per year for each athlete. Under the group plan the premiums would be paid by the school, and it would cover any athlete hurt in collegiate practice, games, or travel. The group plan is optional and is being explained to members of the NCAA by mail.
