XU.R) Luke Sew ell set his sights on a first divi sion finish for his Cincinnati Reds Friday, but said he wasn't thinking in terms of the pennant. T don't think we have enough power to go that far," he declar ed, "but my team definitely is improved over last year. If we can avoid injuries I think we have a chance to finish third." He said he couldn't see any team beating out Brooklyn or New York." Ranked One, Two "I rank them one, two al though not necessarily in that order, and either the Dodgers or Giants should win it. "After them I group the Car dinals, Braves, Phillies and Reds, with the possibility that any of those four teams could finish as high as third Br as low as sixth. Behind those six clubs it's a tossup, in my mind, be tween the Cubs and Pirates for seventh and eighth place." Sewell said he was more opti mistic this year than in his pre vious two seasons as manager of the Reds.

Subsidization Seen Possible Under ACE Code Chicago 4U.R) Some athletic officials fear that the American Council on Education's proposed code of conduct would result in wide open subsidization of ath letes. . .... Numerous Midwest faculty ad visers and athletic directors have become vigorous opponents of the code for this reason. Their opinion probably will be reflect ed in action by numerous con ferences to adopt or ignore the college president's suggestions. Legal advisors contend that section V-B of the president's code would allow recruiting on an unrestricted plane. The section reads "institutions shall award . . . scholarships and grants in aid to the fundamental basis of demonstrated academic ability and economic need. Prom ise of superior performance in extra-curricular activities, in cluding athletics, may be one of the factors considered in award ing scholarships and grants . in aid."
