to Head Service

The National Collegiate Athletic Association has revamped its film service and granted exclusive motion picture production and distribution rights to a newly-formed organization.

Walter Byers, NCAA executive director, said a contract has been signed with a group headed by Richard S. Snider of Washington, DC Snider, a long-time associate of Bud Wilkinson, has resigned as vice-president of the Lifetime Sports Foundation to devote full time to NCAA films.

Associated with him arc James W. Vickers and Richard J. Boushka, both oil company executives in Wichita, Kans., and Arthur R. Jones, Chicago film producer.

Vickers was NCAA golf champion in 1952, playing for Oklahoma University. Boushka was a basketball All-American in 1955 at St. Louis University and was an industrial league All-American in 1958 and 1959 while playing for Wichita.

Byers said the new organization, called NCAA Official Film Service, will have exclusive film rights to all NCAA championship events and also will produce promotional and instructional films under the official NCAA label. will give much “We are hopeful,” Byers said, “that this arrangement greater exposure to NCAA events, through television and other film outlets, and will enable millions of Americans to become more fully aware of the job being done in sports by NCAA member colleges and universities.

“Also, by utilizing the tremendous talents of our coaches and athletes, we are confident we can offer to other coaches and physical education films teachers, from elementary school on up, the finest instructional available.

The plan is to produce these films in more than 20 sports.”

Snider, a former newspaper man, was Administrator of the President’s Council on Physical Fitness for three years when Wilkinson was President Kennedy’s fitness consultant.

He worked for the former Oklahoma coach in the latter’s unsuccessful U.S. Senate race in Oklahoma in 1964 and joined the Foundation when Wilkinson became its president in 1965.

“Our goal is easily defined,” Snider said. “We believe the NCAA offers the best all-round sports program in the world and we hope to provide a comparable film service, both for entertainment and instructional purposes.”

Headquarters for the film service will be in Washington at 2430 Pennsylvania Ave., N.W.

Years

Ago

No fewer than 152 outstanding scholar-athletes from 109 different colleges and universities have received a welcome boost in their post-graduate academic efforts from the NCAA’s scholarship program instituted three years ago.

Medicine is the post-graduate field most pursued by the recipients of the Association’s $1,000 grants.

Law, engineering and business administration follow in that order.

Eleven other fields of study complete a broad spectrum of endeavor by those who have earned their NCAA awards to date.

Since the NCAA Post-graduate Scholarship program was established in 1964, the number of grants has been increased from 32 originally to 50 in 1965-66 and to 70 this past academic year. The last two years participants in all sports have been eligible.

At the outset only football and basketball players qualified.

Financed by TV The program is financed from the NCAA’s four per cent share of the football television contract, now held by the American Broadcasting Company.

The scholarships go directly to the institutions which have accepted the recipients for graduate work. To be considered a candidate must have established a minimum of 3.0 (B) average in undergraduate work.

Having done that, athletic ability and accomplishment are the prime considerations with other campus activities being reckoned also.

Despite the success of the program, the committee charged with the selections, chaired by Lawrence C. Woodruff, Dean of Students at the University of Kansas, feels that a goodly number of qualified athletically outstanding scholars are not being nominated by their institutions for one reason or another.

Yale Has Most A breakdown of the 152 winners shows 71 universities with a single recipient over the three years, 25 that have had two awardces, 13 which can boast three winners, one that has had four-Cal Tech, and one that has had five, Yale. Total active NCAA institutional membership is 598.

Of the 114 who are either now in graduate school or who have been accepted, no less than 29 are studying medicine, 18 are in law, 11 in engineering, 10 in business administration, nine in physics, six in mathematics, five in economics, four in dentistry, politics, philosophy, economics and history and two in international relations, theology, English language and literature.

THE EDITOR’S VIEW Support

Whatever the merits pro and con college football’s new punt ruleand not nearly all those qualified to judge are against it-the current coaches’ inclination to set aside last January’s action of the NCAA Football Rules Committee has more important overtones than what may or may not be wrong about the rule itself.

This is not to say those responsible for the new rule minimize the importance of injury.

