b. Promising employment, loans, scholarships or
remission of fees.

c. Indirectly contacting prospective athletes by
suggesting to alumni or friends that they en-
deavor to recruit them.

w Staff members shall avoid the appearance of re-

cruiting. Evidence that a staff member has been
guilty of recruiting shall be considered grounds for
action discontinuing the scheduling of contests with
those teams with which he is connected or for
which he has been recruiting.
Regulations governing recruiting by staff members
are designed to relieve the coaches of any sugges-
tion of responsibility for recruiting material for
their teams.

XI. MIGRANT ATHLETES. © Before a migrant athlete
from an institution above high school grade, except from
a strictly organized junior college, may participate he
shall establish beyond reasonable doubt that his mi-
gration had no undue connection with athletic participa-
tion. When an athlete considers transferring to an-
other institution he shall communicate with the authori-
ties of the institution in which he proposes to enroll,
pointing out the reason or reasons for such transfer,
whereupon it shall be the duty of the authorities of such
institution, if a member of this conference, to ascertain
through correspondence the validity of the reason or
reasons for such transfer. Failure om the part of the
migrant athlete, or on the part of the institution, to com-
ply with the provision of this section shall render such
migrant athlete ineligible for further athletic participa-
tion in this conference.
