Cue Experts Say Fancy Shots

"How about position?" some

pocket billiard players don't
understand position. 1t is not a
matter of English, but just a ques-

little thinner or thicker than you
should, you'll likely make youl

College Heads Study
De-emphasis Plan in
Session Here Today
BY The Associated Press

Eleven college presidents are
meeting this afternoon to work
out details on how intercollegiate
sports may be de-emphasized.
The presidents are members OF
Ia special committee set up by
the influential American Council
on Education to study what's
wrong with sports.
Raymond Howes of the council
told a reporter the president;
hope that by the time they con-
lclude their meetings here tomor-
row they will have, in writing,
a workable athletic code which
can be enforced. The sessions
closed to the public, are sched-
uled at the council building, 1875
Massachusetts, avenue NV.
The code will be submitted to
the Executive Committee of the
Council for its approval or dis
approval.
Board Program Framed.
In previous meetings here the
presidents have all agreed that:
/. Post-season football bowl
games should be abolished.
2. Freshmen should not be al
lowed to play on varsity teams.
8. Athletes should take the
same courses as their classmates
and keep up with them in then
progress toward degrees.
4. Booster clubs should not be
permitted to give financial help
directly to athletes.
5. Lavish entertainment" o.
high school stars should be for.

Howes said he had noticed II
the papers that some conference:
and individuals had objected tt
dropping bowl games. but tina
most of the comments sent in Il
the council have been favorable
/ Still to be decided is what tn,
committees chairman and spokes'

Hannah said after the meetin.
last month that the presidents hat
proposed that schools which VIC
lated the proposed code woult
endanger their academic standing
/ The plan is this: If schoo
failed to have a proper athletic
program, it would endanger it
academic standing just as if. TO
an example, it failed to hav,