Nor is it to infer that coaches who have expressed themselves publicly in opposition aren’t perfectly sincere in their belief that the effect of restricting interior linemen to the neutral zone till after the ball is booted on scrimmage kicks subjects players covering those kicks to hazards not present under the old rule.

It is to say, however, that mass pressure to change the rule before it’s been tried might result in complete upset of the finely-balanced autonomy with which the NCAA Football Rules Committee has been blessed and has earned through the years.

At present there is no institutional NCAA rules which is mandatory during though NCAA rules do become effective championship events.

or conference regular season in postseason

compliance with play in any sport bowl games and

If it should become necessary to enforce mandatory compliance with the playing rules, football coaches might find their situation a great deal more odious to them than is now the case. If, for example, the gridiron rules body should need the enforcement backing of the NCAA Executive Committee or Convention action to protect its orderly procedure from the coaches’ collective whim whenever they don’t like a rules change, the traditional independence of the football rules body might be lost. That might not be worth their effort to scrub the new punt rule before a season’s play has tested it.

law

and Order

at Stake

To put it another way, law and order could be at stake, not just a rule, which at worst provides no more hazard than the free kick and at best adds a new and exciting dimension to a part of the game which had become predictable, routine and, from a coaching standpoint unnecessary to spend a great deal of time with. If there’s one thing the collegiate game doesn’t need it is the stereotyping trend of its professional counterpart.

President Theodore Roosevelt’s concern in 1905 force of the flying wedge and other forms of brutality on sparked the NCAA to life.

Rules standardization was achieved to the great benefit, not only of football, but other sports as well, as more and more athletic activity became concentrated in our schools and colleges.

Many of the gridiron’s great coaches have served with distinction as rules makers.

Many are now doing so. But those who have been both top coaches and, later, distinguished administrators in intercollegiate athletics will tell you nearly without exception that the coaches’ point of view is not the only one to be considered nor is what the coaches want necessarily what is best for the game.

And that’s why, has shown the neccessity for a broader specfootball rules committee.

The point is, it has worked.

While in other areas of athletic administration it has been necessary through the NCAA to become more restrictive to counteract abuses and maintain order, in football rules generally a balance and judgement have prevailed among the men who have made the decisions which has precluded the necessity for the kind of regulation necessary in recruiting, financial aid, and academic credibility.

Football Rules Committee is not perfect nor have all its a boon to mankind.

A great deal of the thrust of last Jansession, however, was toward injury prevention.

The new punt rule passed by a 13-1 margin without, in previous discussion, a single major objection raised in a group containing five highlyregarded, imaginative, active coaches; five athletic directors, all of whom were former well-known gridiron mentors; two standout conference supervisors of officiating and one representative each from the secondary schools and junior colleges.

The eleven major conference commissioners have acted in concert to back the Football Rules Committee decision.

Committee chairman Ivan Williamson has declined to bend to pressure to reconsider the rule before it has been tested, realizing full well what the implications of a precedent to do so might mean for all future actions taken by the committee.

This doesn’t mean that if it should be changed to prevent injury it won’t or can’t be. It does mean that the committee is confident, in general practice, that the rule will not create the extreme conditions which some predict, and that it will put the punt runback back into the game.

Jack Curtice of UC Santa Barbara, chairman of the coaches’ group (AFCA Rules Committee) says the mentors themselves discussed the idea and recommended to the NCAA rules committee that something be done to eliminate the large number of fair catches.

Len Casanova, who retired as head coach at Oregon to become the school’s athletic director, was a member of the NCAA body when it decided on the rule . . “I think the trouble in the coaches’ minds is that the rule is going to demand that a lot ol them change their kicking formations, which they don’t like.”

Casanova discounts the theory that injuries will result from blind-side blocks.

“It will develop the quick kick more.“.

Curtice and Casanova agree that punters will have to stand closer to the line of scrimmage, thereby reducing the time that elapses between snapping the ball and booting it.

. . . Football is the best-taught subject in the American high school because it is probably the only subject that we do not try to make easy.. . .

We attempt to make learning “interesting” and “fun.” As a result, we have made it neither: we have succeeded only in making it deadly dull.

The student has lost respect for us and for the subjects we teach. He wants to grow up; he does not want his life made easy.

