While numerous alumni and football boosters in the South land called for a softer set of rules fir else. Gov. Goodwin J. Knight of California stepped in by proposing that 1he four schools in this state jump the PCC and form their own loop. In the meantime, Oregon State a heretofore unsullied school presumably in favor of strict compliance figured in allega tions that side payments also exist there. Richard Dietmeier, a Peta luna. Calif., salesman, said he was told by football coach Tom my Prothro last February that there were "some jobs down town that some of the boys qual ify for.'' and "about 19'' on the Beaver squad were getting such help. Dietmeier said he was so informed while checking to see if his son. Mike, could be en rolled there. Prothro, denying Dietmeier's statements, said lie turned the boy down for a schol arship after watching him in high school game films.

Bruin Club Asks PCC Arhleres-Th San Francisco U.R. The San i i Francisco Men's Bruin Club, a UCLA alumni group, has asked j the Pacific Coast Conference to ! "adopt a more realistic philos-! ophy to allow- athletes to meet j their costs of liv ing while carry-1 ing on a normal university pro- j gram."' The organization gave its stand in a 10-point program on the eve of today's PCC meeting, at which the presidenls' council will decide whether lo suspend penalities imposed on UCLA, Washington, USC and California. One point declared "UCLA supports the suggestion that in eligibility of individual athletes Forgiveness For ey Were 'Lulled' be suspended until a new, fair and workable code can be written." However, the group pointed out it "does not condone" code violations. It characterized illegal hand outs to athletes as "financial as sistance which was given young athletes ... by well-meaning and enthusiastic friends of the university, even if ill-advised, who thereby lulled young stu dents in accepting such aid." The statement said that penal izing an athlete a year of eligi bility for such infractions is "harsh and unfair'' and punishes the victim rather than correcting the cause. i USDFOCStTRIBUn I 9-64 133. -iingst! Oregon. Oregon State. Washing ton State and Idaho State have said in the past they favor tight regulation. The matter came to a head on July 8 when Southern Cali fornia was fined the equivalent of S63.400, banned from the Rose Bowl for two years, and 42 members of its football squad penalized one year of eligibility after the school admitted to charges of under the cover pay ments. Fagg announced on the same day that USC would take an ac tive part in bringing about the "earliest possible revision" of the code. UCLA. Washington and Cali fornia are the other schools which have been severely dealt with this year after pleading guilty to illegalities. The Bruins were fined the equivalent the 5178,000, barred from the Rose Bowl for three years, and saw their football squad lose one year of eligibility. Washington was barred from the bowl for two years and docked about S52.000. California was fined S25.000 for loans made by Coach Lynn Waldorf to football players. Cal and Washington have taken their medicine quietly. Sport Parade By OSCAR FRALEY United Press Sports Writer Dietmeir Accuses, Prothro Ansvers For Oreqon State Petaluma, Calif. (U.R) Rich ard Dietmeier, a Petaluma sales man, said Monday that Oregon State Coach Tommy Prothro mentioned extra financial help for Dietmeier's son if the latter made the team. Dietmeier made his assertion on the eve of a meeting of the Pacific Coast conference presi dents council to discuss whether it will lift penalties against Washington. UCLA and South ern California for illegal hand outs to athletes. Dietmeier said he talked to Prothro in Corvallis. last Febru ary about the possibilities of sending his son, Mike, up there. "After we had discussed the tuition and grants in aid, Prothro told me there also were some jobs downtown 'that some of the boys qualify for." Dietmeier says he doesn't re call whether Prothro said the salary for such employment was S25 or S40 per month. "At no time did Prothro actu ally make me such an offer." Dietmeier said. "But as I re member it, he said that about 19 members of the squad were holding such jobs." Dietmeier said that Prothro then wrote to Bill Abbey, coach of Petaluma High school, for some game films of Mike that after viewing them decided not to recommend the boy for a scholarship. Prothro, advised of Diet meier's statement, said that the father is "mixed up' and that there is no group in Corvallis making any extra payments to athletes. "My statement still stands," Dietmeier