III. im Ara Par scghian, Northwestern's new head football coach, has this winning formula: Get as many good players as possible to enroll at Northwestern. Teach them the split-T and spin-T offenses. Keep being superstitious. At 32, the handsome, smouldering-eyed coach is the youngest grid boss In the Big Ten. He comes from Miami of Ohio, a school that has spawned such other big timers as Woody Hayes, Sid Gilman and Slu Holcomb. Northwestern's new athletio director. Pnrseghian doesn't like to be Called superstitious. "I'm not really," he said In an Interview. "Well, what If I have worn the same brown suit and tie every football Saturday? The boys threw me bodily into a shower once and I thought the suit would be wrecked. But It came out all right. "I've got it pressed and hung In a plastic bag right now. Don't know whether I'll wear it at Northwest ern when we play, or get another one and start all over again. "This brown one is getting pretty threadbare In spots. Maybe I'll send It to Miami and have the school retire it." Parseghian is sure that wearing me garment helped him compile a ' 39-6-1 record in five seasons at the Oxford, Ohio, school, including a perfect mark in 1955. He also refused to have his pic ture printed m the school's foot. ball brochure after 1951. his first year as coach when Miami won only five of Its nine games.

'AA Checks Free Rides For Athletes LOS ANGELES lift 'The Na tional Collegiate Athletic Assn. indicated Friday it proposes to slam the brakes on "free rides" for college athletes. A stringent amendment to the recruiting section of the NCAA by laws will be presented at the 60th annual convention opening Satur day, executive director Walter Byers said, The proposition is expected to steal the thunder from discussions of televised football, the major Item on recenut convention agen das. "This amendment, if adopted, will really tighten up present regu lations," Byers added. So-called "booster clubs" of alumni would be curtailed by the amendment, which prohibits NCAA member schools from permitting "an outside organization to utilize or administer funds for the pur pose of transporting prospective student-athletes to its campus." The amendment leaves nothing to be misunderstood in Us refer ence to "funds," either. "The pooling of resources by two or more persons for this purpose shall constitute a fund. It says flatly. And It goes even further, wip ing out the possibility -that an ac tive club might evade the intent of the rules by designating one of Its members to tinance tne trip oi a hot-shot halfback to the old alma mater's campus. If that should be the case, says the amendment, the person who pays the freight for the Junket should accompany the student "to and from the cam pus." " The present widespread practice of Inviting star high school ath letes to be guests of universities at major football games or other Interesting activities would be cur tailed, too, by another section of the amendment. Schools would be permitted to finance "not more than one visit" to their campus and would be al lowed to pay only the roundtrip transportation. Any such trips would be lone some, too. The amendment states that member colleges may not "directly or by any other means finance the transportation costs In curred by relatives or friends of a prospective student-athlete. . . . (nori arrange tor or permit ex cessive entertainment." Initial discussion of the amend ment is scheduled Monday at sepa rate roundtable meetings of faculty representatives and ath letic directors. The vote on adop tion will be taken at the final con vention business session Wednes day. 1 Kl.m.tti Fail! ftrwifh Se)wttl 4ffc Sfrs)e)f aMrwefc MorrMI Irnit TNAnOMAl BANK a fteaviAYMa) : : 1 FIRS KU-Roseburg Meet Moved Ceach Dutch Simons an nounced this raarning that the Klamath Union .

By ED F1TE FORT WORTH. Tex., (UP) There's a lot that's plaguin' Bobby Bragan these dsys but you'd never know it to talk to the effervescent freshman manager of those peren nial last place Pirates. Any one who inherits the Job of running the Pirates Is more to be pitied than censored, no matter what happens, but Bragan doesn't want anybody feeling sorry for him. He has plans about how to get Pittsburgh out of the doldrums next season. "Mostly they Involve general things," Bragan said. "Right now, I don't want to talk too much about specific players and specific posi tions because I don't know too much about what everybody 'can do. But I don't see anything to cry about. "Fo: one thing we should have one of the better pitching staffs In the league. I think a lot of clubs would be glad to swap pitching ataffa with us. The Pirates had some good kids last year and of course Bob Friend -led the league in earned runs with 2.64 and his 14-9 record on a last place club wasn't to be sneezed at either." Bragan also is high on George Munger, the red-haired ex-Redbird, who picked up a knuckler while pitching in the Pacific Coast League and became a consistent winner. "He's a lot better pitcher than he was when he was with St. Louis." said Bragan. "The Pirates turned down a lot of money for him recently." Among the general improve ments Bragan hopes to make is to get some sing into the Buccos on the basepaths. "Last year the entire ciup stole only 17 bases," he said. "A team ought to do better than that even If it is the fat men at tne sunaay school picnic." Bragan also wants nis players 10 be on their own. particularly his catchers. In making strategy de cisions. "A ball player should have some Initiative to make plays, especially when he thinks they may cut down a rally," said bustling Bobby. "He shouldn't depend on ,tha manager to do all the thinking." Bragan also wants to keep as manv of his players In aotion as possible. That means there won't be any rookies sitting Idly on the bench day after day. If they can't make It In Pittsburgh they'll be farmed out where they can play. "You've seen too many players hurt mentally and In their ad vancement by sitting around on a malor league bench without play ing," he said "Any kid craves action and needs it." You don't exactly catch Bragan braggin' about his young talent but he thinks that mere is pieniy around that other clubs could use and he'd like to stir up a trade or two. "We've got such pitchers as Bob Friend, Vernon Law, ana twnnie Kiln. Infielders Dale Long and Gene Freese and outtieioer r rans Thomas who could be standouls with almost any team," he said "We're willing to trade, too. But the trouble Is that even tnougn every other National League club expresses Interest in these fellows, all thev want to let go in return Is a bunch of hand-me-downs. That doesn't exactly make Bra gaii peeved. In fact he's getting so fond of his youngsters, he may want to keep them. And he'll bet you that the kids will get the Pirates out of last place, too. Yreka Seeking Games YREKA The Yreka Hlgn School Miners are seeking two games for the 1936 football sea son. Coach Jack Beggs says that his club will play anyone, and that arrangements will be made to satisfy both parties. Yreka has September n ana November 2 open.
