! r 1 Wott SOT Ffliraess $5500 Clipped Off Washington Oregon Gets $1390, Oregon State S120 Br Bum Newland PORTLAND, June 16 -(P)-Top-ped by a $5,500 assessment against the University of Washington, the stiffest fines in the history of the Pacific Coast conference were levied today against member schools for athletic code violations. Faculty' representatives threw the book at some offenders in an effort to put the athletic morals of the conference on the highest plane possible. All ten member in stitutions were fined varying amounts for the third successive year. . , The University of Idaho re ceived the second largest fine 14,010. Washington State college drew a penalty of $3,720 and Stan ford university $2,890. The Univ ersity of Southern California was charged $2,370 and the University of Oregon $1,390. Lesser fines were set as follows: University of California at Los Angeles, $555; University of California, $350; University of Montana, $200; Ore gon State college $120. It was the second straight year that Washington headed the list, being fined $3,550 in 1948. Individual cases and reasons for penalties against each school were not made public. The Infractions covered 26 categories, from sal ary to an athlete for working on a mythical Job to Illegal recruiting by alumni. Some violations were technical, such as irregularities in bookkeeping, but the faculty men "went along almost unanimously with the findings -of Commissioner Victor O. Schmidt. Assessment of the fines, which go Into the conference treasury, was the final" action of the three day convention. Earlier today the convention awarded the 1050 track and field meet to the Uni versity of California, for May 28 17; and moved up the football practice season to a full 18 calen dar days before the first game when the season starts before Sept. 18. Until now practice be gan Sept 1. The conference voted to pro hibit televising of official motion pictures of conference-sponsored athletic events. Individual schools, however, may contract for direct televising. The annual winter meeting was set for La Playa hotel, Carmel, Calif., Dec. 11-14. The code violation fines totalled 821.105 well above last year's $8,150. Commissioner Schmidt ex plained that penalties were upped considerably in cases of repeat violations. "Our code la stricter that the National Collegiate Ath letic, association sanity code," he said. "Many of the violations for which Pacific Coast conference - members were fined would not be regarded as such by the NCAA." Aggressive alumni and support er who pursued athletic talent for old alma mater were singled out as unidentified pests to the con ference's peace of mind.

Such was the way the dopesters viewed the 2$th annual cinderpath carnival Friday and Saturday afternoons as athletes by the score continued to arrive in Los Angelea today. i Seventy-fire universities and colleges have entered contestants in a field exceeding 300. Number ed are nearly a score of lads who competed"" Tor Uncle Sam in the 1948 Olympic games at London. Unbeaten n dual meet compet ition, Michigan State and USC battled to a 61-61 tie here last April 16 in one of the best meets of the season. Loral observers un hesitatingly pick the Trojans to bag their 13th national champion ship, with Michigan State runner up and the undermanned defend ing titleholders. Minnesota, to finish far down the line. Spearheading the Trojan team, of course, is sprinter Mel Patton, who figures to score a double vic tory for 20 points in the 100 and 220 yard dashes. Much will depend on pole vaulter John Montgomery, whose best mark of 14 feet IS inches tops the best in the country this season. A mishap, or an exception al effort by two-time defending champion, George Rasmussen of Oregon, or Tom Bennett of Wis consin, would throw the Trojan hopes into a knot.
