Pace 5
Year Probation For Viola
O
ILJiQJJiLii:
NCAA
HOUSTON (AP) The
council of the National Colle
giate Athletic Association put
South Carolina on probation for
two years and censored and
reprimanded Texas Western
Sunday.
t
The policy making body for
the nation's collegiate athletic
organization also lifted a proba
tion on Texas A&M.
The action against South Car
olina, for violation of regula
tions involving financial aid to
athletes, prohibits the school
from participating in any post
season football or basketball
games, including tournaments.
It also prohibits the Game
cocks from participating in any
television program subject to
control of. the NCAA, meaning
they won't be in any televised
football games.
The action against Texas
Western actually amounts to
little more than a slap on the
wrist and does not prohibit the
school from competing for any
NCAA championships.
Texas Western is the defend-
ing NCAA basketball champion
and currently ranks sixth
among the nation's college bas
ketball powers.
The council cited South Caro
lina for one infraction involving
academic standards and -three
dealing with financial aid to
athletes. ' '
It said that in September,
1965, a prospective student ath
lete was admitted to the univer
sity, contrary to regular pub
lished France requirements of
the institution.
The athlete was not identified,
but it was assumed the ref
erence was to Mike Grosso, a
star basketball player who was
ruled ineligible by the Atlantic
Coast Conference.
Grosso's ineligibility has been
the. center of a heated contro
versy in the conference.
Grosso is a sophomore from
Raritan. N.J., who reportedly
failed on one test for entrance
but later passed a second test
which was said to be identical.
The coi'nrii cited the viola- -tions
by South Carolina on fi
nancial aid: ,
."During the year 1565-65
Marvin Bass, the University's
director of athletics and head
football coach, provided three
student athletes, all ineligible to
receive financial aid, with cash,
meal tickets and books from
sources under his control.
9 During the same period
and continuing through the first
semester of the 1966-67 college
year, the educational expenses
I of a student athlete were paid
by a corporation upon which the
student athlete was neither nat
urally nor legally dependent.
The financial aid to stu
dent athletes was not adminis
tered by the university's regu
lar committee or agency re
sponsible for awarding scholar
ships or grants in aid.
The council also said that in
the school year of 1965-66 Bass,
with the assistance of the then
business manager of athletics,
created a secret fund reportedly
to be used for entertainment
purposes, including entertain
ment cf high school coaches.
Bass, who held a dual capac
ity of athletic director and head
football coach at South Caroli
na, was succeeded earlier this
year by Paul Dietzel, formerly
of Army.
Ths council said seven ath
letes were involved in the in
fractions four football and
three basketball performers
but none was identified.
The council declared all the
players involved ineligible.
The council's case against
South Carolina covered close
to 1.000 words.
It said that daring July, 1565,
a representative cf South Caro-
Una's athletic interests ar
ranged and conducted a basket
ball game in New Jersey in
which four prospective athletes
were provided a chance to dis
play their talents.
It added that the university's
sthletic interests also provided
transportation, meals and lodg
ing for three of the athletes dur
ing the round trip from their
homes to the game site.

There is a great deal of injustice in this world,
and a good example of it is the comparison between
the professional football player and the sports writer.
Now right away, you are wondering how the
two can be compared. The one bangs his body
against a foe weekly for the glory (and the pay) of
playing on a winner. The other merely sits and
chronicles the game.
The one is susceptible to injuries with each game
and if he is fortunate, escapes the season with only
a few missing teeth and bruises, no broken bones.
The other's main hazard is a paunch from sitting so
much, chronicling the game.
The recent NFL title game is a case in point.
While Dallas and Green Bay, the pride of the NFL's
two divisions, tore into each other for the NFL cham
pionship, big dollar signs floated over their field of
battle.
The olayers on the winning Super Bowl team
stand to earn $15,000 each for that afternoon's work,
quite a large winning share. Now in a two-hour game,
that comes to -a salary of $7,500 per hour for each
winning player, whether he rides the bench or leaves
part of his body on the playing field.
That is good pay.
The writer covering that Super Bowl game, how
ever, will be paid $125 per week, if he is lucky. That
averages to in a '40-hour week about $3.12 per
hour. ., - . - ' ;
Compare the football player's $7,500 per hour to
the writer's $3.12 per hour. That is justice?
Admittedly, the player's work is harder. He can
suffer inky fingers if his typewriter ribbon goes awry,
and he can suffer a sore backside: from sitting, so
muchu, Should hebe.an advocate., of r thetwo-fiagex,
pick-and-curse typing . method, he can fatso ? suffer aa
couple of sore fingers.
But his mental homework, too, is important. To
do the job well, the writer must be able to recognize a
myriad of offensive and defensive formations at a
glance, understand why one is used to combat the oth
er, and why one might fail in a given game.
Neither job is easy, and the players is harder. But
: is it worth $7,500 per hour to the writer's paltry $3.12
per hour?
Certainly. In a world full of injustice.

Grosso Eligible Elsewhere
Can 9t Play For Gamecocks
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP)
As far as the University of
South Carolina is concerned,
the controversial Mike Grosso
case is ended.
Sunday's ruling by the Na
tional Collegiate Athletic As
sociation Council upheld an
ineligibility ruling against
Grosse made by the Atlantic
Coast Conference, of which
South Carolina is a member.
South Carolina will be on pro
bation for the next two years
under the NCAA ruling which
also cited the university for
unauthorized aid to three foot
ball players, who have since
graduated or .flunked out.
The ruling did not declare;
Grosso ineligible for NCAA
competition, It simply means
that Grosse will have to trans
fer to a school whose admis
sion requirements he can meet
if he wants' to play basket
ball. Grosso, a sophomore from

Raritan, N. J., reportedly has
offers from some schools out

leave South Carolina.
Even though his eligibility
was being questioned, Grosso
practiced with the Gamecock
team before the basketball sea
sonstarted. Ironically he suf
fered, an injury and under

Doctors say he will not be
able to play basketball for
several niore weeks.
Grosso's eligibility was ques
tioned within the ACC when
it was learned his score on en
trance examinations was low
er than that required for stu-
dznt athletes on scholarships.
South Carolina maintained that
Grosso was not on a scholar
shiD and that his fees were
being paid by a member of
his family.
In Sunday's NCAA ruling, it
was said that this aid was il
legal since the student athlete
"was neither naturally, nor
legally, dependent on a corpor
ation paying his tees. l n e

Grosso's Bar and Grill of New
