eft the Los Angeles area in a
turmoil.
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.
Cal and UCLA Together
As matters now stand, South
ern California and UCLA are ex
pected to vote for lifting sanc
tions against athletes pending a
revision of the code, with Chan
cellor Raymond B. Allen casting
the ballot for the Bruins.

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.

-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.

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."

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,

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

again, the Bees were at the tail
end of the three-eye hive by 241-4

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.
