Plan 1960 Play
Tidwell, who is vacationing
here, stressed that he could
"not speak for the league or
as representative of
the league." .
"But I can tell you we are
making definite plans to play
m 1960," he said.
Tidwell, 34-year-old Birm
ingham, Ala., estate counselor
who starred at quarterback
for Auburn, said that the
league as first discussed had
been called the "Mid-America
Professional Football league
"But it has mushroomed be
yond that how and is truly
national in scope," he said.
Tidwell said the league
would have a "minimum" of
10 teams and "probably" 12,
divided into two divisions.
Tidwell declined to identify
any of the cities being consid
ered "because everybody has
to be considered" or any of
the persons involved in the
promotion. But he said that
some of the same people"
who are behind the new Con
tinental major baseball league
are backing the new pro foot
ball league.
"Our plans have been de
layed because of the baseball
league," he said, "on the
theory of first things first."
OTI's Athletic
Progress Brings
Commendation
Ashland-Dr. Winston Pur-
vine, director of Oregon Tech
nical Institute was commend
ed by Oregon Collegiate con
ference officials yesterday for
the progress made by the Kla
math Falls school in resolving
its athletic problems.
Purvine, on his own voli
tion, read a report on OTI ath
letics at a special morning
meeting here of the OCC. The
report told what has been
done at the school since the
1958 football season when
OTI ran afoul of conference
eligibility regulations.
OTI hadvthe top grid club
of the conference last fall but
gave up its title when it saw
that it had played four men
who had passing grades in an
insufficient number of hours
Purvine in Charge
Purvine yesterday reported
that the individual in the reg
istrars' office at the time who
had charge of athletic records
was not informed as to the
exact rules of the league
Now, Purvine, himself, is in
charge of these records, re
quirements and procedures
and has an advisory commit
tee to work with him. This is
a step in the direction other
members of the OCC are fol
lowing.
The OTI set-up will become
more like that of the other
schools of the loop on July
1. 1960. On that date admin
istration of the school will
shift from the Oregon state
board of education to the Ore
gon state board of higher edu
cation. Quarterly system of
terms will be adopted at that
time in place of the present
semester planned.
OTI was censured but not
placed on probation for. the
football violation and is eli
gible to compete for and ac
cept all league championships
