BY III. As.oeiat.d Pres.

DALLAS, Dec. 13.-The South

without comment a bid by Okla
homa to return to the league it
left 80 years ago.
No action was taken on an

day in which Kraft said he was
making a preliminary investiga-
tion of the possibility of rejoining
the Southwest Conference "some-
time in the future"
Back in Oklahoma. Kraft today,
however. explained his controver-
sial visit to Dallas as an attempt
to establish friendly relations
with the Southwest Conference.
Calls Transfer Foolish.
1--WE have no quarrel with the
Big Seven" he declared. 1T would
be foolish for us to leave one
conference for another governed
by different rules"
He referred to the fact that
Oklahoma is bound by regulations
of the North Central Accrediting
Association whose athletic rules
are more stringent than those fol-
lowed in the Texas-Arkansas cir
cult.
The Faculty Committee, gov
ierning body of the Southwest Con-
ference, did take action today on
la number of other matters, the
most important being adoption Of
the contract system on high
school athletes. In the future
when boy has signed "letter
of intent" he cannot be given
an athletic scholarship by any
other member of the conference.
Scholarship Curb Delayed.
The committee continued for
further study a limitation on ath-
letic scholarships or travelling
squads IN athletics.
Television receipts will be di-
jvided on the same plan as Bowl
game receipts. The Southwest
Conference school will give eight
|tenths of its share from televised
football games. This money goes
into the conference fund and will
be distributed each year among
all the conference members.
