Todays Sportrait By JACK CUDDY CHICAGO sf) Walter Byers jumped from sports writing to ath letic administration in less than five years and today the affable Missourian has the sometimes unenviable task of making National Collegiate Athletic Association maneuvers understandable to the public. ■ i a former United Press sports writer, he resigned to become pub lic relations representative for the Western Conference. Later he be came assistant commissioner and recently switched to become the NCAA’s executive director. In that capacity he must inform the public that it can’t see televi sion of certain college football games because to do so would vio late the NCAA experimental video program. Or that John D. Basket ball can’t snipe for field goals in the national tournament next spring !because he used up a year of eligibility as a freshman. Byers, black haired, short and husky, is not the hatchet man for the NCAA. His job consists of co-ordinating the various national services the association performs as well as interpreting policy mat ters established by the all-powerful council. “The public at large is not well acquainted with the administration of college athletics and its mechanics and operation," he said. “Very few people are. “That’s what makes the task of the NCAA difficult. A fan is famil iar with an offsides signal on the football field, but doesn’t under kt'Jid such things as the normal progress rule for eligibility, and the different types of administration performed by the colleges, their Conferences, and the NCAA.” • • The association performs numerous services for its members and ;the public. It publishes official guides, including the rules, statis tics and history, in nine sports. It maintains a film library of national championship competition for Instructional use in high schools, col leges, churches or other public bodies. Its service bureau compiles and publishes records. The organization provides funds and other assistance for groups interested in promoting intercollegiate or intramural athletics. It sponsors national tourna ments in 12 sports. "The colleges ask us to do something,” Byers said, “and we tty to do it. We’re a national association to pay attention to any problem that cuts across local and regional lines. The members judge what problems are sufficiently national for NCAA action and by acting on concert, try to solve them. The problems of television are an example.” to solve them. The problems of television are an example.” „ Byers, 31-years-old. has the Job of explaining exactly what NCAA policies and decisions are. • ’• 4 ’■• ■—-p i Harnett Cage Season Opens At Buies Creek On Thursday “Coach Earl Smith of Campbell CbHege is coaching the Buie’s Creek High School boys’ basketball team also.

Southern Conference Harmony Resting With Bowl Decisions Clemson Accepts Bowl Bid Despite Conference "No" DURHAM. N. C. OP Clemson was threatened with expulsion from the Southern Conference todav for aceeptire a Gatrn- Bowl invitation even after the league denied per mission to play. At the same time, a Doll of the conference college president indica ted Marvlnwd will rvn* into the same trouble when its eoeks annrnv al of its S"«rar Bowl bid at the league meeting next month. Clemson asked the conference for permission to play Miami in the Gator Bowl at Jacksonville. Fla. The conference voted no. But Clem son accepted the invitation anyway. Maryland accepted a Sugar Bowl invitation without requesting per mission and indicated it would seek the formal okav at the next league meeting Dec. 14 at Richmond. Va. Conference Commissioner Wal lace Wade said here today that Clemson violated the conference by laws by refusing to go by the league vote on the bowl issue. He said he “couldn’t even guess” what the ■ league would do about it_ hut that under the by-laws this could mean, expulsion. i BETWEEN THE LINES I Clemson President R. F. Poole said he considered the conference vote a "recommendation” and not . a directive. Hence he consulted the mileae t’-nrt.ees and then accepted the Gator Bowl bid. A United Press survey of the available college presidents showed, generally, little sympathy for the Clemson position. A Maryland spokesman insisted there was no onnferene ban against bowls, and Gen. Charles P Summerall. presi dent of The Citadel, revealed his ■ school voted in favor of Clemson ! accepting the bid. Norman BmU.h of South Carolina ■ said he thought it would be better i to wait a year before banning the i bowls. B’>t otherwise the Clemson re ception was chilly, to sav the least. PRESIDENTS STAND FIRM President Hollis Edens tit Duke sa'd. "I’m opposed to bowl games, voted against them at. our last meeting and I haven’t changed my mind since.” President Walter N*w tn»n of Virginia Polvtech said “We felt accepting a bowl Hd would not be to the best interest of inter collegiate athletics or the confer ence." President George Modlin of Richmond said. "We’re already com mitted to voting against acceptance of bowl bids ” President Irvin Stewart of West Virginia said, “Thirteen of the 17 presidents of conference schools vot ed last September that they would not give permission for any con ference member to play to a bowl game. I was one of those 13.” The issue may split the confer ence wide open at the December meeting. There’s little liklihood Maryland will change its mind about the Bugar Bowl bid, even If It fails to swing the conference. was just above the .500 mark with 14 wins and 13 losses.
