Face Crucial

Vikings
Meets after 3 5-29 Winner
Coach Harold Hauk's crew,
shaky victors over Corvallis
with a 35-29 margin, looked for
ward today to two more Big Six
league hurdles in store this
week.
Thursday, the Vikings travel
to Eugene to meet the Axemen
in Mc Arthur court. The game
will be broadcast to Salem fans
by direct wire over KOCO.
Saturday, the Haukman will
host the Bend Lava Bears for
their fourth Big Six league con
test. The meeting between the
Spartans and Vikings Tuesday
night was a slow, tedious af
fair with the only real action
of the contest packed into the
opening minutes of the first
period.
Corvallis went off to a 5-0
lead on field goals by Roy
Strand, a smooth-working, six
foot, three inch center, and
Gary Babeock. Strand also col
lected a free throw during the
early heat.
Wayne Walling, Vik for
ward, and Larry Chamberlain
tossed the Salem back into the
game, and Jim Rock, center
for the locals, shoved the
team out front at 7-6 by steal
ing the ball, dribbling the
length of the floor and netting
a two-pointer.
After that. Salem was never
in danger. The score at the end
of the first period was 13-9 for
the Vikings. They led 22-17 at
the half and 25-21 at the three
way buzzer..

Oregon Frosh Win
Test Cage Game
Under New Rule
Eugene, Ore., Jan. 18 (U.R)
The University of Oregon fresh
men won a 71-53 basketball
game here last night against the
independent team representing
the Oregon Lumber Sales in a
game staged as a test of the new
two-minute rule.
The test game called for a 15-
fouls-per-team limit with the op
posing team getting a bonus shot
for every foul over 15 committ
ed. The Frosh committed 14
fouls, but the Lumber Sales
squad fouled 21 times to give
Oregon six bonus shots in addi
tion to the regular free throws.
The foul limitation rule was
devised by Bob Burnett, assist
ant basketball coach at Stanford
university. Stanford freshmen
and Jayvees are playing some 40
games this year under the new
rule to give it a thorough test.
In the new rule, no player is
benched when he makes his
fifth foul. The rule has its strong
est effect near the end of the
game in that the losing team
would not deliberately foul an
opposing player for fear of hav
ing two points, instead of one,
scored against his team.

The dullest period was the

Feed Wild Ducks
Hundreds of wild ducks were scheduled to receive a
free meal at the expense of the Salem chapter of the
Izook Walton league Wednesday forenoon.
The ducks, cut off from their natural feeding grounds
along the South River road slough by snow and with the
water rapidly freezing over were found to be in distress.
The Walton leaguers volunteered to provide grain for
the fowl and Wednesday forenoon the first assignment
was due to be scattered by Rex Sonford, president of the
Salem chapter and Lloyd Reinholdt, long associated with
the wild life movement.
Since the present spell of weather may hang on for
some time, the job of feeding the thousands of ducks
will be an expensive one. In this connection the Walton
league is seeking financial assistance. Those wishing to
help are asked to leave contributions at White's feed
store, 265 State.

Rebel Colleges Charge
Sanity Code Unworkable
(ThU Is the second of thre dispatch- i
ta on the NCAA Santtr Code) souabbla.
Today's inM ailment gives the vlewa of the
sanity code s opponent.) ,
By STAN OPOTOWSKY
(United Press 8port Writer)
New York, Jan. 18 (U.R) The
southern bloc opposing the
NCAA sanity code as it exists to
day feels that the code simply
does not work.
The regulations are so strict,
the southerners say, that the na
tion's colleges are offered only
two real choices to violate the
code openly or to violate it on
the sly.
One stipulation in the sanity
code is that a needy athlete
end somehow they are aU "nee
dy" must work for any money
he needs for room and board
while attending college. That
sounds fine, but President Col
gate Darden of the University of
Virginia points out, "A football
player simply does not have
enough time to attend classes,
study, practice football and
work. We all know what a
time-consuming thing football
has become."
Bill Alexander, veteran ath
letic director at Georgia Tech,
feels the same way.
"The absolute minimum a
man can spend is $77.78 a
month at Georgia Tech. He
is in class until the afternoon.
He practices football until 6
or 6:30. He studies at night.
"Under the sanity code, where
can he get the money? I'll tell
you where it's a 'gift' Job from
the alumni or the phoney state
highway department jobs. Is
that the spirit of the sanity
code?" '
The chief opponents of the
sanity code are the Southern
conference and the Southwest
ern conference. They say they
do not want an "open market,
sky's the limit" type of football,
but they want a realistic plan
where any athlete can at least
get free room and board. Under
the sanity code, room and
board must not be paid for the
athlete.

STRAIGHT BOUBBOH WHISKEl
Several years ago the
Southeastern conference made
a daring decision: It would
attempt to cut out hypocrisy
and cut-throat competition by
making a set or rules which
took into consideration the
value of football stars.
It allowed each school to cay
a boy $15 a month CASH for in
cidental expenses as well as his
room, board and tuition. A
scream of professionalism rock
ed the plan, and it eventually
was scuttled when the NCAA
adopted the strict sanity code,
The southern bloc insists it is
for sanity, but not for this code.
This gives rise to the question,
how much do football players ac
tually get paid? From inside
sources, that will be taken up to
morrow.

NCAA Bars Violators From
Sponsored Slates and Meets
Chicago, Jan. 18 m The Na
tional Intercollegiate Athletic
conference set about proving to
day that it has teeth in its bite
after all. It snapped back again
at six violators of its sanity code
Virginia, 'Virginia Tech, Vir
ginia Military Institute, Mary
land, Boston college and Villa
nova. They are barred from sched
ules and NCAA sponsored meets
under the organization s consti
tution. It is as simple as that.
At least, that is what the new
NCAA president, Hugh C. Wil
lett, of Southern California and
Secretary-Treasurer K. L. (Tug)
Wilson, Big Ten commission,
think.
It Is all a matter of remind
ing NCAA members that they
brush up on the constitution and
abide by what it says in black
and white the "conditions and
obligations of membership"
clause. This requires that mem
bers schedule Intercollegiate
contests "only with institutions
which conduct their Athletic
programs In conformity with
the principles set forth In article
three (the sanity code)."
After a stormy New York
convention,last week, many ob
servers wondered where the
NCAA's teeth were. Seven
schools were branded as code
violators, a charge which they
admitted. When it came down
to voting about their expulsion,
they survived by a margin of
25 ballots.
