The business of college football is getting frustrating, as Gomer I Jones, head mentor at Oklahoma, will readily testify. It seems that the Sooners were all set to meet Florida State in the Gator Bowl earlier this year when four of Oklahoma's star players revealed, a bit red-faced, that they were ineligible for the game. It seems as though someone forgot to tell them that when one signs a professional contract one is no longer eligible for amateur competition. The boys were a bit dismayed because they had figured that since the contract had been undated, it really wasn't a contract at all. Maybe they thought it was a special invitation to attend a barbecue session after the Gater Bowl contest. So now Jones, along with some other football coaches, has given the axe to all future pro scouts from the clubs involved who have intentions of visiting the Sooner campus.j Some of the more ardent boosters of college athletics immediately lambasted the pro clubs in general for putting business ahead of morality, corrupting these college players, and casting a shadow over college football. Blame the Pros?! National Football League Commissioner Pete Rozelle responded by saying that he would investigate the matter in considerable detail to discover if any NCAA and NFL bylaws had been violated. This is pretty decent of Rozelle, since most of the blame for this mess can be laid on the doorstep of college athletic administra- tons. The pro clubs should be exonerated since they're in business to make money and the only way they can do this is by grabbing off the, best players. The pros make no bones about this fact, but the colleges are to blame for turning collegiate athletics, specially. football, into one big rat race where the dollars and cents have become the prime, if not the ultimate, goal in the minds of most participants. The Deal If a high school football player is any good at all and is attending a fairly well-known school, things get off to a bigbang during his senior year when numerous colleges begin giving him the "big pitch." The pitch is fairly stereotyped. The college athletic represen- tatives are in fierce competition and it's the college that can come up with the best deal that usually lands him. Although occasional references may be made by a small handful of institutions to the superior academic atmosphere, the major emphasis by most centers around a full-ride scholarship, extra monetary benefits, numerous,, tutors, and easy courses. The college is already impressing upon the athlete the fact that moneynis of primary concern. A full-scholarship is a tidy chunk in itself, but when the college begins tossing in free books and laundry, pocket money, a soft job, and an extremely lucrative summer job, the athlete's ears perk up.

Let's needed a when he face it, who ever heard of a college student who really lucratve summer employment opportunity from an alumnus doesn't even need one red cent for his college education? Those on-campus jobs during the school year shouldn't be overlooked as not being, financially gainful endeavors either. A couple of years ago I met a college sophomore who had played P some basketball in Detroit. A couple of small Michigan schools went after him, both offering scholarships. When I saw him he told me that the college which he was attending had secretly given him a job working in the school kitchen for two dollars an hour. He said he felt a bit guilty knowing that the other boys with whom he was working were only receiving ninty cents for the same chores. Although the Big Ten used to have a "financial need" factor in its bylaws, it doesn't anymore and neither do most of the other conferences throughout the nation. This obviously serves to illustrate the frankness the colleges employ in using money as their chief weapon in attracting athletes. Money also seems to be the, main reason the NCAA is reinstitut- ing platoon football. Playing the game that way is more exciting to the fans who are now expected to turn out in larger numbers, thus endowing each athletic department with more money with which to obtain more athletes. Exception Sometimes there are exceptions to the rule and the University's athletic department headed by H. 0. (Frizt) Crisler might be one. Crisler has always been the prime advocate for reinstating the "need" factor in athletic scholarships and for reducing the number 'of scholarships available to each Big Ten school. Crisler is openly opposed to any professional tendencies creeping into the college ranks. Unfortunately, Crisler is in a minority. After four years in college the athlete, if he has panned-out, has been well-indoctrinated 'with the idea of grabbing the best, and that means the most lucrative, professional offer to come along. It appears that Alabama and Notre Dame really know how to educate their athletes, for quarterbacks Joe Namath and Heismann Trophy winner John Huarte recently signed for a ludicrous $400,000 and $200,000, respectively. When money like that starts floating around, any smart athlete: knows that he's in a big business. But, when the business gets so big that millions of dollars are spent each year by colleges just! to win some football games, one realizes that the stakes are too! high for the amateurs. So when Oklahoma played in the Gator Bowl minus four! starting players, Jones shouldn't have griped. The school and the sport got just what it deserved-four college football players who had learned when to grab a good deal. points at 46-28 late in the first half. Notre Dame narrowed it to 46-35 at halftime. Purdue turned cold early in the second half, but the Irish never camne closer than the final, four-point spread. Notre Dame topped Purdue by one field goal, hitting 32 of 98 to the Boilermakers' 31 of 80. Purdue made only half of its free throws but they were enough to win-16 of 32 against 10 of 16. Schellhase of Purdue was high with 28 points,dhitting 10 of 24 from the field and 8 of 10 free throws. Ron Reed topped Notre Dame with 22 on 10 of 27 and 2 of 3. Purkhiser -got 22 for ; Purdue on 9 of 23 and 4 of 9.
