Talent Raids Irk Faurot
Kansas City, Mo., May 19—(UP)—Don Faurot, athletic director at the University of Missouri, today stuck to his guns on his allegations yesterday here at a luncheon in which he charged six major colleges with making wholesale raids on football talent in Missouri.
"I doubt if such practices are sanctioned by the National Collegiate Athletic Association," Faurot heatedly stated, "but to meet such unfair competition maybe it would be best to drop out of the Association."
The head grid mentor at Missouri told the Quarterback club that he feels "lucky" if he manages to grab one or two of the gridiron stars and suggested a solution might be to withdraw from the N.C.A.A.
Faurot charged the colleges were paying the expenses for prospective players in a trip to the campus even first class airplane trips to the southern schools.
Faurot declined to name high school football stars involved, but he named the schools as Tulane, Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi State, Arkansas and Kansas.
"The youths are offered highly attractive offers to enroll in those colleges." Faurot said.
"Each year there are about 25 outstanding high school football players and if we can get two-thirds of that group we can stay on par with other schools in athletic competition."
Faurot explained the reason for the verbal blast yesterday was in hopes of "airing the matter" out in the open so that something can be done about the situation.
Blues Win In 16th, Halt Losing Streak
Second division teams roused the American Association Tuesday as the lowly Toledo Mud Hens and Kansas City Blues marked up outstanding victories.
Toledo swept a double header from Louisville, 7 to 1 and 5 to 4, yesterday to move past the Colonels into sixth place. Kansas City, defending pennant winner, remained in the cellar but defeated the first place St. Paul Saints, 9 to 8, in a 16-inning contest at Kansas City last night.
The St. Paul-Kansas City sluggest was tied at six-all at the end of nine innings.