Football is the challenge he wants. Football fires his imagination.

He identifies himself with the football hero, because it is in this image that he wishes to see himself.

He wants to have the opportunity of facing an adult world on its own terms: with courage, with endurance, with competence.

I think it is high time we got some pointers from the coach.

Even more convincing (than selection for British Commonwealth Games) was the college dominance of first places in the national AAU championships at Bakersfield.

(Same subject as above) Colleges and high schools have 90% of our track and field athletes, 95% of our coaches, almost 100% of our facilities.

Colleges increasingly produce most of our best men even as they did last week at Bakersfield (AAU championships) . . .

The meet at Bakersfield again revealed the strength of our collegians.

They placed 33 men on the team which will meet the British, the high schools one. Twenty-eight noncollegians made the team, but even this bears analysis.

The noncollegians competed largely in such events like the 20 kilometer walk, decathlon, triple jump and hammer throw in which collegians do not ordinarily compete.

A Wisconsin native, Plant received his B.A. degree from Lawrence College in 1932, his M.A. in 1934 and his J.D. from the Michigan Law School in 1938. In between the M.A. and J.D. he taught a year at Algoma, Wis., high school and two years at Appleton.

His active law practice includes seven years - from 1938-44 - in Milwaukee with time out in government service for the OPA in Washington.

Two years in New York came next and in 1946 he was invited to join the Michigan law faculty and has been there ever since.

His law specialties are torts (personal and property injury law) and commercial law. He has a particular interest in workmen’s compensation and two years ago produced a study of that aspect of intercollegiate athletics as related to financial aid programs.

Acts

Actions and interpretations taken by the NCAA Council and tive Committee at their annual spring meeting and the Officers’ actions of most pertinent interest to the membership are hereunder

Execuinterim listed:

Council Clarification of Constitutional Interpretation 2-(c) (Page 15, NCAA renders himself ineligible for interManual)-The phrase “voluntarily collegiate competition” refers to a student-athlete who signs a professional sports contract or commits other acts which render him a professional under existing interpretations of the Association.

The phrase “fraudulently misrepresents any information on his application, letter-of-intent or tender” is new language incorporated by the action of the 61st Convention and contains legal implications of which the institution should be conscious: e.g., if a prospective student stated on his application that he was in good health, while knowing he had a medical problem which probably would prevent him from competing in intercollegiate athletics, this would be grounds for instituting the procedures outlined in the second sentence of 0. I. 2-(c).

If, on his application, a student stated his intention to engage in intercollegiate athletics but then, without justifiable reason, failed to report or engage in any activity associated with athletics, this also could be grounds for instituting the stated procedure.

Other reasons which might be considered as cause for changing the original award of financial aid misrepresents” should be weighed carefully against the “fraudulently language. in serious misconduct warranting substantial Phrase (3) “engages disciplinary penalty” is considered applicable to the athlete in the same way as it would be applied to the student body in general.

The basic premise of 0. I. 2 is that financial aid may not be reduced or cancelled solely for athletic reasons. It is the Council’s view that in difficult cases the institution’s scholarship and grant-in-aid awards committee should give the benefit of doubt to the student athlete. * * * Clarification of Constitutional Interpretation 2-(d) (Page 15, NCAA Manual)-It is not permissible to pay the expenses of an ineligible student-athlete to or at the site of a postseason event, e.g., freshmen or other ineligible basketball players cannot be transported nor their living expenses paid while their institution’s team is playing in a postseason tournament. * * * Bylaw Interpretation 182 (Page 55, NCAA Manual)&Only eligible student-athletes may participate in permissible postseason practice, e.g., for certified bowl game. If freshmen are not eligible for varsity competition their practice ends with last regular season game and may not continue into bowl game preparation. + * * Bylaw 4-6-(b)-(l) (1.6 legislation, Page 38, NCAA Manual).

If a high school graduate attends a college preparatory school for a full academic year, he may be judged by his predicted grade point average as a high school graduate or on the basis of his college preparatory school record.

A student for whom no predictability has been established and who desires to compete on an athletic squad of an institution may engage in practice, but not competition, up to four weeks while the institution obtains predictability data. At the end of the four-week period if predictability has not been established, he must terminate practice until it is.

