HOUSTON. Tex. Iff! Southwest
Conference faculty representatives
Saturday slapped a two-year pro
bation on Texas A&M for recruit
in nolicy violations. It was the
stiffest penalty in conierence nis-
tory.
Letters of intent signed for A&M
by prospective athletes since April
15 also were canceled, releasing an
unknown number of high school
seniors to enroll at other confer
ence schools if they so desire.
The conference also banned post
season contests by Aggie athletic
teams.
Details Withheld
No details of the rules violations
were released. '
In a prepared statement, the con
ference governing body said A&M
coaches and alumni have violated
recruiting rules despite previous
warnings.
"After careful deliberation the
conference concluded that to mi'
prove recruiting practices more
drastic action than lurtner warn
ings was necessary," the statement
said.
"I'm shocked. said Bear Bry
ant. A&M athletic director and
head football coach.
Bryant said the cancellation of
letters of intent will hurt the Aggie
recruiting program "to a certain
extent."
Good Frosh Sqnad
'But we have a fine freshman
squad which will carry us through
1955." he said.
Under conference rules, an ath
lete. can sign letters of intent to
attend a school and thereafter oth
er conference schools cannot con
tact him. This is intended to re-.
lieve pressure on the athletes.
Interest in the Aggie athletic pro
gram has zoomed since Bryant
moved there last year from Ken
tucky. The Aggies last fall had
their largest freshman football
squad in history and another
