UCLA, Washington Placed on Probation, Censured by NCAA for Grid Violations Denver (U.R) National Col legiate Athletic association of ficials levelled the most severe critical analysis in its history Tuesday at two Pacific Coast conference members UCLA and the University of Washington and followed up with Just as drastic punishments. Although the NCAA's 18-man council did not mete as strong punishment as the two schools had already received from their conference, It made it quite plain that coaches and booster groups at both institutions operated knowingly against the rules in subsidizing and making loans to athletes. UCLA was placed on three years' probation by the NCAA, while Washington received two years' probation. During the probation, neither University will be "eligible to enter athletes for teams in na tional collegiate championship competition and those invitation al and like events which cooper ate with the NCAA with the ad ministration of its enforcement program." Additionally, neither school will be eligible to participate in the national television series ad ministered by the association, "except for an existing contrac tual committment for the 1956 season." UCLA thus will be al lowed to meet USC in "their na tional televised game next No vember. Sanders Rapped The NCAA also reprimanded and censured UCLA for the ac tivities of its head football coach, Henry H. (Red) Sanders, and members of his staff for their "acquiesence and coopera tion with the activities of the Young Men's club" of Westwood Village. UCLA's punishment resulted from what the council termed "violation" of the NCAA consti tution in that two booster or ganizations, the Young Men's club and the Bruin Bench, aided student athletes in an improper manner to the knowledge of the UCLA athletic staff. In the Washington case, the council pointed out that a fund known as the Greater Washing ton Advertising fund was "used to nrovide financial assistance to student-athletes" in the form of periodic cash payments without obligation for repayment and that the Evergreen Educational foundation also loaned money to student athletes in violation of NCAA rules. Also, it was pointed out that former Washington head football Coach John Cherberg,' since re signed made "personal loans to football dayers in amounts ranging from $10 to $100" in violation of NCAA regulations.
