No, it doesn't.

In local league play we get walkers & 3rd stikers constantly "rounding" 1st, stop, and go back. They are OUT.

No, they aren't.

8-7T-3b, c, d, and e concern overrunning.

Here is the rule concerning rounding:

ASA 8-7T-3a A batter-runner who rounds first base toward second base may stop, but then must immediately return to first or attempt to advance non-stop to second base.
