PCC Puts Washingtonlls That So?
On 2-Year Probation
By HAL WOOD
San Franciaco U.F9 Officials
t University of Washington co
operated in furnishing some of
the evidence that finally result
ed in Husky athletics being
placed on a two-year probation
by the Pacific Coast Conference
and given 'the equivalent of
$53,000 fine.
Commissioner Victor O
Schmidt said today that he fail
ed to get any cooperation, how
ever, out of the Greater Wash
ington Advertising fund the so-
called "slush fund" that helped
pay salaries to athletes at the
school.
The university and I both ask
ed the Greater Washington Ad
vertising fund for a list of the
names of athletes they had been
giving money," said Schmidt.
"But they refused to help us.'
As a result the organization
which received about $28,000
last summer to help finance
Husky athletes, has been banned
from further connection with the
school.
In a far-reaching decision,
faculty representatives in a two-
day session here over the week
end:
No Bowl Receipts
1. Banned Washington from
the Rose Bowl for two years
and eliminated the school from
a split of the Rose Bowl re
ceipts. Last year each school
received approximately $26,700
as its share of the net receipts
thus in two years the total fund
loss would be around the
$53,000 mark.
2. Made the school ineligible
for listing or consideration as
divisional or conference cham
pion in any sport, regardless of
what the actual record might be,
3. Ruled that Washington may
not participate in any NCAA
sponsored event. These would
be national championship NCAA
basketball, track and field and
baseball.
4. Banned the school from ap
pearing on any national-televi
sion program from its home
grounds.
5. Banned all contact between
tha alumnus R. C. (Torchy) Tor
rance in charga of the Greater
Washington Advertising Fund
and prospective students.
. Warned that if the "situa
tion" wasn't cleaned up at the
end of tha two-year probation-

ary period, it would be con

Another Breach
Schmidt said that is was the
University of Washington that
discovered another breach of
ethics the Evergreen Educa
tional foundation. This group,
contrary to the conference rules
lent money to athletes. Under
the rules, these funds must be
administered by the school.
The university officials have
the complete list of names of
the students receiving these
loans and these athletes will
be ineligible to compete until
such time as the loans have been
fully repaid. All the loans were
to football players.
"The university is going to
turn these names over to the
conference," said Schmidt. "Pro
fessor Donald Wollett, the Wash
ington faculty representative on
the PCC, took action himself to
declare these athletes ineligible.
The school became involved
in the "slush fund" when it was
revealed that school representa
tives know about the fund. These
included head football Coach
Johnny Cherberg and Athletic
Director Harvey Cassill, both of
whom have severed their con
nections.
The probationary period starts
Aug. 1, this year and ends July
1, 1358. The August date was
set this year to allow Washing
ton men to compete in the Olym
pic games trials.

in the rich Colonial Na
tional Invitation Golf tourna
ment, led a highly favored U.S.
team against the Canadians to
day in the fifth annual Interna
tional PGA matches.
And, if the host American
squad follows the pace its mem

play affair, all signs pointed to
ward a fifth straight walk-over
victory over their Canadian

For, with Souchak's powerful
par 280 and Bolt's 281 also-ran
figure, the aggregate medal
score of the six Americans who
competed was 47 strokes better
than that of the Canadians.
Only Stan Leonard, from Le

any appreciable inroads into the
fat prize package.
Leonard closed with a 286

It got its start generations ago,
when the wild animals first got
the careless habit of letting their
tracks lie around. In a hundred
seasons or so the tracks became
a flock of paths going in the
same general direction. Pretty
soon moccasined Indians "hove
into sight" and followed up the
example of the deer, bear and
cougar and now it s a moun
tain trail. It winds eighteen
miles to my cedar-shake cabin.
Every young sapling, regard
less of color, size or sex, wants
to be a fir when it grows up and
poke its crown into high heaven
and, if a snowslide comes tear

able to stand its ground. And
stand right there and keep on
talking to God.
A cotton tail," so I've heard
the owl say, "is just one scared
bunch of soft fur which jumps
provokingly under thorny sal

A mountain is Mt. Hood. She
reaches her white cone 12,000
feet and more into high heaven.
She's so grand that she doesn't
need man-inade sounds to get
her ideas across; she uses wind
and snow and sunshine, and now
and then an avalanche or two
when her thoughts' get too pon
derous and unwieldy.
A mountain lake is sky blue
and green and indigo. It lies
around and dreams and smiles
at the world in good sunshine.
The sky is mirrored in it, and
the lake sees, its image reflected
above that's why it smiles.
When the weather is roiled, it's
powerfully black and mean. .

It's hard to beat a caulked eight

strings.
A pack-horse is the meanest
punishment ever devised to in
flict upon mortal man. An aver
age cayuse can, let's say, get
his saddle bags off in 15 seconds,
and his whole harness off in an
abbreviated minute.
Rainbow trout are the smart
est concoction of slyness, speed
and gameness that was ever toss
ed together. He sure got what
he was driving for. When they're
in action, they are silver light
ning; when they're at rest, they
wiggle a fin now and again just
to be an the swim of things.
They're so indifferent that they
don't give a hang if a million
flies go by when they're not in
the exact mood for feeding.
If you want incentive to your
direction and sheer velocity to
your locomotion, get organized
with a hornet. One alone can
unsling a yard of stinger in a
split second. I've heard tell mud
is good but I've never stopped
to try.
Twilight is the hush hour of
nature, between a starlit sky
and a woods full of light. Some
times it lasts but a minute. The
silence is so portentous that you
sit tight as though you expected
a gun to go off.'
