While it is common practice for an official to call a major, or upgrade a
previously-called minor to a major, upon seeing evidence of bloodshed,
there doesn't appear to be anything in the rule book that states an
official *must* or *should* do so.
BTW, the 2001 rulebook is online at www.nihoa.com/rulebook .
