(P).-Freshmen will be eligible tc

The conference decided as
much yesterday when it quickly
defeated a proposal by Virginia

was no discussion. DR.. c. P
SALLY Miles, Techs faculty
chairman of athletics. read the
proposal. A vote was taken i'm
mediately. Seven members re-
jected it.
In other action, the conference
revised its transfer rule in d
move to strengthen it; voted 7-3
to pay expenses Of delegates to
the annual convention of the
National Collegiate Athletic As
ISOLATION IN Los Angeles January
6-12. and set its 1856 tournament
dates and sites.
The transfer rule change abol-
ished the provision for making
athletes who transfer from one
school to another eligible for
athletics Immediately in cases
where extreme hardship Is in
volved. In such cases, the Execu-
tive Committee had the power to
make the decision.
Hereafter only two types Of
TRANSFERS will be eligible for
competition Immediately. The
league decided at its winter
yesterday that foreign
students would play upon trans
fer regardless of previous ath-
letic participation. The confer
ence had agreed several years
ago on the eligibility Of summer

Among Leaders
In Miami Open

Golfdom's youth movement" is
steadily stealing the thunder
from the Hogans, Sneads and
Middlecoffs but so far none of
the youngsters has established
himself as a consistent cham
pipn.
That opinion was voiced today
by Ray O'Brien. PGA tourna-
ment director, as he scanned the
list Of leaders going into the
second round Of the $12,500
Miami Open.
Four of the five co-leaders
after the first round are rela-
tive stranger to COLTS circle Of
champions. And the exception.
Frank Stranahan of Toledo.
earned most of his fame as an

year.
Stranahan, former British
Amateur champion, tied for first

Of Mahopac. N. Y; Doug Higgins
Of Midland, Tex. and Jack
Isaacs Of Langley ALB, Va. All
are members of COLTS younger
set except Isaacs. a club pro
who plays in only a few tour
naments each year.
THE era Of the Hogans. Sneads
and Middlecoffs isn't completely
over-they're still the top threats
anytime they enter - but the
youngsters are taking over more
and more" O'Brien said.
But so far not one Of the
kids has shown the winning
consistency I'd like to see. Dow
Finsterwald and Mike Souchak
have won two tournaments each
