Lakewood Municipal Court Judge
Patrick Carroll.

Chargers show interest
in former Saints coach
SAN DIEGO Chargers general
manager Bobby Beathard said he
plans to interview former New
Orleans Saints coach Jim Mora next
week for the vacancy created when
Bobby Ross resigned from the post
last week.
Although a date hasn't been set,
Beathard said he’d interview Mora at
Mobile, Ala., site of the Senior Bowl
on Jan. 18.
Beathard had hoped to hire a
replacement for Ross by this week, but
it’s not likely going to happen.
Even if Mora doesn’t get the top
job, he might be in line to become
defensive coordinator.
Mora resigned from the Saints at
midseason.

Grad rates of black athletes on rise
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. The
number of black athletes enrolling in
Division I schools that grant scholar
ships is on the rebound after falling off
when Proposition 48 was adopted 10
years ago, the NCAA said Wednesday.
In its first long-term study of the
rule's impact, the NCAA also said
graduation rates for all student-athletes
at such Division I schools continue to
exceed those of the general student
populations.
The NCAA said blacks made up
27.3 percent of all student-athletes
entering the schools in 1985, falling to
23.6 percent in 1986.
By 1989, it had recovered somewhat,
to 25 percent.
The study also showed a rise in grad
uation rates among black male student
athletes from 34 percent of the fresh
man class of 1985, the last year before
Proposition 48, to 41 percent of 1986
freshmen, and 43 percent of 1989 fresh
men.

“We had a diminution of numbers of
African-American student athletes
when we went from pre-Proposition 48
to Prop 48,” said Ursula Walsh, NCAA
director of research.
Under Prop 48, which went into
effect in 1986, freshman athletes had to
meet minimum academic standards to
play, practice or even accept financial
aid in their first year.
The standardized ACT and SAT
tests have been the most controversial
components of the rule, criticized by
many educators as racially and cultur
ally biased.
In Philadelphia on Wednesday, a
public-interest legal group filed a feder
al lawsuit accusing the NCAA of dis
criminating against black athletes by
using SAT scores to determine fresh
men eligibility for sports.
The lawsuit, filed by the Trial
Lawyers for Public Justice, names Tai
Kwan Cureton, a Philadelphia native
and runner now attending Wheaton
College in Massachusetts.
