Coan May Be on Athletic Probation
KU may again have to face the embarrassment of being placed on athletic probation by the National Collegiate Athletic Assn., when the Big Eight Conference faculty representatives meet Dec. 8-9. At that time the representatives, who are the governing body of the Big Eight, are expected to make a decision on the eligibility of KU's star sophomore football halfback, Bert Coan. Coan has been named as one of the principles in the probationary action Oct. 26.
Dean of students, L. C. Woodruff, who is KU's representative, said, "We do not feel there has been any violation in Coan's case therefore we are declaring him eligible."
DEAN WOODRUFF said this declaration on the Texas Christian transfer was reached by the University Senate on Eligibility. This senate is composed of six faculty members. After consideration of the NCAA and Big Eight rules, this senate decided Coan to be eligible for competition.
Dean Woodruff commented that Kansas is showing its confidence in the Senate's decision by playing Coan in the final two games providing his shoulder injury permits. He called this action a "calculated risk" since, if Coan were to be declared infeligible by the conference, KU would be forced to forfeit any games in which Coan appeared.
THERE ARE TWO conference rules which govern the situation which concerns Coan. Both refer to the trip which Coan took with the tortoise oilman Bud Adams to the

The rules state: "No member institution may arrange for or permit excessive entertainment of any prospective student-athlete on the campus or elsewhere." And: "Off-campus trips for prospective students may not be provided or arranged for by a member school, its alumni, or by any other means."
THE RULES CONTNUE, stating the penalty: "Any violation of this section by a member school, alumni, or friends of the institution, with or without the knowledge of the institution, will render the individual or individuals concerned ineligible at that institution."
Since there has never been a case of the NCAA placing an individual athlete no probation, it will be the decision of the conference faculty representatives which will determine whether Coan can ever participate for Kansas again. Woodruff said he didn't know what the present feeling of the other representatives is on the situation now, and it would be hard to know anything about the outcome until the meeting.
Campus NSA Plan Set
The National Student Assn. committee outlined a program for discussion of NSA policies and off-campus issues at its first meeting yesterday.
Approval of the members of the committee will be voted on by the All Student Council tonight.
CAROL McMILLAN, Coldwater junior and NSA coordinator, said the committee will act as a pressure group and will decide which views KU should take on NSA policies and off-campus issues and present them to the ASC.
The first problem Miss McMillan brought before the committee was that of a Negro representative to the NSA regional conference at the University of Missouri last weekend. The Negro student was refused accommodations in a Columbia, Mo., hotel after reservations had been made.
The NSA at KU sent a letter of apology to the Negro student. The committee also decided to send a letter to the Chamber of Commerce in Columbia and the Student Council at MU.
Five students from KU attended the regional conference. They were: Fred Morrison, Colby senior; Jerry Palmer, El Dorado junior; Eduardo Eichberg, special student from Buenos Aires, Argentina; Cecily
