CONTROLLED FOOTBALL "
NCAAS Splits Journeys,
Winds Up Calm Session

LOS ANGELES. Jan. IL R.-
The golden anniversary conven-
ton of the National Collegiate
Athletic Association must &C
down as one of the calmer. cooler
sessions of an organization that
has produced many a stormy
meeting.
Today the delegates we're head
ing home. and all that remained
on the scene was the council. OF
policy directing body. to appoint
new members of the important
television. executive and tourna-
ment committees.
Little happened in the conven-
ton that was not anticipated
Here is a wrapup of some Of the
main items of interest:
The NCAA voted to continue
football television ir
1886. 1t probably will be in simi-
lar fashion to regional and ma.
tional TV last fall but the plar
itself will be mapped out by the
1856 TV Committee and approved

vigorous oppent of the NCAA
TV plan.
Small college basketball fans
beginning in 1857. will be more
confused than ever.
The NCAA voted to inaugurate
its own national so-called small
college championship tourna-
ment. over the protests of the al
ready well established National
ASsocia ton Of intercollegiate
Athletics. which conducts Its
tournament at Kansas City.
There will be no relation to the
big college NCAA championship
and the college division, nor will
there be any playoff involving
any of the three.
Institutions will be able to de-
clare which tournament they will
seek to make and they have to
declare year in advance If they
plan a switch. Best guess is that
the new NCAA college division
will eventually kill. or swallow
the NAIA.
Season to Open Earlier
Effective next year, the basket
ball season will start October Is
instead Of November /. and
spring practice was abolished.
The convention frightened to
some extent its recruiting rules,
but another proposal to limit the
number of visits by an athlete to
a campus to one was withdrawn
for further study. This will pro-
vide fodder for debate next year
Col. Blake Van Leer of Georgia
Tech attempted a parliamentary
move to remove the NCAA from
the recruiting field entirely. Re
argued that the matter was sc
complicated" it defied enforce
ment by the NCAA. But his
amendment was ruled out oil
order by the reelected president
Of the NCAA. Clarence P. (Pop)
Houston Of Tufts University.
The InfractionS Committee
reported that Is schools are
presently under investigation fol
IA offenses in the area of recruit
ing. Neither the identity Of the
schools nor the alleged infrac-
tons were divulged. Frank N

The worlds first atomic
powered guided missile sub
marine, designed to reach points
off enemy shores at tremendous
speed and steaithily fire nuclear
weapons onto distant strategic
targets. is included in the Nays
1857 shipbuilding program. The
Star learned today.
The submersible would carry
intermediate range (1,200 to
1900 miles, surface-to-surface
missiles. None now exist which
would be suitable for such a
vessel because of weight and
size Plans for the boat explain
why the Navy was so interested
in recently joining the Army in
developing a 1,500-mile ballistic
missile at Redstone Arsenal,
Huntsville, Ala.
Eventually the Navy hopes to
be able to launch missiles from
submarines submerged. If the
sub is nuclear--as the six called
for in next years program-it
could be stationed for months

The city officials suggested
d comprimise in which they
were to put up signs. These
they refused to accept, and
continued to walk.
In its 18th week of walk

tinue their bus boycott with a

Jecting another compromise.
Montgomery Grand Jury
was expected to make report
climaXing its investigation
of the mass protest. Under
an old law of Alabama, boy
cotting is punishable by $1,000
fine and six months in Jail.
These facts were presented
at the sectional meetings
about the city, but these
people vowed to walk until
some fair settlement is made.

Schley, "has been arrested

Mr.. Schley's opinion 1t
has done more to cement the
Negroes together than all the
preaching. They have a new
sense of integrity and the feel

rights as an citizen. And too
walking has made a lot of
them feel a lot better physic-
