the boy. not identified by name,
could not qualify enthusiastically
for a regular scholarship.
Admits Charge True
Arthur Dutch Lonborg. Uni
Iversity of Kansas athletic direc-
tor, admitted last night the
charge about transportation was
true.
Lonborg said the student in
volved was Kent Bryan, Kansas
City High School graduate now
lat Wyoming University.
Lonborg said DR.. Forrest c.
(Phog) Allen. retiring Kansas
basketball coach, drove Bryan to
Lawrence to take an entrance
examination in 1854.
But. Lonborg said. no member
of the staff knew about an offer
of financial aid to Bryan.
After Bryan publicly an
|nounced plans for enrolling at
Kansas. Lonborg said he realized
the youths scholastic record did
not merit an athletic scholar
ship. Lonborg said Bryan was
told he would have to work his
way through school until he
qualified Scholastically for a
scholarship.
Bryan went to st. Louis Uni
versity and later to Wyoming.
Has No Apologies
Allen said last night he took
Bryan from Kansas City to Law
renee, a distance of about 40
miles. because Bryan called and
said his car had broken down.
II. did not know at the time
that this was an infraction of
the rules although perhaps /
should have" Allen said. II was
frank to tell the Infractions
Committee of the NCAA that I
did this. I have no apologies to
offer"
The council found Mississippi
College guilty of violating three
rules. The NCAA said the now
defunct Mississippi Educational
Foundation provided financial
to three student
athletes during the winter of
1884 and that the aid was not
administered by the school as
required by NCAA regulations.
The second violation was in
connection with the practice
sessions for the 1954-55 basket
ball season. The NCAA said the
team started practice October /
that year, one month earlier
than NCAA rules then permitted.
The council said the third vio-
lation occurred when the school
played two practice games
against outside competition be-
fore December /. The small Mis-
sissippi Baptist school played %
games. two more than the NCAA
rules allow.

tons with their athletic depart
ments and certify the school
was complying with the rules
and intended to continue to
do so.
Offered Excessive Aid
Clarence P. Houston Of Tufts
University. president of the
NCAA and chairman of the
Council, said when a school is
on probation its athletic pro-
gram is subject to close inspec-
ton and scrutiny"
ANY malpractice during the
probationary period will seri-
ously jeopardize the institutions
membership in the NCAA."
The Texas A8SM violations
occurred in its football program,
while the Kansas and Missis-
sippi College NCAA rule infrac-
tionS were connected with bas-
ketball, Byers said.
The Texas A65M violations oc-
Cured in its football program,
while the Kansas and Mississippi
College NCAA rule infractions
were connected with basketball,
Byers said.
In its resolution. the NCAA
Council said Texas AIM was
found guilty during April, 1855,
Of Offering at least two pros
pective student athletes "f1nan-
cial aid in excess of that per-
mitted by this association and
the Southwest Athletic Confer
ence."
A&M also violated two other
NCAA rules, the report said. In
one case. a representative OF
the college, not a staff member,
gave a prospective student ath-
lete a cash payment to sign a
letter of intent to enroll.
School Aided Probe
The other violation by Texas
Ann came in the method of
awarding scholarships. The
NCAA said the Athletic Council
Of Texas A8SM and not the fac
ulty scholarship awards commit
tee handled grants-in-aid to
athletes. The latter situation has
been corrected, the NCAA said.
Byers said the NCAA was aided
IN its investigation of Texas
A6SM by the school itself and
the Southwest Conference.
About the Kansas violations,
the NCAA said it had evidence
that Kansas staff member pro-
vided round-trip transportation
for a prospective student ath-
lete to visit in "at least one in
stance"
The council said it also had
evidence that a friend of Kansas

3. Walter Byers, executive Sec
Rotary of the National Collegiate

NCAA has no rule to keep a boy
from competing against a pro-
fessional athlete. He said the
NCAA has different rules on the
subject than the AAU and the

Imoaned by Maryland's anglers,
several Of whom have told US
that either the streams have been
lfished out or there were fewer
trout stocked than claimed by
the State. We feel that much Of
this sort of disappointment is
caused by the angler himself. The
numbers of men, women and
boys fishing the trout streams
scare the trout to a point where
they'll take nothing. We watch
with amazement men bearing the
best of equipment. wading in the
middle of a stream with ap-
Iparently no thought Of their &C
tons. Men walk brazenly out on
la rock overlooking shallow pool
where even a half blind trout
could see them and be scared of.
What amazes us is the fact that
so many of these stocked trout
are caught. One of our friends,
commenting on the antics Of
anglers on Maryland's opening
day. told us that in his opinion
95 per cent of them couldn't
catch even one trout on a native
trout stream which had not been
stocked. We're inclined to agree.

