.Breakfast at
Campus Inn
eric siegel
MICHIGAN'S assistant basketball coach Freddie Snowden
leaned back in his chair and grinned at the youths sitting
on either side of him. "Stick with Sno and O," he said, "and
you'll go right to the top.
The scene was the dining room of Campus Inn on Satur-
day morning; the O was, of course, head basketball coach John-
ny Orr; and the youths were Campy Russell, a 6-8 senior at
Pontiac Central High School and the player of the year in
Michigan last year, and Tony Styles, a 6-1 senior guard on the
same team,
The affair, if you have to give it a label, was a "re-
cruiting breakfast," but the arm-twisting and high pres-
sure tactics you usually associate with college recruiting
were no where to be found.
It was a strictly low-key, sacual affair, a chance for
the players to ask some questions and the coaches to give
some answers, but mostly a chance for the recruits and the
recruiters to get to know each other on a personal basis. As
Snowden said, "The people you're with are the most im-
portant thing."
The talk, quite naturally, was about basketball, and a lot of
it was general and anecdotal. Orr recalled Austin Carr's clutch
37 point performance in Notre Dame's victory over Michigan
last year. "Sidney Wicks is big and strong and a great player,"
he said, "but I think Carr could be the best player in the coun-
try."
Russell didn't attempt to rate the players, but he was clear-
ly impressed with Wicks' showing against Artis Gilmore and
Jacksonville, in the NCAA finals last year. "He was great, just
great," Campy said.
"When Wicks went up and stuffed the ball on Gilmore,
you knew he had him," Campy added. "Gilmore should
have gone down there and stuffed the ball three times just
to show he had it in him."
"That was the difference out there," Snowden said.
"Gilmore didn't come up with the great second effort you
need to win in this game. Wicks did."
But the major part of the conversation was about Michi-
gan. That after all, was what they were all there for, and no
one was denying or ignoring the purpose of the visit.
Orr was quick - and proud - to point out that Michigan
plays some of the top teams in the country. And he talked about
Michigan's tournament schedule for the years when Campy and
Tony would be on the varsity here, as well as the strengths and
weaknesses of his freshmen and sophomores,
Russell recalled playing against one of the sophomores
two years ago. He was Ken Brady, the Wolverines' 6-10, 235
pound center from Flint Central. "I was only a sophomore
and he was a senior. He came out and he didn't look at all
that strong, but he was a tough dude and he killed us in-
side."
Russell asked about the Wolverines' offense. "We try to
simplify the game as much as possible," Snowden said. "That
means we run a lot and when we can't run we try to work it
inside."
Still, the offense wasn't Campy's main concern. "I look at
everything in picking a school, the town, the whole athletic pro-
gram, everything.
"I look at academics first and then basketball. No matter
how good you are now, you can't count on playing pro ball four
years from now."
It should be noted that right now, Campy Russell is
very good. He averaged 26.4 points and 19 rebounds last year
state tournament. He has made every major pre-season
He has made every major pre-season All-American team,
leading his team to a second place in the state tournament.
He is one of the most sought after high school players in the
country. He is being recruited by dozens of teams through-
out the country, receiving about six letters a day. The
previous weekend, he paid a visit to the University of Mary-
land, where Coach Lefty Dreisell is trying to center his
future basketball program around 6-11 freshman Tom Mc-
Millan.
Styles is no slouch, either. A quick man, and a good de-
fensive player, he averaged 13 points and 14 assists last year and
has drawn high praise from his own and opposing coaches.
Russell and Styles would like to stick together and play their
college ball together. Orr and Snowden would like to see them
play it at Michigan,
"If we weren't serious about wanting you guys to play
here, we wouldn't be sitting here right now," Orr told
them Saturday.
"We're trying to cut down in the area we recruit in,"
Orr explained. "We'd like to take all players from Michigan.
It's better for us and we think it's better for the players.
And this year there are enough good players in the state to
do it."

Orr looked across the table at Russell and made no attempt
to restrain his enthusiasm. "Gosh, I'll tell you Campy, if you
came here you'd be a natural. People would pack Crisler Arena
just to see someone with your last name play here again."

CHAPTER FIVE
The kids were rocking and bopping and getting .it on. Betty and
Bob were in a corner toking up and listening to the heavy music
which made the living room bounce.
CHAPTER SIX
"Oh, wow," said Bob to Betty (his steady). A few of the kids
had toppled over from exhaustion (they had been dancing non-
stop for six days). Sweet-smelling smoke filled the room and roaches
were piled to the ceiling.
CHAPTER SEVEN
"Oh, wow," whispered Betty to Bob. "I'm sure glad Dad took
that business trip to Paducah."
CHAPTER EIGHT
Betty's Dad burst into the living room. "My God, what kind of
orgy is this!" he cried in consternation.
CHAPTER TEN
"Here Dad," said Betty dreamily. "Take a toke; it's some far-

Betty's Dad hesitated, then accepted the smoking joint, saying

NEW ORLEANS, La. (/) -- The
Financial Aid Committee of the
National Collegiate Athletic Asso-
ciation has formulated a proposal
that. would drastically cut the
amount of money colleges and
universities would expend on ath-
letic programs and at the same
time tend to equalize competition.
The committee, headed by Wil-
liam J. Flynn, director of athletics
at Boston College, presented its
proposal in rough form yesterday
to the powerful 18-man Council
of the NCAA.
The council will meet again to-
day and has scheduled a news
conference at noon to announce
what action it will take on the
committee's sweeping suggestions.
However, an informal poll of
several of the council members in-
dicated that the committee pro-
posal probably will be presented
for discussion at the next NCAA
convention next January.
Basically the proposal would:
-Limit the number of scholar-
ships any NCAA member could
grant to 30 in football and 6 in
basketball.

-Set up a sliding-scale formula
under which athletic scholarships
could be granted only on the basis
of need.
In another sweeping proposal,
the committee suggested that all
NCAA membersbesrequired to
issue their scholarship invitations
on the same date, eliminating con-
fusion and sometimes bitter feel-
ings when a high school prospect
signs a scholarship with one
school, then decides to attend an-
other.
A player recruited, but not given
financial aid, would count against
the 30 and six limitations once he
appeared in a varsity game, but
not before.
Schools would not lose scholar-
ships by not using their full allot-
ment in a given year, but in no
case could "bank" more than five
in football.
But he estimated most schools
would cut by 50 per cent the
amount of money spent to field
teams under the two-prong pro-
posal of limiting scholarships and
granting them on need.
