Possibility of boycott looming
DES MOINES. Iowa (AP) —
Talk of boycotting c ollego has
kolhall games remains iust that,
but it's getting louder
Coaches across the country
are lining up behind the Blac k
Coaches Association, which is
spearheading the boycott move
ment but won't say when it
might happen.
And while support is by no
means unanimous, even those
who are reluctant to walk out
say they'd go along in a show of
unity.
"Sometimes you just have to
do what you have to do." Cali
fornia coach Todd Bozeman
said. "Whatever the coaches
decide. I'll abide by that deci
sion."
BCA director Rudv Washing
ton. the basketball coat h at
Drake, has said a boycott would
be likely and would involve
players as well as com lies It
could conceivably Inst the rest of
the season, he said
Coaches could act as early as
Saturday, which would coincide
with the birthday of slain civil
rights lender Martin Luther King
Jr Stopping games on a week
end also would knock a number
of featured matchups off televi
sion. depriving the NCAA of
revenue from those telex nsts
"With all the revenue generat
ed from basketball. I really
believe the coaches are holding
a couple of aces.” Oral Roberts
coach Hill Self said. "If it came
down to that, I think the NCAA
would be hurt by a boycott."
The boycott plan was trig
gered bv a vote at the NCAA
convention against restoring a
14th scholarship to Division I
men's basketball. Coaches react
ed bitterly to the vote, with the
BCA charging that minority ath
letes are hurt the most by cut
backs.
A reduction of one scholar
ship means .100 fewer opportu
nities. the BCA says, adding that
about two-thirds of that total
would likely be black.
Civil War still scheduled
Saturdays Oregon - Oregon
State men's basketball game will
be played despite talk of a boy
cott by the Blai k Couc hes Asso
ciation. Oregon Assistant Sports
Information Director Jamie
Klund said Thursday.
"As of right now. the game is
on, said Klund about the 200th
Civil War. si heduled to tipoff at
1 05 at Mc.Arthur Court
However. Klund added that
things could change when MCA
unveils ils plan of action, which
could come today or Saturday.
When the BCA announces what
form of protest, if any. to take
regarding the NCAA's refusal to
add a 14th scholarship. Oregon
will decide what to do
"We don't know what the
Black Coaches Association is
going to ask for," Klund said.
‘‘There are no guarantees we're
going to go along with that.”

against each other three times,
all resulting in ties
Helping the Ducks this season
are four returning seniors:
defensemen S< ott Auerbach and
Mark A Liebert. and forwards
Brian Clendenin and Steve
Melkerson In addition, fresh
man standout Greg Schutten
helm has joined the team.
"We ll be looking for much of
our scoring to come from Mark
(Liebert)," Clendenin said.
This year's team looks to be
built around strength, speed and
experience.
"Wo havo smaller and faster
players," Clendenin said. "So
we'll be more of a weaving loam,
and we'll take advantage of tbe
bigger teams. Our defensive
players are big and strong, but
quick."
The Ducks second year head
coach Paul Kuthurford brings
with him a lot of experience.
Kuthurford has played hockey
for most of his life and extended
his hockey i-areur after his senior
year of college, when he was
drafted by the New York
Islanders. Rutherford played for
one year in the Islanders farm
system at Richmond, Va.
Since his stint with the
Islanders organization, Ruthur
ford has taught hockey clinics,
played for the huge no Blues and
coached the Ducks.
"VVe'U play a solid defensive
style and take advantage of our
speed and playmaking abilities
up front." Ruthurford said. “It's
going to stem from our defense."
"All three of our lines will Ire
strong, and we're a young and
enthusiastic team with a lot of
heart." Clendenin said. "1 think
we'll do well against the
Huskies because we're faster
than them. For the season, our
toughest competition will come
from Idaho and San Jose State."
The Ducks’ hockey games
cost $2 for students and $3 for
adults. Come early — the aver
age attendance is about 1,100
people.

ber. before getting down to 177
pounds and defeating 3rd
