V.7URDAY, JANUARY 14, ISoO . THE DAILY -TAR HEEL PAGE TITBIT UNC Delegates Win ers; Back Sinn EasketBallers i V Will Not Vote Against Any League Members-Fetzer By Buddy Vaden University of North Carolina representatives to the Na tional Collegiate Athletic Association meeting in New York I -el that the problem of financial aid to athletes, particularly football players, is a matter of conference regulation and that .vcompanyintf conditions are applicable to sections rather than to the nation as a whole, it was disclosed last night in a telephone conversation with R. A. (Coach Bob) Fetzer, Director of Physical Education and Athletics. The Tar J led delegation, wun 1)- A. W. Ilobbs, head of the i I'riiV' riaty Faculty Committee on Athletics, the voting delegate, ...ill stand behind the seven S'.-.ithern srhools accused of vio !;,t;n;; the "Sanity Code," Mr. y, tcr said. ''c will certainly not vote for tlH xpulsion of any member of t),(. Snuthern Conference from . ,. NCAA," Fetzer said. North (';,;(. lina will stick with the other ii. mi. hers of the Southern, South i ;. tern, and Southwest Confer ee rs who are bucking the NC AA's regulation controlling the .varling of athletic scholarships. The Citadel, one of the seven Southern schools accused of vio latinn the sanity code, had al rc I'ly dropped out of the NCAA ;, ,; a protest against the code. (Kher schools put on the carpet by NCAA President Carl Leib w re Virginia, Virginia Military Institute, Virginia Tech, and The Citadel. In an Associated Press report quoting a prominent athletic of ficial, the three remaining vio lators were said to be the Uni versity of Maryland, Boston Col kge, and Villanova. The South's main objection to the NCAA is that with the adop tion o tne sanuy coae in i-o the NCAA has acquired more governing power than was in tended. Previously the NCAA h.-rl acted only as a schedule- making body. "The NCAA should continue to be a regulatory body with high educational ambitions," Fetzer said, but he pointed out that the sanity code should not be a national problem, but rath vr .should be left in the hands of individual conferences. One factor in the sanity code that brought protests from the South was the section prohibiting year-round training tables for football players. The Southern delegation . has . proposed an amendment that would provide for all year training tables and North Carolina will "join in sup port, of this amendment." "Carolina has been and will continue to make an honest ef fort to comply with the sanity code. We have not been ques tioned by the NCAA as to our athletic policies. We have com plied with the code and will con tinue to do so," Fetzer said. How ever, the North Carolina delega tion is opposed to the sanity code as it now stands and will join with other Cenference schools in stromdy proposing amendments that will give more governing power to the individual confer t nces. "The NCAA regulations do not specifically regulate financial aid from outside sources such as alumni groups and apparently a good deal of aid is coming through this channel. How to control the outside agencies is Ouster Vote Sets Future of NCAA, Says Executive NEW YORK, Jan. 13 (If') The South's Sanity Code Rebels gird ed for tomorrow's showdown in quiet, private caucuses today while learning three Eastern in stitutions probably will line up with them in their fight against the NCCA. Boston College, Villanova and Maryland were reported to be the other three teams on a list of seven scheduled to face the wrath of the National Collegiate Ath- etic Association in its windup meeting. The matter is to be brought be fore the convention tomorrow with a two-thirds vote of those present needed to expel. Boston College's Athletic Di-I rector John P. Curley admitted this morning his school was one of those on the griddle, Boston informed the NCAA, as did the others, it could not conform with the new code relating to athletic subsidies. Villanova had made no official statement but Coach Jim Leon ard said, "Sure, we make no pre tense. We are paying the tuition and board of some of our . ath letes." Maryland's militant president, Dr. II. C. Byrd, is a long-time advocate of athletic scholarships under university administration. He appeared before the NCAA Council yesterday, along with representatives of the well known "sinners." The next to last day of the convention was otherwise on the mild side with these main devel opments: Dr. Karl Leib, president of the NCAA and father of the Sanity Code, warned that tomorrows session would be "the most im portant in the history of college athletics." L. R. (Dutch) Meyer of Texas Christian sharply criticized bowl games as responsible for the in stability in the coaching profes sion and for proselyting of athletes Hogan Stumblps in First Round Of Crosby Test PEBBLE BEACH, Calif., Jan. 13 (TP) Eantarn Een Hogan and his golfing comeback ran into a temporary road block today in the first round of the Bing Cros by $10,000 Invitational Tourna ment. The little gamester, back on the tournament trail after 11 months recovering from an auto accident, found nothing but trouble in the closing holes of his first round over the Cypress Point Course. He tacked up a five over par 77 j after a provoking session that saw him three-putt two greens and twice visit the ocean beaches to cost himself extra strokes. Hogan, winner of the profes sional end of Crosby's tourna ment a year ago, thus got off to a miserable start. He was one of the co-favorites. The 54-hole event is played on three courses. Tomorrows sec ond round will take place on the Monterey Peninsula layout. The final round Sunday will be over the championship Pebble Beach Course. After his Sensational tie this week with Sam Snead for first place in the Los Angeles Open, Hogan's stock soared sky-high for the Crosbv tournament. His comeback was launched in spec tacular fashion. For 13 holes today, Hogan held his own. In fact he was a stroke under par going into the 14th. He three-Dutted the 388-yard 14th to take a one over par five. On the 15th, a 113-yard down hill soft touch most of the time Hogan's ball landed on the rocky beach. He tried to play it out missed one shot and got on the green in three. He needed two putts to go down and carded a five on the par three hole. Tar Heels Meet' Powerful Ohio State Mermen Today Sporting a season's record of two straight wins, Carolina's Blue and White swimmers will ; meet a strongly favored aggregation from Ohio State at 2:30 this af ternoon in Bowman Gray Pool.

