This 1" direct conflict with the NCAA restricted policy that has been in effect for four years. The Big Ten Is against stricted television, favored by Notre Dame, but prefers a reg ona pattern controlled at a national level Notre Dame would along with this for the time being as "a step in the. right direction. What can the Big Ten do to get regional football TV? The least it can do at Its winter meetings Is to reaffirm Its stand.

The most It can do Is to defy the NCAA "going out on its own and peddling a regional "package" to a sponsor willing to pick up a tab of a million dollars or more. Defiance of the NCAA, or a bolt from that organization, is considered remote at this time, although last March it was a possibility. A probability is that the Big Ten formally will petition the NCAA for regional football television in 1955 on an experimental basis.
