"We even ran defensive drills without a ball just to get the players set.

"They pull their guards on wide off the T-formation and we had our linebackers concentrate on watching the guards so they were not faked into the line when the ball went wide."

4 (AP) Two towering brothers who moved from Joppa, 111., to Seymour were ruled ineligible by the Indiana High School Athletic Assn todav on the ground that undue influence was used. The athletes are Billy Joe Stevenson, 6 feet 6V2, and his brother, Frank, 6 feet 5. Billy Joe was a basketball star as a freshman at Joppa last year, and Frank, a freshman this year, also was considered a talented player. The IHSAA placed Seymour Higb School on probation until next Oct. 1.

The Stevensons are Negroes The boys' mother, Mrs. Joe Ste venson, said previously that they moved because school officials at Joppa had not lived up to promises to help Stevenson find a 10b. The situation started to develop in June when John Pennybaker of Seymour, who said he was a cousin of Mrs. Stevenson, visited the family in Joppa and learned that Stevenson needed a better job and might be interested in Sey mour. The IHSAA said its investiga tion disclosed these events: Pennybaker sent Stevenson cashier's check for S30 as expense money for the family to drive to Seymour and look the situation over.

The Stevensons showed the check to Joppa school officials, a'ong with the names of persons they understood they were to contact for assistasce when they reached Seymour. Rodney C.
