Something very wrong there, Bill.  I don't know what exactly, but if it was
set properly before and now has 1/2" of free play at the pushrod, something
is badly wrong.  I'd say it was likely to be a broken taper pin, except that
wouldn't cause the clutch to slip.  So I'm guessing instead that something
is blocking the pressure plate away from the flywheel; like perhaps the
friction plate coming apart.
