Games From Cage Schedule
DURHAM, N. C. (AP)
Duke University Wednesday
cancelled both of this season's
basketball games with the Uni
versity of South Carolina in
the continuing controversy
ove South Caroina's ineligible
sophomore basketball s t a r ,
Mike Grosso.
The action was taken under
authorization by the Atlantic
Coast Conference. The confer
ence announced at its meet
ing last Friday that member
schools which considered it "in
advisable" to play on the South
Carolina court this season
could either seek to reschedule
the games for neutral courts
or, failing this, crucel.
South Carolina was granted
the same option.
The teams were to have met
on the Duke court next Mon
day and at Columbia, Feb. 11.
Both reportedly were trying
to arrange substitute games.
Duke Athletic Director Ed
die Cameron announced the
cancellation in a brief state
ment in which Grosso was re
ferred to, but not identified.
Cameron commented, "We
are not mad. But it is the
feeling of the Duke adminis
tration that this incident has
grown out of proportion and

a cooling off period is desir

He added that it had been
suggested that the teams play r
on neutral courts, but this was
not considered feasible by
Duke.
South "Carolina officials, s
however, made it clear that r
they favored playing both ;
games against Duke and
and would have done so at ;
Durham if Duke did not want I
to play in Columbia.
In fact, a university spokes
man said, South Carolina's in- ;
terpretation of the ACC rul
ing permitting cancellations
was that only games at Co- v
lumbia could be cancelled, not ;,
those on the opponent's home
court. :'
South Carolina Athletic Di
rector Paul Dietzel issued this ;
statement:
"When I questioned the com-
missioner of the Atlantic Coast
Confference Jim Weaver, this
morning, he told me that' it :
was the intent of the Atlantic '
Coast Conference, that any :
member insititution had the
prerogative that Duke has ex-
ercised. ,
Therefore, the officials of :
Duke University are within ,
the rights granted them by the ,
Atlantic Coast' Conference at
the Dec. 7 meeting held at Hil
ton Head Island, S. C.
"Regrettable as it is to lose
two fine scheduled Atlantic
Coast Conference games, the
University of South Carolina
accepts the decision.
"We have enjoyed a long
and pleasant rivalry in all
sports with Duke University,
and the University of South
Carolina plans that this will
continue," Dietzel added.
ACC President Dr. Ralph Fa
dum of North Carolina State,
said previously the league had
authorized - such action "be
cause of the climate created
by events of the past several
months." He added that the
conference was "conscious of
the fact that basketball

games can create an explos
ive situation."
Grosso, a 6-foct-9, 230-pound-er
from Raritan, N. J., was
declared ineligible last Octo
ber by the ACC executive
committee. Later, Fadum said
irregularities in admissions
procedures in Grosso's case
were behind the decision.
The NCAA has investigated
the case and its decision is ex
pected next month.
South Carolina coach Frank
McGuire was reprimanded
last week by South Carolina
President Dr. Thomas Jones
for his sharp public criticism
of the conference.
Cameron issued this state
ment: "Due to the unfortunate ser
ies of events connected with
the determination of the eligi
bility of a South Carolina bas
ketball player this year, it is
the feeling of the athletic
officials at Duke that the re
gular season games between
USC and Duke should not be
held this season.
"In no way should this be
construed as a break in ath
letic relations between the
two universities, since we have
future scheduled meetings in
other major sports, Rather,
this is merely the cancella
tion of two basketball games.
This does not preclude the pos
; sibility that our' teams may
meet during the ACC tourna
ment next March.
"The schools are attempting
to schedule games with other
institutions to replace the two
games on their schedules."
UNC Athletic Director
Chuck Erickson said that he
is "hopeful" that a new head
football coach can be named
by Friday.
The University five - man
screening committee had an
appointment with a candidate
late Wednesday afternoon.
One more interview may be
in order, Erickson said, "be
fore we can get down to the
meat of it."
"I hope that by Friday we
may be able to make an an
nouncement, but we still may
have to hold off until next
week."
Jim Hickey resigned the
head coaching position shortly
after this year's team finished
its season with a 2-8 record.
Hickey, who had been at
Chapel Hill for eight years,
accepted a job as Athletic Di
rector at the Univeersity of
Connecticut.
The list of candidates for
the job numbered over 70, of
which a half dozen have been
interviewed. Candidates came
from the ranks of college and
professional coaches and ex
coaches. The rumor mill has been
constantly in motion since
Hickey stepped down, but the
consensus is that the choice
has been narrowed down to
three menJohn Ray, an as
sistant coach at Notre Dame,
Bill Dooley, an assistant at
Georgia, and Jerry Claiborne,
head coach at VPI.
The latest rumor, and it
must be stressed that nothing
is known for a fact, is that
Ray may be out of the run
ning. His reported demands
for a long-term contract and
high salary plus criticism of
UNC's athletic program may
have caused him to fall in dis
favor with the Carolina Ath
letic Committee.
Dooley is reported a serious
candidate at Mississippi State
as well as UXC. Claiborne,
who says he is happy at VPI,
could still be enticed to either
UNC or Vanderbilt. The possi
bility of a dark-horse candi
date previously unmentioned
still exists also.
