New officers are to be installed by outgoing President Fire GuUty Coaches, Advises Hollis Kl IHIead Says PVexies ley to Solving Abuses PORTLAND LT Abuses, in recruiting college athletes will not be cleaned up until school presi dents have the courage and author ity to fire coaches for violating the spirit as well as the letter of the law. So said Dean Orlando J. Hollis of the University oZ Oregon law school and president of the Pacific Coast Conference here Wednesday at a meeting of the Northwest Association o f Secondary and Higher Schools. His position was supported by Dr. A. Ray Olpin, president of the University of Utah, who said "most of the evils of intercollegiate athletics are associ ted with re lentless proselyting and reckless subsidizing of players." Dr. Hollis said "you can write stuff in books and talk to groups and lecture athletics staffs until you are black in the face," but enforcement is in the president's office.! Fines Net Eaeuga He added, "if the president has n't stamina enough or is not free to fire for viola ons nothing is going to happen. Expulsions and fines won't do it." He urged leadership of alumni organizations by men interested In education "instead of by small groups of wild men who take no other Interest In institutions except athletics." He said colleges were dodging reality with words and pointed out that the term grant-in-aid had been substituted for the words athletic scholarships. Such grants in tuition and fees range from $75 to $600, he said. Douglas Chambers.

Goriest GeneraGrid TurnoutsEqual Figuresof'51 NEW YORK Ofl The South and the Midlands kept college foot ball attendance on an even keel during the 1952 I season although declines were registered in nearly every other region. The annual Associated Press sur vey of attendance at major games revealed Wednesday .that the crowds increased by a whopping margin in the Southern. Southeast ern. Big Seven and Missouri Val ley Conferences. And the unorgan ized Eastern independent", showed a decline of 1.49 per cent. The av erage crowd per game was small er by 378 cash customers. Those figures are so small they probably can be disregarded, since some colleges furnished only "round number estimates of their crowds and since only conference members were counted .outside the East. The biggest declines in attend ance were noted on the- Pacific Coast and among the Eastern in dependents. Over all attendance for the Pacific Coast Conference was down almost 15 .per cent in spite of some huge turnouts, a drop that left the experts scratching their heads to find explanations. In the East, attendance as a whole declined 9.49 per cent al though the Ivy League colleges lost only 5.67 per cent. Southern California, the Coast champion.- recorded a total of 242,466 for six games as com pared to 254,238 last year. That was mainly because UCLA was the home team .for their annual clash, which drew 96,689, and the over-all total wa n't affected. Stanford another big loser pointed to a similar switch in the locale of the big game" against California but also blamed tele vising the Michigan game for a drop from the . estimated 65,000 to the 35,000 who actually attended.

"But for -.several years the in come has been holding at the same level while expenses have been doubling and tripling. Region al associations also are feeling the financial pinch, with a number of them in the red." i Ferris said there Is a "good sur plus m the Olympic fund, which will be held over as a nest egg for the next Olympics.
