Oregon State blacks' transfers

SEATTLE P() - Black Alumni

ference to change its transfer
rules so athletes planning to leave
Oregon State University can en-

Joe Jones, president of t h e

terest in transfering, but would
be 'ineligible for two years for par-
ticipation in athletics at another
Pac-8 institution.
"We feel, in view of the racist
attitude at Oregon State Univer-