If he eventually predicts 1.600 or better, he is then free to continue practice and to represent his institution in accordance with institutional policies. * * * Foreign basketball competition-Such competition approved during official playing and practice season shall be counted as part of institution’s regular schedule in computing maximum number of games in accordance with Bylaw 8-1-(a).

Institutions engaging in out-of-season basketball practice shall be allowed ten practice days, number of sessions within a day to be determined by the institution.

There shall be a limit of 20 games allowed in out-of-season competition.

Any games in excess of this must be approved in advance by the Council.

An institution shall not be allowed to participate in out-of-season competition more than once each four-year period. ii: * * The Council voted that a conference be permitted to sponsor a press day at a central location under its supervision and/or one or more of its members with eligible student-athletes from its member institutions present for publicity purposes provided such an event is conducted during the academic year or during permissible playing and practice season of the sport involved. t * * Bylaw Interpretation 186 (Page 56, NCAA Manual)-amended to permit an institution to assemble its basketball squad for a picture day after the completion of the regular basketball playing season, subject to Convention ratification.

Executive

C o m m ittee

Approved revision of the format for the National Collegiate Golf Championships to take effect in 1968. The team championship shall now be determined through 72 holes of play with the low 15 teams continuing after the first 36 holes. The individual title shall also be determined through 72 holes with the low 32 individuals continuing past the first 36.

Western domination of the team titles and record attendance at the College World Series highlighted the NCAA’s spring sports championships.

Four of the seven championships contested in June went to two California schools; Arizona and Texas colleges picked up the other three crowns.

This spring, Southern California took National Collegiate titles in both both track and field and tennis while nearby Long Beach State walked off with the College Division honors in the same sports.

CHAMPIONSHIP

SUMMARIES

Of the 21 championships conducted in both the University and College Divisions in the recently concluded academic year, 11 were won by schools from the West Coast, 10 from California.

The East picked up three; the Midwest, Southwest and the Rockies two each and the South one.

The AAWU led the West’s overall domination with five titles, three of which went to the Trojans.

The CCAA took three College Division crowns and no other conference or area did as well.

The baseball championship went

to Arizona State and Texas dominated the golf scene with Houston winning the National Collegiates for the tenth time and Lamar Tech taking its first title ever by a wide margin in the College Division.

Arizona State annexed its second College World Series in three years by belting Houston in the title game, 11-2. The Sun Devils’ catcher, Ron Davini, was selected most outstanding player.

In the 18th Series to be held in Omaha, 63,906 fans attended the nine sessions with 11,537 viewing the seventh session which was

played over a two-day period due to rain. A total of 35,800 attended the three-day Track and Field Championships at Provo, Utah, with 19,562 on hand for the finals.

Southern Cal romped to victory in outdoor track and field with 86 points to 40 for runner-up Oregon. Tommie Smith of San Jose State (220), Art Baxter, New Mexico (triple jump), Bob Seagren, Southern Cal (pole vault) and Randy Matson, Texas A&M (shot put) established meet records while Earl McCullouch of USC tied the 120 Hurdles mark.

Standouts in 12 Sports NCAA Grad Scholars World record-holder Randy Matson and Olympic Gold Medal winner Ken Sitzberger head a group of 22 student-athletes who have been awarded postgraduate scholarships by the NCAA. The awards, covering 12 sports, bring to 70 the number of $1,000 scholarships awarded by the NCAA to deserving senior athletes during this academic year. To be eligible, an athlete must have at least a 3.0 (B) or better grade average for his entire college career.

Matson, shotputter par excellence, has a pending world-record heave of 71’ 5%” to his credit, holds the American record in the discus and earned a silver medal (second place) in his specialty in the 1964 Olympics.

The 6-6, 260-pound giant majored in management at Texas A&M and plans to pursue a master’s degree in that field at the same school. One of the A&M officials, in recommending the Texas strong man who has won four NCAA titles, said “Randy is a near perfect example of what a collegiate athlete should be.”

Sitzberger earned his Olympic Gold Medal in the three-meter diving event.

