'Personal Fouls,' by Peter Golen bock, did not meet the publishing standards established at Pocket Books," said an offical spokesperson at Pocket Books. "Therefore, Pocket Books will not proceed with publi cation of the book." The spokesperson declined any additional comment, including spec-. ulation whether the book would be published by any other house at any time.

"Now I am hoping to turn my full attention and energies to the players of the North Carolina State basketball team and to the people involved in the operation of our department of athletics," he concluded. The manuscript was supposed to have contained evidence of corrup tion at NCSU, and rumors were fueled in January when the Raleigh News and Observer obtained a dust jacket from the book, even though Pocket Books denied that any books have been run off the presses. A commission, which included members of the Board of Governors and the State Bureau of Investigation, was formed soon after that. The commission has collected some 3,000 documents so far. NCSU Chancellor Bruce Poulton held a press conference at 3 p.m. Wednesday. He read a prepared statement and answered questions Athletic Association's investigations.

"The real losers are the people of North Carolina."
