"2002 NFHS Football Rules Interpretations, Interpretations, Situation 7" added a Comment that changed, at least, my interpretation of the glove rule.
According to the situation the umpire sees a glove with webbing between the thumb and forefinger and correctly rules the gloves illegal.
Reason, the rules committee felt the webbing gave an unfair advantage that did not agree with the philosophy of the interscholastic game AND the NF/NCAA label refers only to the tackiness of the palm and fingers of the glove and not the overall legality.
