Then they were flown home all

couldn't be a leak.
Yet Schmidt might as well
have been a passenger. To Con-
ference heads he exposed the
whole tawdry transaction-play-
ers' names, alumni involved,
sums offered, flight schedule. Re-
suit: a 81, 500 fine on the college
and loss of the athletes.
''How'd he ever dig up all

head coach. ssTape-re-

Schmidt never tells. His case

better protects his sources. "A
lot of information comes from
people who want to see our
games kept Clean" he says.
Checking coach-player CORE
spondence and employment rec
ords and following up sports-page
accounts of boys under pressure
ishelpful." Under conference
rules, these records are all avail
able to Schmidt.
In 1947-48, travelling more
than 100000 miles out of his
downtown Los Angeles Office,
Schmidt turned up more than
200 cases of coaches entertaining
teen-agers, alumni offering under
table deals" fancy parties,

enough until it developed that

of her own, protested that she
couldn't take on more work.
"Oh, it's no trouble" the COL

Last December, it was decided
that the fine system isn't the
answer and hereafter all mis-
deeds unearthed by Schmidt will
be referred to the university
presidents. Says Schmidt: II

goes on behind his back, he's

Coaches, however, are caught
in the fiercely competitive switch
of big business. In the past year
81 coaches-most of them career

all concerned is the Old Grad
who can't bear to see his team

Offers up to $1,000, placed in a

anteed job for the boy upon
graduation, have been reported.
Schmidt can only guess what
percentage of violations he de-
tects. He spent three months in
1851 burning up roads between
San Diego and Seattle. Some
times luck, not speed, does the
trick. As in the case of a big
tackle in central California.
