Trojan Anguish Echoing LOS ANGELES (AP) Cries of anguish echoed today at the University of Southern California, foundry spanked by the NCAA for offering improper inducements to a pair of athletes. The two-year probationary peri od slapped on the university Wed nesday bans the Trojans from the Kose Bowl next New Year s Day and prevents them from defending iNLAA titles in track, tennis and baseball. The university declined to iden lily the two alhletes who caused ihe penalty. However, a Trojan source ad mitted one was Ben Charles, a football quarterback from Lancas ter, Pa., who will be a sophomore next season. .. Consensus of official reaction Why didn't the NCAA tell us about the infractions so we could have taken, action? "I'm astonished that the NCAA reached its conclusion without previously presenting the univer sity with a complete copy of all evidence and without interviewing supposed offenders," said Univer sity President Dr. Norman Top ping. Athletic Director Jess Hill com mented in Cincinnati: "I am deeply disappointed in that certain new information and evidence came to the attention of USC just (Tuesday) morning.

I.IONS ROARED DETROIT UPI - The most points the Detroit Lions ever scored in a single game was 59 against the Cleveland Browns in the 1957 National Football League title ame. tion for violation of the NCAA alh. letic code. But in an earlier action on the first day of the 53rd annual con vention, the NCAA gave new ath letic life to football player Don men, key figure in the Auburn recruiting scandal which nilminal- ed in NCAA probation for Aub urn and Southern Conference dis ciplinary action which barred Fuell, an end, from participation in SEC athletics. In a ruling requested bv Missis. sippi Southern College, the coun cil said that Fuell would he eli gible to compete in athletics at the Hattiesburg, Miss., school if he transferred from Auburn where he is now a third-semester stu dent. This, in eflect, gave Fuell clean bill o( hea th at anv INLAA - member school excent those in the Southeastern Confer ence. Within a few hours after the rul ing, it was announced at Hatties burg that Fuell had entered Mis sissippi bouthcrn. He already had been accepted for the winter term which began Tuesday. The Southern California action crept up on the 2.200 deleirates nxe a Trojan horse. It had been expected that South ern Cal, already serving a two- year probation, would be restored lo good graces. The previous two- year probation had been due to expire Nov. 13, 1958, and the offi cial announcement that it had done so was expected by the HUAA. But the probationary period was quietly extended while the com mittee on infractions continued an investigation into "imoroner In. aucemenis onerea to prospective siuaent. - ainietcs. The, names of the athletes, both currently mem bers of the USC football team, were not disclosed because, as the council pointed out in the Fuell ruling, it is interested In penaliz ing institutions, not individuals. Over - all, the university is barred from participating in 15 NCAA championship events and 28 cooperating events for the peri od of one year; from participa tion in any NCAA-controlled sports television appearances for two years, and it was stipulated addi tionally that any violation of NCAA requirements during the two-year period may be con sidered as cause for expulsion from the NCAA. with special emphasis placed on uie details ot man lo man de lense came to a halt on Pelican Court this afternoon as coach Hear White ran his squad throueh a final wind sprint session in prep aration for their Saturday match with the Crater Comets: the third Southern ()rgon t'onlerence start lot the KUuniilh Union Pelican cagcrs.

Bob Lewis, Jim Hall, Dean Dunson and Lon DeLap, with Bob Drace and Dave DeLap slated for heavy duty n support ot the tirst live, may face revision before game time. Don DeLap, although he has been on the court each allernoon in a sweat suit, has been held out scrimmages or running per doc tor's orders pending the termina tion of a bad cough, thus making him a verysdoubt(ul quantity for Saturday action. Another worry plaguing White is the condition of one of the tale s top reboundcrs. Petersen. Ihe 6-4 backboard man missed he Wednesday afternoon session because of a bad sore throat al though he returned to school to dry. He, like Dave DeLap, who in jured a hand Wednesday, may be forced to see limited work in ihe Saturday fray. J ho balance of the squad has ped through heavy scrimmages each day this week with extra rebounding and freethrow shoot ing drills thrown in. 'Perhaps a day of rest on Fri day wilt give our missing 'horses' a chance to recuperate we may need them," commented White.