Speaking Of Presley, q TV coll
umnist has written an open let
ter to Steve Allen in which he
chides him for booking the rock
N roll youth on his July /
show. Here are several para
graphs from Charles MERGERS
story for Associated Press:
In the case of Presley, it's
easy to strike a Sanctimonious
pose and wall out as a guardian
of the public morals. Certainly
Presley embarrasses mature SEN
sibilities and enflames - to
judge from the effects of rock
n roll throughout the country
the immature. But I'm not TAX
ing a moral stand in this
case
MY purpose In asking why
you're booking Presley has an
other basis. Your television ca
reer has been marked by a high
sense of humor and a great re-
spect for talent. Presley GER
tainly is not funny - though
that is not my complaint against
him. My argument against his
appearance is simply lack of
talent. I can't for the life Of me
see why you want to have such
an untalented guy on your pro-
gram"
Mercer loses me completely
with his lack-of talent charge.
When was that ever a yardstick
for measuring the booking of
acts? Allen has had plenty of
no,talent people on his shows
before-Jayne Mansfield, for
one. In his book, THE Funny
Men," Allen tells the story of

Allen himself. by the way, is
not a particularly talented per-
son-in the show business sense
of the word. He could be de-
scribed as a dilettante in a vari-
lety Of fields, including humor,
writing and music. And a very
successful one, it should be
added.
Steve has excellent taste,
fewer blank spots than most TV

dips are dangerous. despite the
moonlight splendor of the hour,
even when you're in a group.
z. Watch beaches where waves
break with such force as to cause
undertows or currents. They may
drag swimmer under and away
from shore. If you don't know
about the local undertows ask a
native.
8. Don't overdo yourself. When
you swim out from shore remem-
Der you've got to swim back. Ex-
haustion is the prime danger in
the water.
8. Never pretend you're in
trouble in the water. You may
cry wolf once too often and find
one needs your real cries for
help.
One last word of advice to
beach devotees: don't try to get
that summer tan all in one ses-
sion under the sum- Experts at
the Institute for Safer Living
point out that Gripping skin
burns and, occasionally, death can
result. Cover exposed skin areas
with a generous amount of anti
burn ointment squeezed from a
handy metal tube and repeat the
dose after each swim. Always
cover up at the first sign of
oinkness.

Take Precautions
And Follow Rules
While In Swimming

The number two accidental kill
er of young adults, drowning will
be the cause of 1900 deaths amone
the Is to "a year-old age group
this year, predicts the Institute
for Safer Living of the American
Mutual Liability Insurance Com
pany. Drownings, among this
group, are exceeded only by auto
fatalities. June, July and August
are the months when well over
half of all drownings occur, most
i of them through the most health
full of all sports-swimming.
The Institute has found that be-
cause the young adult is likely to
become over confident and feel
superior to the observance of sim
pie safety rules in swimming, he
is tempted to take chances. Ad-
venture, at this age, is more thrill
ing than security. Is to "a year
olds, therefore, are subject to
special dangers.
Here are water safety rules pre-
pared by the Institute for Safer
Living especially for young adults.
l. Avoid the temptation of be-
ing clown in the water. Stunts"
and showing off" may rate
cheers from the crowd, but watch
out for making accident news as
a tragic aftermath.
2. The buddy system" may
sound like kid stuff, but it has
real merit for older persons as
we'll. If each swimmer selects a
friend who is a good swimmer to
watch and be watched by, there's
far less chance of either swimmer
getting into trouble
3. Diving takes real skill-and
caution. Find out first whether
the water is deep enough, whe-
Their hidden rocks, submerged
crags, stumps and sand bars are
beneath the surface to
produce a hazardous diving area
a. Even if you are not diving,
explore depths with caution. Cur
rents may wash away at river and
ocean floors, changing depths rap
dly enough to make even AM
)ften frequented spot place full
If surprises. If you risk the I'M
Known in water, you are inviting |
danger.
5. Abide by the often quoted Il
.ule: after eating, wait at least 8
)ne hour before going into the
water.
6 Avoid swimming alone. Night
