CHICAGO (P) - Commissionerf Wayne Duke of the Big Ten yes-c terday announced a hearing willc be held by conference athletic di-t rectors in Minneapolis tomorrowr in the legal battle by two sus-c pended University of Minnesota basketball players for varsity re- instatement. Duke's announcement followed1 a ruling earlier yesterday by U.S.1 District Court judge in Minneap-9 olis. He ruled that the athletic directors must formally act before# 6 'p.m., Friday in the case stem-1 ming from a bloody brawl at the close of an Ohio St te-Minnesotat game at Minneapolis Jan. 25. I THE MINNESOTA players, Ron Behagen and Corky Taylor, have been, under Big Ten suspension1 since the fracas in which three Ohio State players were hospital- ized.' Duke's statement said the Con- ference will follow guidelines set in the ruling of Judge Earl Lar- son, including notice of the hear- ing to "involved principals." Duke's statement, released by a Big Ten staff member, said "Be- canse this hearing relates directly to the pending litigation before Judge Larson, I believe any fur- ther comment at this time regard- ing this matter would be inappro- priate." The site and time of what the staff member said "probably will be a private hearing," were not disclosed. Judge Larson noted in his ruling, that opportunity to participate in college athletics is of "substantial economic value to many students." The ruling directed that unless the Big Ten conference's athletic directors hold a hearing and up- holl the suspensions by 6 p.m. Fri- day, Corky Taylor and Ron Be- hagen would be reinstated on the team. In addition, the players were immediately allowed to return to practice sessions. In his opinion, U. S. District Court Judge Earl Larson stated: "IN THESE DAYS when juniors in college are able to suspend their formal educational training in ex- change for multimillion - dollar contracts to turn professional, this court takes judicial notice of the fact that, to many, the change to display their athletic prowess in college stadiums and arenas throughout the country is worth more in economic. terms than the chance to get a college education." A meeting of the conference athletic directors already had been called for tomorrow in Chicago by Big Ten Commissioner W ayne Duke for "follow-up" procedures in the case.bo TAYLOR AND BEHAGEN, both 6-foot-9 funiors, had been sus- pended for the remainder of the season following the Jan. 25 melee that hospitalized three Ohio State players overnight in Minneapolis. Attorneys for the players, Frank Brixius and Ronald Simon said they had been notified .of the meeting tomorrow, but said the pair probably would not attend . In his opinion, Judge Larson also set down guidelines for the athletic directors' meeting. Ir cluded was a stipulation that the hearing record be made available to the players in the event they wish to appeal the decision to the faculty representatives of the Big Ten schools.
