Moore, Divisional Sales Manager 520 Garlinghouse Building Topeka, Kansas OTTAWA HERALD 2 Wednesday, Jan. 8, 1964 VGA A Eases Sanctions Against Indiana Teams NEW YORK The National Collegiate Athletic Association still is cracking the whip but some of the sting is gone. "It's not that we're getting soft," Walter Byers, executive director of the NCAA, said today after chiding five institutions for recruiting violations and relaxing sanctions against a sixth. "It's just that the colleges are behaving are having fewer and fewer major abuses." The University of Iowa and little Centenary College of Shreveport, each drew a one year probation. Alabama and Houston were officially rep.

rimanded, and Washington State got off lightest of word of caution. At the same time, Indiana University, under a four-year probationary penalty, had its Convention Truce Only Temporary By WILL GRIMSLEY Associated Press Sports Writer NEW YORK white flag of peace flies over head but they're storing up bitterness and weapons of war in the cellar at the NCAA's national convention. The National Collegiate Ath. letic Association, nearing the end of its annual meeting, made it patently clear today that it has not relented a bit in its fight with the Amateur Athletic Un. ion over control of the country's amateur athletics.

"I wouldn't be surprised if some strong stand is not taken on the floor of the convention today," said Walter Byers, ex. ecutive director of the NCAA. "After all, this is simply a truce, not a surrender. "We would rather die than give up in our battle for a prop, er voice in both domestic and international sports. You might say, we are just saving our fire until next Nov.

1 after the Tokyo Olympics." Little fire was saved Tuesday when representatives of the NCAA's U.S. Track and Field Federation, U.S. Gymnastics Federation and U.S. Handball Association leveled fresh blasts at the longtime controlling or. ganization of amateur sports.

"All hell is going to bust out after the Olympics," warned Charles A. (Chick) Werner, president of the rival track group. "There must be a show, down. It is important that the difficulties not continue for an. other Olympic year." Werner criticized government intervention and said: "We're doing the best we can despite being interfered with by the president of the United States and General MacArthur." It was Gen.

Douglas MacAr. thur, who at the insistence of the late President Kennedy, stepped in early last year to ar. bitrate a dispute which threat, ened to wreck the U.S. showing in the Olympics. An agreement was reached whereby the two groups would patch up differences until after the big show in Tokyo.

The NCAA insists that it should have the right to sanction meets involving its athletes. This is a right that traditionally has been confined in open meets to the AAU, the national body recog. nized by the international fed. erations. -OJ Denies M.

Loaded Gloves NEW YORK (AP) Another ghost from the past has risen to haunt Jack Dempsey. Now they are claiming he used loaded gloves in 1919 when he won the world heavyweight boxing title from Jess Willard. The story is revealed in the memoirs of the late Jack (Doc) Kearns, his manager at the time, as published Wednesday in a copyrighted feature in Sports Illustrated. Dempsey denied it in the same article. Kearns claimed he used plas.

ter of paris and water in ban. daging Dempsey's hands to in. sure a 10-1 bet of $10,000 that Dempsey would win it in one round. Kearns lost, for due to a comedy of errors Dempsey won in three rounds. Dempsey's ex.manager said the fighter was "entirely innocent of what happened." The article quoted Dempsey as commenting, "Ridiculous! I could take an oath.

In fact I will. I hope to God I die right now, and my wife and children, too, if there is any truth in what Kearns said." Dempsey was out of town and couldn't be reached immediate, ly for further comment. A month ago Benny Marshall of the Birmingham News wrote that Dempsey had been doped before his first fight with Gene Tunney in Philadelphia. At the time, Dempsey said he was not sick the day of the fight but ad. ded, "a doctor told me the next day, I'd probably been given a Mickey Finn and I probably was ill for three or four days after that." In reference to the 1919 bout, Willard, now 82, told Sports II.

lustrated: "I'm glad that Kearns finally was man enough to admit it. First time Dempsey hit me, I knew the gloves were loaded. He knocked me down seven times, maybe eight. I don't re. call exactly now.

But every time he hit me, I could feel an. other bone or two breaking. I got robbed by the king of the robbers, I guess we could say. That Kearns. As long as I got robbed, I'm glad I got robbed by the best man in the country at stealing Nobody ever knocked me out.

But I was blind. I was dazed from getting dob. bered by those chunks of ce. ment. My face was all broken, and my head was, too." WILLIAMS DAIRY CREME NOW SERVING- Royal King Burgers Made as only we know how.

Leniency was the mood of the feared NCAA council, sports policy-making body of some 600 colleges and universities, in disclosing punishment for those members who had not adhered strictly to the rules. Besides Indiana, New Mexico State, Hardin-Simmons, Dayton and Colorado are major universities which have been slapped with sanctions in recent years.

Most of these sanctions end this year. The University of Iowa was found guilty of the largest number of to fill a full page of typewritten copy. They included: 1. A football player who held a campus job during summer school and received pay for work he didn't perform. This happened in 1961.

2. A basketball player, holding an off-campus job, received a $75 advance from his employer and then dropped out of school before paying back the money. 3. A group of basketball players visiting the campus were given uniforms and permitted to practice with members of the university team, at times in presence of the coaches. 4.

HJ Jiit.ija Raymond Schroeder paced Pomona scoring with 19 points, followed by Mike Lindsey with 17. Score by quarters: Pomona. Melvern tacted at another institution without Iowa first contacting the athletic director of the other school. The council frowned on these acts but said, like a forgiving parent, that they "did not reflect any pattern and dlsre. gard for the governing rules of the association." Centenary was accused of transporting prospective basket.

ball players to the campus and back in a private company air. plane in violation of the sanity code. "It happened more than once," Byers said, but added that the school authorities had been most penitent arid cooperative in the investigations. Houston had its wrist slapped for transporting two football. players to the campus in a private plane.

This became a viola. tion when the representative failed to accompany the prospects, who wound up not enter. ing the school after all. Alabama was censured and reprimanded because its coach. es contacted a football player who was enrolled at another school without notifying the oth.

er school's athletic director. Alabama officials said it was a matter of misinterpretation of the words "student athlete" since the player in question had not competed at the other school but had entered merely to get proper credits. Washington State was cau. tioned for a similar violation in. volving a track athlete.

The punishment was lighter because Washington State reported the violation itself, Byers said. The day's biggest surprise was the relaxation of sanctions against Indiana.
