"I am wondering i it might not be a good plan to consider the forming of a confer ence, leaving out the two univer sities in Washington, the two in Oregon and the one in Idaho." The governor pointed out that the present day booster clubs have been composed of "all the com munity leaders with whom the professors fraternize and the com munity leaders from whom tliev ask university financial support. '' He said he played rugby football at Stanford "and I can assure you that if some prominent alum nus had approached me with an offer of modest assitance in my tuition or expenses 1 would have assumed that this prominent alumnus was a man of character and standing in the community and that this proposition had the tacit approval of those in author ity." BERKELEY, Calif. I The Presidents' Council of the Pacific Coast Conference will meet July 17 to review penalties against four members for illegal overpay ments to football players.

California was fined and placed on probation but Cat was not banned from the Rose Bowl. Dr. Fred Fagg of USC and Chancellor Raymond B. Allen of UCLA insist the conference code should be" revised and the pun. ishmenls lessened. Fagg called the code unrealistic. Allen labelled it "archaic." OAKLAND, Calif. IJI The Na tional Collegiate Athletic Assn. (NCAA), riding body of the na tion's college sports, is officially investigating the current row over payoffs to athletes in the Pacific Coast Conference, it was learned Thursday. Commissioner Victor O. Schmidt of the PCC told the Oakland Tri bune the NCAA had requested and received detailed information on the UCLA and University of Wash ington cases.