Local; Thine jads Compete Tonight In Indoor Meet " By Frank Allsion Jr. WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 The Carolina twelve-man indoor track squad, arrived here early tonlght'to compete in the annual Washington- Evening Star Dis trict of Columbia AAU Invitation ndoor Track Meet tomorrow. It was not known until noon time, only an hour before the team was scheduled to leave, that Albans would be able to defend the high jump crown he won here last year. Univer sity and Duke Hospital doctors . declared him physcially fit and recovered from his grid injury. 'Snare' Elected VP NEW YORK, Jan. lZtA) Lynn (Pappy) Waldorf of Cali fornia was elected president of the American Football Coaches Association today to succeed L. R.

Mural News Deasy Shot Gains Victory As Final Buzzer Sounds The Tar Heels have four men in the open divisions of the meet and they all competed here last year. Sam Magill, who will face an exceedingly tough two-mile field, will run that event; Bob Morrow, the 70-yard high hurdles and Bill Albans and Jack Moody get . the high jump nod in proba bly the toughest competition of them all. Carolina's two relay teams will find the competition somewhat relaxed, but not easy by any manner. The Carolina - foursome of Percy Flowers, Gene Bingham, Bill Crimmins and Clarence Mc Lain will face strictly Southern Conference schools in the mile relay. In the two-mile event Tar Heel Coach Dale Ranson has entered a quartet of Gordon Hamrick, Frank Hooper, Halsted Holden and Laddie Terrel. Carolina Clowns To Open Season In Woollen Nexti Thursday Night another problem which will prob ably be taken up in tomorrow's business session," Fetzer said. "Athletic scholarships now in effect in Chapel Hill are in ac cordance with those prescribed bv the sanity code," he added. The North Carolina delegation, composed of Mr. Fetzer, Dr Hobbs. and C. P. (Chuck) Erick- son, Assistant Director of ath letics, will stick with the South rn hW in tomorrow's business sessions and will not have complete line on just how the TTni,-ritv of North Carolina stands until the meeting is over By Andy Taylor They may carry Charlie Jus tice out in a coffin or they may come, up with another routine just as effective. One thing's certain, the fans will love it. It will all be as part of the colorful spectacle to take place Thursday night in Woollen Gym when the Carolina Clowns take to the court for their season's opener. This is probably one of the few appearances Charlie will be able to make with the Clowns this season due to previous com mitments. But there will be two other All-Americans of Tar Heel grid fame on hand to add to the color on the basketball court in the persons of ends Art Weiner and Kenny Powell. Bob "The Toe" Cox, famous in seasons past for his ability at kicking extra points on the gridiron, is an other of the Clowns' top con tenders. Then there's the All-Southern forward. Coy Carson, who made a name as high scorer on - last year's varsity . squad, and V Rip Ryan, another basketball letter man and captain of the 1949 Tar Heel baseball team. Taylor "Tea pot" Thorne'ls also an old timer of court fame who will add. to the Clowns' roster. Other men comprising this, the fourth edi tion of the Cfowns, are: Sandy Hoft, jayvee ace of two years ago, sof tballer Gordon - "Choo" Reagan, soccer letterman Lee Glarmis and player-manager Bernie McKierman, who came to Carolina to play- basketball but was counted ineligible because of his short service with a New York team. - , Claude Crocker, a Carolina baseball player, organized the Clowns in 1947 and has been their manager for the past three sea sons. His idea was to " get to gether a group of .. outstanding Tar Heel athletes, mostly foot ball players, to perform for charr ities and other such organiza tions. Most of the competition ! was provided by all types ' of amateur and semi-professional teams throughout North Carolina and in Virginia. This year, however, things will be different. With their services in great demand the Clowns have decided to go professional. Ber nie McKierman will take over where Crocker left off as mana ger and handler of the team's schedule and other affairs. They will take on more teams in the professional bracket and will ask for guarantees for all of their appearances. They will, of course continue to play many games for charity. . The Clowns have always man aged to put out a number of top notch performers. They are i good team, as witnessed by their impressive record of 56 straight games without a defeat over the three-year period of their exis tance. They are able to play a fine brand of basketball and stil provide, an unusual type of en tertainment for the spectators.

The long, desperation shot swished through the hoop after the game actually had ended. Coach Tom Scott and his weary Tar Heel squad vigorously pro tested as Timekeeper Joe Tatel declared the buzzer had ended Deasy's hands, but Referee Shorty Deasy's hands but Referee Shorty Younts announced that he had heard the horn ending the game and seen the ball in flight at the same instant.
