Sanctions May Help Strict Amateur Code NEW VORK, Jan. 7 W) The 232 member colleges of the National Collegiate Athletic association are going to be asked whether they are ready to apply "sanctions" against schools which provide, among other things, room and board for star athletes. The threat of a schedule boycott would be the means of en forcing the basic code of amateurism In athletics, according to recommendations drawn up by the NCAA's "conference of con ferences" here yesterday. The group, representing virtually every college conference and a number of so-called independent schools, recommends a set of five principles which lt proposes to Implement with an agreement that the schools which adhere to them will not play the non-conformist schools. This hot potato will be handed over to the regular NCAA con vention tomorrow. The principle on amateurism not only reaffirms the standard amateur athletic union and Olympic definition of an am ateur, but adds that "any col lege Athlete who takes miv for participation in athletics does not meet this definition of an amateur." Under tills principle, room and board usually supplied to scholarship athletes is outlawed unless an athlete actually works for It. A second principle on "institu tional control and responsibil ity," on which the NCAA was founded In 1905, says that the college Itself in the final analysis shall exercise them. The third principle, "sound academic standards," decrees that an athlete must be admitted to a college in the same manner I a,.
