SIX The Newt, Frederick. December 1IH Maryland And Clemson Put On Probation' RICHMOND, Dec. 14. W)-- Southern Conference tonight put University of Maryland and Clemson College on probation for one year and, with two excep- tions. slapped a football schedule boycott against them.

Maryland and Clemson can play other conierences grid teams in games required by State statutes. And they may play each other under special concession made shortly after the probation vote was taken. The vote placing the two schools on probation and inflicting the football schedule boycott was 12-5. The action was taken because Maryland and Clemson violated conference regulations by accepting football bowl invitations without the approval. Earlier today, the conference voted 14-3 agamst granting permission to Maryland to play in the Sugar Bowl New Year's afternoon.

Afterwards, however. Dr. H. C. (Curly) Byrd, president of the University of Maryland, said his school planned to keep the engagement with Tennessee just the same.

The schedule boycott applies only to football and runs for the period of probation only. Maryland's 1952 grid schedule, already completed, includes contests with six conference teams, North Carolina. West Virginia. George Washington, Washington and Lee, North Carolina State an South Carolina. The Clemson-South Carolin game is an annual feature of th South Carolina State Fair and high lights "Big Thursday." The gam is fixed by the State Legislature and under terms of the resolution it may continue to be played.

After the 14-3 vote was an nounced. Maryland President Byr lost little time saying the unde feated Terps intended to keep their new year's appointment Tennessee whether the cenJen ence liked it or not. A roll call vote was taken im mediately after Dr. Byrd had completed a 26-minute address giving in detail hi? school's posi tion on the bowl Issue. He saic Maryland "acted in good a i in accordance with past confer ence procedures when it accepter the Sugar Bowl invitation.

Dr. Byrd met in a closed session with other presidents of the conference 17 schools a few min utes later.

But the Tigers went nhead and accepted anyway. Clemson's rase had not been brought before the annual meeting in today's session. Only South Carolina strung along with Maryland and Clemson in the voting. Acceptance of the bids by Maryland and Clemson defied a bowl ban voted by member school presidents last September 28 Dr. Byrd labeled the presidents' action on the bowl issue as "an afterthought." Was An Afterthoujrhl He said the September meeting at Chapel Hill, N.

"Then, as an afterthought, upon inquiry the commissioner (Wallace Wadei, the presidents expressed an intent to vote against giving permission for any school to participate in a bowl game on New Year's Day, 1952." Dr. Byrd said the meeting had "no validity." "The meeting had no legal status for the simple reason that a special meeting of the conference could only be 'held on tlje order of the president, pursuant to written request of not less than two-thirds of all members.

Byrd said, conference schools have played in 14 bowl games. In 11 of these, he added the consent of the conference has been requested at the annual meeting after acceptance of invitations. Among other things, the conference today passed an anti-bowl resolution. It also voted that a member institution may be suspended or expelled only upon a two-third vote of delegates eligible to vote and present at a regular or special meeting, A committee was appointed to draw up a list of dates limiting the seasons for various sports and adopted an amendment providing not more than 40 players be in uniform to compete in a football game. Two meetings will be held annually instead of one in the future.

It was voted to have unlimited membership In the conference. Previously, the league could have only 8 members. The conferenct worked on a new constitution, voted to put it into effect July 1, 1952.

Informed that the Southern Conference had refused to give Maryland permission to play the postseason football game. Zatarain said "knowing the of men that make up the organization Maryland, we expect them to play in accordance with the contract and agreement we have with them. "We are not too concerned about it (the confernce ban). We are not looking for any other teams. All we need now is more tickets.

Bob Neyland, in New Orleans for a Southeast Conference meeting, said "I certainly would hate to think that Tennessee will be denied the honor of playing Maryland.

Film--abe They Stand Accused- DuUoat IdtfO--Leave It to What's My Youth DiMaggio's Decision Wise By JOHNNY M0CALLUM NEA NEW YORK--(NEA)--If one Is to judge by the careers of past baseball immortals, Jbe DiMaggio could have hung around the big leagues lor a couple of more campaigns. But going by the form sheets, his decision to quit wan a wise move. "I want to get out before I start looking bad." ths Yankee Clipper confessed. "When baseball is no longer fun, is no longer a game.

I have played my last game of ball." Time, after 18 as a Yankee, had run out on him. shot-gun arm was gone. A former model of batting style, his timing was frightfully fur off pace. "Unquestionably. Joe could have gone another few years," said Moe Berg, who caught in the majors for 20 years, "but, by his standards, he had slipped and was too proud just to another ball player." the last link between the bright past fades Tecumseh Young didn't quit lintil he was 44.

His arm was as, good as ever, retired only when he became too round to field bunts, "But the kids are taking unfair advantage of the old man," Cy Young remarked. "They know this big stomach of mine makes it difficult for me to field bunts, so instead of swinging at my stuff, they are laying the ball down. When the third baseman has to start doing my work, it's time for the old man tr, quit." Cy Young and Joe DiMaggio were cut out of the same mold. They never asked any favors. And so, today and away.

Athletes come go and their story seldom varies from the.sten- ciled pattern as arms wear out. legs slow up, popularity wanes and injustice "Night baseball and injuries shortened Joe'x career three or four Jack Coffey. the former Braves' and Red Sox shortstop, said. "Otherwise, he might have gone on for I know what he went through." The veteran Fordham baseball coach and athletic director was also 37 when he retired from the game. "I was bothered by a bad left eye," he explained.

"The game was no longer fun." Dixie Walker, who stuck around i he was 33, put it another way. "The final two months of my last season were sheer torture," trie ex- Brooklyn favorite recalled. "My recuperative were gone. It was all I could do to pull myself out of bed and go to the ball park I still ached from yesterday's game." Tht flesh and the ardor There have been some antiques who cheated the sands of time, however. Posnibly it was their extended runs which led sentimentalist to believe DiMaggio would back up and take another crack at it.