said. "I would not have made it otherwise." New York vU.R; The New j back of the Dallas Eagles. Natur ally, eagles are scouts, and Cus-1 ter is revenged and lo, the poor ' Indians. j All that the Burlington, Iowa, j Bees have to buzz about is that they play a split season. When the first half of the campaign J ended, and they started all over ' York Yankees may be in a class by themselves, as the American league stand ings attest to day, but don't get the idea that the batter ed Kansas City Athletics are the worst team in baseball. The Yanks, known vari- Oicar Fraley ously as the Bionx Bombers, the Stengeleers and by various other descrip tions in the seven other league cities, enjoy the greatest pros perity in the game with their 10-game lead. Yet the As. 26 games back, can take dubious solace in the knowledge that there are teams in organized baseball which are even worse off. Three of them, as a matter of fact, although one already has given up the ghost as well as the franchise. Before Kansas City sends the A s back to Philadelphia, or re adopts the old-time nickname of "Blues." they can take it from Tijuana. Bakersfield and Okla homa City that being "only" 26 games back is playing pretty good baseball. Tijuana Gives Up Tijuana, in the Arizona-Mexico league, was 331. 2 games back of the leading Cananea Mineros when it decided that el beisbol was strictly for the Norteameri-! canos. They just quit the whole j darned business. ' The Bakersfield Boosters have , been doing just that to the rest of the California league. They helped boost Fresno's Cardinals 29 1 2 games ahead of themselves ' at last available accounts. Out thar in Oklahoma City, pardner. the Indians did a little bit of all right when the arid, , useless land they received from ; the Great White Father turned ; out to be floating on oil. But the palefaces are getting even i this season. Those thar Injuns of 1 the Texas league are 291. 2 games i again, the Bees were at the tail end of the three-eye hive by 241-4 games. Proving that there is something for which to be thank ful, even in adversity. Imagine if they didn't play a split sea son. Beaumont Almost "Exported" Beaumont's nine is known as the "Exporters," and they al most were exported as they trailed Corpus Christi by 211s games in the Big State league. Corpus goes under the nickname of "Clippers" and the folks in Beaumont contend the enemy originated the brush haircut. Still, while there may be so lace of a sort for the "A's" or "Blues," as you will, nobody in all baseball was approaching that 10-game Yankee lead. But the rest of the American league was coining a phrase to go with "Remember the Alamo" and "Remember the Maine." It was "Remember the Brooklyn Dodgers of 1951." That year the Brooks blew a 132 game lead and the pennant. It was. how ever a different league, Al-phonse. Daily's U-Drive Medford Airport Corvallis (U.R) Oregon State College Football Coach Tommy Prothro Monday brand ed as "false" a statement that he had offered Mike Dietmeier of Petaluma, Calif., "something ex tra" if he qualified for the OSC football team. In fact, Prothro said that after he had seen movies of Dietmeier sent him by Bill Abbey, football coach at Petaluma High school, he returned the movies and said "Dietmeier doesn't look like what we're looking for." Dick Dietmeier, a Petaluma toy manufacturer, had said that Prothro had indicated his son, Mike, might receive "extra" pay- fl 1 m "W DRVE WITH Valie....

Long Signs Sugar Bowl Race Bar New Orleans (U.R) Louisi ana's national athletic outlook was dimmed today in the face of a new law banning racially mixed competition in the state. Gov. Earl Long signed into law Monday night a bill outlaw ing any events, amateur or pre fessional, between white and Negro players. The president of the Sugar Bowl classic at New Orleans said after the signing his group would try to live with the new law. The executive committee of the Mid-Winter Sports asso ciation previously warned the governor his signature on the bill would seriously hurt the Sugar Bowl. lithians, NG Victors Walt's Lithia Motors and Na tional Guard came out victorious in Jackson County Softball as sociation play at the high school field last night.

Prothro, recalling that the father, Dick Dietmeier, had stopped in Corvallis once and talked to him, said: "I did not promise extra aid to the boy's father." He said he had never seen the boy except onlhe film sent by Coach Abbey. And he said he wrote Abbey after seeing the movies: "Thanks for the movies. They are being returned and Diet meier doesn't look like what we're looking for."
