NCAA President Announces Boycott Of Seven Schools
Chicago, Jan. 18—(U.R.)The N.C.A.A. lowered a boycott boom on its "sinful seven" rebels today, touching off a new sanity code battle which might split the organization.
The N.C.A.A. statement said, "officers interpret the majority vote. to be a vote sustaining the findings of the compliance committee that the seven are violating the code.
Mr. Fritchett added Virginia wil continue to negotiate with N.C.A.A teams.
Only a week ago Virginia, Boston college, Villanova, Virginia Military, Virginia Tech, Maryland and The Citadel won a fight over the sanity code forces when they blocked expulsion at the N.C.A.A. convention.
"No one has any authority to issue any official statements for the N.C. A.A. until after the duly-elected council meets and determines what policies are to be set," president H. C. Byrd of Maryland snapped. "Neither the president nor the secretary-treasurer has authority to act for the council."
But despite this victory, N.C.A.A. president Hugh C. Willett and secretary-treasurer Kenneth L. Wilson announced Tuesday that the offending schools cannot play in any N.C.A.A. tournaments this year or enter into any future athletic contracts with other N.C.A.A. members.
Virginia athletic director Norton G. Pritchett said, "I think Willett is taking a great deal of authority which the constitution does not give him."
"It is the judgment of your officers that the present status of the institutions implies:
“(A) That until such time as the charge of noncompliance is lifted. . . these members may not participate in national meets or tournaments under the auspices of the N.C.A.A.
“(B) That until such time as the charge of non-compliance is lifted by the compliance committee, other members of the N.C.A.A. who have regard for the observance of . . . Article IV, section two of the constitution will not schedule athletic contests with these six members.
"Contests already scheduled may be played. However, extension of present contracts or agreements will be regarded as new contract or agreements."
Coach Easton Asks For More Track Men
All men interested in participation in track and field athletics are urged to report to Coach M. E. (Bill) Easton, 105 Robinson Gym up until 3 o'clock, or after this time at the east stadium track room.
The positions on the freshman squad are wide open and any boy who has had track experience or is interested is urged to come out as soon as possible after his final exams are completed. Every boy will be given an opportunity to show what he can do.
There is an urgent need for men in shot put, pole vault, and high jump.
Hogan, Snead Meet For Golf Crown
Los Angeles, Jan. 18—(U.P.)Ben Hogan and Sammy Sneed meet today in their delayed playoff for the Los Angeles open golf championship—the climax to Hogan's stirring comeback from the verge of death
The playoff over the long, tough Riviera Country club layout may emerge as one of golf classic matches as the two western pros, both among the all-time greats, go after $2,600 first-place money. Loser in the 18 holes of medal play picks up $1,900 and each will share equally in 50 per cent of the gate from an expected crowd of 10,000.
The playoff goes into a "sudden death" extension if Hogan and Snead are tied up after 18 holes. That means the first to win a hole would win the match.
Topcape, Kan., Jan. 18. (U-P) The woman's touch will be missing from the Topcape Owl's baseball club of the Western association next season.
