' Reports were circulating the far flung "Willy'' had hit the finan cial rocks and would be disbanded or reorganized into a smaller cir cuit. . - However, Robert B. Abel, league president, denied a report from Sa lem, Ore., that be had asked members to take such action.

"This is subject to directors' ac tion at the Spokane meeting; at which time they can approve, dis approve or reorganize the league in any manner they see fit. . ." In denying the Salem report. Abel said his responsibility is to direct the owners' attention to a very serious financial situation which confronts the league. He emphasized that the president of a league can under no circumstances difband a league. Newspapers in Salem, Portland and Spokane quoted reliable sour ces as saying the league would either have to fold or cut the num ber of teams. All said the sprawled-out league, with four teams in Canada and six in the U.S., was facing heavy travel costs. Attendance has been light at a number of cities. this season. The Oregonian in Portland spec ulated that the league might be cut to eight or six teams. Among possibilities mentioned was that Calgary and Edmonton, or Van couver and Victoria, would be dropped. Calgary gave up Its franchise once this year, but later picked It up. Lewiston, Salem, Victoria and Spokane also have reported light attendance and a doubtful finan cial future.

Hons described as "running Uie gamut from serious to mild" were processed Wednesday by trie Pa cific Coast Conference to clear the way for Thursday's final ses sion of the regular spring meeting. H. P. (Dick) Everest, conference spokesman, said the 35 vlolaUoas topped anything he could recall. Just what these violations were, however, remains a conference secret. The PCC officials, who also re laxed restrictions on freshman ath letics a wee bit, plan to wind up the four-day session late Thursday afternoon. The agenda still ap pears crowded, but Commissioner Victor O. Schmidt said there was no rule that all matters must be cleared away at this mile egn. cleared away at this meeiing. The next session is set for mid winter at Pasadena, Calif, , While the faculty men who hold the reins on conference policy were sifting the violations, the football coaches wound up their meeting by electing Henry (Red) Fnnders of UCLA as president. He will succeed Lynn (Puppy) Wal dorf al their next meeting. . a year ago uie conierence re stricted freshman football teams to three games per season, lim ited their practices to eight hours weekly for five weeks and ruled they could practice only threo times against the varsity. Wednesday they decided the frosh could survive a three-game season. Freshman basketball teams also were given extra games, the limit going from 10 to 15 tilts. The scrimmage Issue also was defined to make It three meetings between frosh squads and varsity. Some coaches had been interpret ing the rule to mean each fresh man could go, against the varsity Uiree times and were splitting their frosh squads to get in extra scrimmage sessions. The report on the violations gave their number and little else. Un der present conference policy the misdeeds are reported to the pres idents of the schools Involved, and the administrators advise the con ference as to what corrective mea sures are to be taken. Everest said 22 cases, only one Involving discipline, were ad judged satisfactorily closed. Seen went to the presidents and one to Commissioner Schmidt for further study and a report back. Two were tossed to presidents of undisclosed schools along with reprimands for permitting them to occur, - and three more went out with a request for dlsclpllnery The cases' might amount to any thing from a minor eligibility rule Infraction to a flagrant case of Il legal proselyting.
