The athletes, Fred Ruck and
Herald (Skip) Greene, were
barred yesterday pending further

Athletic Director Paul Brechler
gave details of the case to the

any further action up to the Office
of Student Affairs.

This was taken to mean he wanted

PEORIA, H., Jan. 26.-If Brad
ley University is tapped for play
In the NCAA basketball tourna-
ment, it will have to use second
stringers-unless a current rule is
waived.
All but one Bradley regular
would be barred by the rule, which
bans athletes with more than
three years varsity competition
from meets sponsored by the Ma
tional Collegiate Athletic Associa-
ton. But the NCAA can put aside
the rule if it decides it is "abso-
lutely necessary" a spokesman
said in Chicago yesterday.
Presumably. several other teams
could find themselves in Bradley's
situation when the tournament
begins. North Carolina State, a
strong collegiate contender, has
discovered three Of its stars would
be affected.
Bradley Good Prospect.
A number Of independent schools
and some conference teams are
using athletes now in their fourth
year of competition. Most major
conferences have been operating
under rules permitting no more
than three years of play.
Bradley - fourth-rated nation
ally in the Associated Press poll
is a good prospect for NCAA selec-
ton. The Braves will be assured
Of a tournament spot If they win
the Missouri Valley Conference
championship.
Bradley has an 1872 record and
IS running second to Oklahoma
A. and M. in Valley play. The
Braves meet the Aggies here to-
night in a sellout game.
The NCAA spokesman said the
association could change its rules
'if too many schools are seriously
affected" He said the Eligibility
Committee, headed by Pacific
Coast Conference Commissioner
Vic Schmidt, would have the final
word.
Can Petition for Change.
In LOS Angeles last night,
Schmidt said. This is the first in
formation I've had on the matter
and I assume it will be formally
presented to the Eligibility Com
mittee." There are two other
members, o. K. Cornwell Of the
University Of North Carolina and
Dean Sam Shirky of Missouri.
The NCAA spokesman, who re-
fused to be named, said schools
which anticipate selection for the
NCAA tournament might petition
the committee to waive the three

Change Likely
TO Be Effective
After Next Term
Ivy League and Other:
Call Spring Meetings
To Decide on Action
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 26.-Un-
less the international situation
changes for the better. freshmen
can expect to play varsity foot
ball at the Nations colleges next
fall.
A checkup of the 10 major
college conferences by the AS
sociated Press indicated this to-
day. All of the conferences either
have considered or are expected
to bring up the question of using
freshmen on varsity athletic
teams. Undoubtedly, the smaller
college conferences are discussing
the same thing.
With national defense leaders
and Congress tackling a bill call
ing for drafting of 18-year-olds.
several college groups already
have met to talk about the
freshmen. The rule barring first
year students from varsity teams
went out the collegiate window
during World War II.
No Immediate Change.
There is no indication yet that
colleges plan to ram through any
change to allow freshmen to
compete in such spring sports as
track and baseball. Most of the
conference talks looks to the new
term next fall.
Scores of schools dropped foot
ball for one or more years during
World War II, including such as
Stanford. Vanderbilt, Baylor, Ore
gon, Princeton. Kentucky, Ten
nessee, Washington State, Oregon
State, Georgetown. Harvard, Bos-
ton University. Michigan State
and Mississippi.
Others, aided by the Navy
backed Viz program which
stressed football as great body
building game. carried through
without difficulty. Hundreds of II
and 18 -olds packed the ball
on the varsity in those days after
Pearl Harbor.
Already in the present emer-
gency. several colleges have aban-
doned football for the duration, or
Indefinitely. They include Du-
quesne. ST. Mary's (Calif). High
Point IN. c.. Mount st. Mary's
(MdD. Corpus Christi U. (Tex.)
and Portland tOre). University.
Schools are reluctant to do away
with football, for that sport pays
the way in most cases for the rest
OF the athletic program.
Several Meetings Set.
The Ivy League and other East
ern collegiate conferences have
called meeting March 13 to take
up the freshman rule. The South
west Conference will meet May
11-12, unless members request a
mail vote beforehand.
Fred Mitchell, president Of Mis-
sissippi State and head of the
Southeastern Conference. said he
is polling the IL member schools
on whether there is enough inter-
est for a meeting on the subject.
Several conferences already
have taken up the question. Com
missioner Wallace Wade of the
Southern Conference said mem

for a mail ballot whenever it is
deemed advisable" by the con-
ference president. Max Earring

JUN Votes World
 Wide Ban Of War. Shipments China
By STANLEY JOHNSON

UNITED NATIONS, NY, R- The United Nations Sanctions Committee today voted world wide ban on shipments of war goods to Communist China. The vote was II to nothing, with Egypt abstaining.
 The sanctions group, formally known as Additional Measures Committee, is a 14-nation body set up to consider punishment of Red China for her intervention in Korea. The committees vote is only the first step toward imposi- ton of the worldwide embargo.
 All signs point to eventual as sembly acceptance, however, and the US. hopes adoption will be by an overwhelming majority.
 British and French opposition to the move, based on the fear that it might enlarge the area of conflict, evaporated last week.
 Pushing of punitive measures against the Chinese Reds indicates the extreme pessimism with which the JUN. regards the possibility of negotiated peace in Korea.
