nrvLTR MroroRD (ohegohj mail tribune TuMday, July 10, 1958 USC Alumni Propose Divorce If Penalties Not Lessened Lot Angeles (U.Ri Univer sity of Southern California alum ni today proposed that unless presidents of Pacific Coast Con ference schools modify the pen alty against their school the Tro jans should leave the confer ence. Although dozen of secret meetings of alumni groups both of UCLA and Southern Califor nia were reported, no overt steps were taken by the graduates who for the time pinned their hopes on the stand of USC's Fresident Fred D. Fagg Jr. Fagg said as a member of the , president s council he will pro pose a "re-examination of all sanctions taken against member schools particularly individual aihletes' who have not been re sponsible for the present situa- : tion." Public indignation was indi cated by the action of the Los Angeles Herald-Express, which printed a ballot on its front page for readers Jo vote on the question "Should SC and UCLA quit PCC?" , Feelings against the confer ence had been high when UCLA was slapped with fines of S95, 000, banned from the Rose Bowl for three years and penalized a year of eligibility for all its foot ball players. But the feeling of bitterness reached a new high with the week-end announcement South ern California had been fined $53,400, banned from the Rose Bowl for two years and 42 of SPORTS its football squad members pe nalized a year's eligibility. With the S25.000 fine levied against California and the S52,- 000 assessed against Washington, the conference has slapped fines 01 5235,000 against the four schools. "If the conference refuses to adopt a new, realistic program, I say we should get out," de clared Jim Hardy, former star quarterback for the Trojans and later in the National Pro Foot ball league. All-America halfback Jon Ar r.ett, expected to be the main stay of the 1956 team, bitterly declared he would never recom mend to a youngster that he enter a PCC school. Arnett be lieves he is among those hit by the eligibility ban and said if it's true he may go to Canada to play pro ball.

Ten more entries in the all woman air race landed at Bishop Field here yesterday to boost the number of finishers to 16. The 32 contestants who have not finished were reported scat tered across the country at night fall when the little snips are forced to bed down for the night since no night flying is per mitted.

Rose Chairman The conference rule , drew criticism from another quarter as Lathrop K. Keishman, foot ball chairman of the Tourna ment of Roses Association, said the Rose Bowl game would suf fer because of the ban against UCLA, USC and Washington. "It seems extremely unfortu nate that the Rose Bowl game should be included in the penal ties." he said. "I hope when the PCC presidents review these cases they will lift the Rose Bowl bans." USC Coach Jess Hill's reac tion was that it was "regrettable that so many fine young men should lose their eligibility." Deputy Dist. Atty. J. Miller RYAN DIES Sacramento, Calif. (U.R) John Buddy Ryan, who played for Boston and Cleveland in the American League, and later : served as manager of Sacta mento in the Pacific Coast League, died at the age of 70 : Monday.

Harms Jr. I presented the 5000 meter champ with a key to the city and Uni versity of Oregon President O. Meredith Wilson praised him as en athlete of the highest cali ber, both on the field of com petition'and in the classroom. Coach Bill Bowerman, Dellin ger's tutor at Oregon, presented the American 5000 meter record holder with a watch on behalf of his teammates, recognition of his being named the outstanding track performer of the year at Oregon. Bowerman predicted that Del linger would some day crack the four-minute barrier in the mile and expressed the hope that he would find time to run that event in the future. "I think his greatest races are ahead of him," Bowerman said in reference to the man who will represent the United States in the gruelling distance at Mel bourne, Australia, in November.

Champ High In Publinks San Francisco (U.R) Sad Sam Kocsis, for a decade one of the top ' public links golfers in the nation, goes out today in the second round of qualifying for the national public links cham pionship to see if he can win the right to defend his 1955 title in match play. The Detroit star, brother of former Walker Cup ace Stan Kocsis, shot a ballooning 77 Monday in the first round and trailed the first day leaders by eight strokes. "But I promise that I'll shoot better today," he said before teeing off on the damp and dank Harding Park course that won a battle of par from 146 out of 150 shotmakers Monday. The first day leader turned out to be chunky Scotty Mc Beath, a sporting goods salesman from Palo Alto, Calif., who has been one of the top amateurs in Northern California for several years. He shot a 34-35-69, the only man in the crowd able to crack the magic 70 mark on a course that read 36-36 72 for par. Only three men besides Mc Beath were able to crack par.

Rangy, brown-haired Luedee declared, "I should have knocked him out last night, but I was concentrating so much on my new left hook to the body that I didn't use my right enough, par ticularly with one-twos. I'll take him out next time." It was Troy's 33rd victory in 39 fights, and Luedee's third de feat in 23. -MMEST. WMISKEV EOT DOT LAg!