He holds five NCAA championships in diving and the Indiana University accounting major has never finished lower than third in any major national or international meet in his collegiate career.

Others who have distinguished themselves in NCAA championship competition include Dick Swan, Stanford second baseman, who led all pivotmen in double plays and was named All-Tournament at the 1967 College World Series where the Indians finished third.

Steve Cohen, Penn State gymnastscholar, was the all-around champion of both the 1966 and 1967 NCAA Championships and Roger Mickish of Oklahoma was runnerup in the 167-pound division at the 1966 Wrestling Championships.

In addition, Mickish won 54 matches during his three-year career. Dave Rikert of Williams, who racked up a 3.89 mark in physics, was runnerup skimeister in the 1967 Championships.

Perhaps the most outstanding scholastic record among the group

belongs to Navy’s Rich Mies. The Eastern 15Zpound wrestling champion, Mies stands first in his class of 693 at the Naval Academy with a 3.98 average in mathematics.

He also received a Fulbright Scholarship and intends to study nuclear engineering with a look toward entering the nuclear powered submarine service.

The recipients of the awards are as follows: Baseball - John Edward Devine, Yale; Robert Ralph Gustafson, Rollins; Lcland Thomas Fife, Brigham Young; Richard Reid Swan, Stanford.

Some 20,101 high schools engage in interscholastic cage competition, while eleven-man football accounts for 829,286 young athletes in the nation’s prep programs.

Track and field, with 16,650 schools participating ranks second to basketball among sports programs and third in the number of individual participants behind football and basketball.

Many Gridders to Start Workouts August 31 More than half of the NCAA’s member institutions will be able to start their preseason football practice earlier than usual this fall.

NCAA Bylaw a-l-(a) states that “preseason practice shall not begin prior to September one . . or prior to two weeks before the first day of classes, or 16 days before the first scheduled intercollegiate game, whichever is earliest . . .”

Application of the aforementioned Bylaw means that those colleges and universities which open their schedules on September 16 may start practice August 31. This involves about 275 schools.

Those which have their opener slated for September 15 may commence fall drills on August 30.

Nearly 40 schools which kickoff for the first time on September 9 will be permitted to start practice on August 24.

Also pertinent to this matter is NCAA Bylaw S-l-(c) which permits the issuing of equipment, medical examinations and picturetaking sessions on the day before the first day of practice.

Irwin, Colorado NCAA Golf Champ

College Player Baseball Rule Topic of Review Reasonable success and completely open channels of communication have marked the first year of professional baseball’s college player rule (Rule 3(k)).

In a report to the NCAA Professional Relations Committee, Chairman Dave Nelson, director of athletics at the University of Delaware, reviewed the actions of a meeting July 6, called by Baseball Commissioner William D. Eckert in which the following interpretation was discussed and approved as being in compliance with the college rule: (A) A player who is 21 years of age and drafted in June can be contacted for signing by a club in January.

(B) A player 21 years of age and not drafted in June cannot be contacted for signing in January.

The meeting, called for the purpose of reviewing the college player included representatives of rule, the Junior Colleges, NAIA and the American Association of Collegiate Baseball Coaches in addition to Nelson and the baseball commissioner.

The committee requested that COSIDA or the NCAB provide the Commissioner’s Office with rosters of college baseball teams which include the birthdates of all playing personnel.

This is similar to the arrangement with professional football which has undertaken to eliminate those students with eligibility remaining from being drafted or contacted by a professional club. It would serve the same purpose for baseball.

James Gallagher of the commissioner’s office reported that the AACBC has requested professional baseball to join with the baseball coaches in conducting clinics across the country with a combined college and professional staff. The high schools have also approached professional baseball with a similar proposal, he said, and both have been taken under advisement.

What started me thinking along these lines was the announcement . that the College Tourney Sponsors and the NCAA had reached an agreement to hold the championship here three more years at least.

This alliance has been one of the more successful sports marriages, enduring 11 years of ups and downs and served as a trailblazer for nine other championship events in the NCAA College Division.

The players coming here in March for the three-day affair get bigger each year, the teams tougher and better coached. The 1967 field was by far the strongest assembled, even with the Salukis (Southern Illinois) vacationing in New York.
