Southern California
Appeal Turned Down
New Orleans - (UP& - The
NCAA made plans today to
appoint a "select committee"
to study possibilities of a na
tional letter of intent and all
phases 67 the recruiting and
financial aid program of U.S.
colleges.
The NCAA council, which
voted to form the committee
at its annual three-day spring
meeting in New Orleans, will
pick members for the commit
tee from college presidents,
faculty and athletic directors.
The national letter of in
tent has many proponents,
said Walter Byers, NCAA ex
ecutive director. He reported
most of the Southeastern con
ference coaches are strong ad
vocates of it.
"Many people think such
a letter of intent would elim
inate last-minute recruiting,"
Byers said.
Proponents of the national
letter of intent believe it
would prevent one school
from signing an athlete, only
to have another school lure
him away.
Byers said the study of re
cruiting and financial aid did
not mean anything was wrong
with present rules and regula
tions governing those matters.
New Orleans-(UPD-The Uni
versity of Southern California
and Georgia State Teachers
College have felt the sting of
NCAA disciplines, and other
schools charged with athletic
infractions may be dealt with
today.
. The 18-member policy-di
recting NCAA council, which
ends its three-day spring meet
ing in New Orleans today,
Tuesday rejected "USC's ap
peal to have NCAA-imposed
penalties reduced. The Cali
fornia school was charged
last Jan. 7 with illegal re
cruiting practices while it al
ready was on two-year proba
tion for illegal aid to athletes.
Georgia State Teachers,
which resigned last March
while the NCAA infractions
ommittee was investigating
the school, is charged with
permitting two athletes to
play inter-collegjate basket
ball after they had signed pro
fessional baseball contracts.
Walter Byers, NCAA execu
tive director, said member in
stitutions would be advised
of Georgia State's failure to
abide by NCAA rules and
urged not to compete against
teams from that college.
Dr. Norman Topping, USC
president, received the NCAA
ruling with "a deep sense of
disappointment."
USC has been placed on
two-year probation and barred
from participation in all
NCAA championship events
for the first year of the pro
bation. It also is outlawed
from appearing in any televi
sion events which are NCAA
controlled.
Byers said the council to
day is studying other cases
received 'from the infractions
committee. The schools in
volved have not been named,
but he reported cases are
pending against 16 other col
lege or universities.

Kentucky Derby Entries
Dwindle Following Trial
Races Held on Tuesday
By RAY AYRES
Louisville, Ky.- (UPD -What
once looked like a record field
for the 85th running of the
Kentucky Derby on Saturday
shaped up with only 16 start
ers today following victories
by Open View and First Land
ing in divisions of the Derby
Trial Tuesday.
Open View raced to a head
victory in the first section of
the split stakes while First
Landing scored by a full
length in the second, discour
aging several of the horses
which chased them home.
Out came Cain Hoy Stable's
Hoist Away, Bernmattar,
jointly owned by G. M. Holt
singer and Doug Davis Jr.,
and Llangollen Farm's Mosby,
who finished sixth, seventh
and eighth behind Open View.
And after Master Palynclj
trailed First Landing in the
second section trainer Elmer
Kalensky picked up from the
jockeys' quarters the silks of
owners Ben Hatskin and Sam
Sair. Steno Bill, the only
horse Master Palynch beat,
never was considered a Derby
starter.
In addition to Open View
and First Landing, that left
Silver Spoon, Easy Spur,
Sword Dancer, Tomy Lee,
Finnegan, Troilus, Our Dad,
Atoll, Royal Orbit, Dunce,
The Chosen One, John Bruce,
Rico Tesio and Quantrell still
in America's glamor race
First Landing's clocking of
1:36 1-5 in the Trial failed to
match the 1:35 3-5 of Open
View - third fastest in the
history of the race. Neverthe
less First Landing loomed as
probable favorite for the Rose
Run, although he may be bet
ter than 2-1 at post time.
Tomy Lee loomed as second
choice behind First Landing
with Sword Dancer third. But
the betting was expected to
be widespread for John Bruce
and Our Dad were full of run
in the stretch in one section
of the Trial while Finnegan
and Rico Tesio made big
moves in the straight-away in
the other.
The entire picture has
