University /l .1 USC runs into problemsI Coach John McKay of Southern California said Tuesday he may be forced to move Ricky Bell, the nation's top runner, from tailback to fullback,. at least part-time, even though it would cause a series of problems for the third-ranked Trojans. The powerful Bell, a junior switched from fullback to tailback this season, is off to the fastest start of any running back in Trojan history. He has torn for 471 yards and six touchdowns in two games. But Dave Farmer, who took his place at fullback, broke a leg against Oregon State Friday night. "Farmner's injury obviously reduces our effectiveness," said McKay. "At the start of the season with Farmer, Bell, and Mosi Tatupu we had what I claimed were the three best fullbacks as a group, and now you have to take another one out." -AP Bosox boast best DI s Cecil Cooper and Jim Rice of the Boston Red Sox stand one- two in the American League designated hitter standings. The DH population already has hit more homers, scored more runs, and driven in more runs than last year, the league office announced Tuesday. Cooper leads the weekly batting race with a .312 average while Rice boasts a .287 mark. Rice will not get an opportunity to better that performance, since he injured his left hand Sun- day and will be out for the season. Willie Horton of Detroit and Billy Williams of Oakland have been the year's top sluggers. Horton has 25 homers, 61 runs scored and 91 RBI, followed by- Williams with 22 homers, 63 runs and 76 RBI. -AP Clemson caught byNCAA? Clemson University has been found guilty of illegal basket- ball recruiting practices by the National Collegiate Athletic As- sociation, according to the Greenville Piedmont. The newspaper said that informed sources report the school will be placed on two years probation. It said no information is available on whether the proba- tion would be limited to post season basketball or whether it would affect the entire athletic program. The Athletic Coast Conference school's athletic program has been under scrutiny since early this year. -AP } i~rr uz irnzrule cnange, ; the Varsity Reserve's purpose was clear-to groom promising freshmen, as well as some older players, for the varsity, by pro- iiding actual game experience. Then, in Brown's first yaar as VR coach, the Big Ten decided to let freshmen play with the big boys, and the face of VR football changed - somewhat. For example, this year's reserve squad would've included not only Leach, but highly-touted freshmen runners Russell Davis and Harlan Huckleby. The rule hasn't signaled the end of VR quality, though. Even with the chance to develop the more obviously skilled taken out of his hands, Brown has pro- Brown contends that the out- ---- -_. standing freshmen may miss the VR expnerience more tha~n the reserve sq-ad misses them. "THE FRESHMAN rule plac- ed a lot of pressure on the in- coming freshmen," Brown said. " "Now they feel they're failures if they don't play in the big stadium on Saturday. "But we don't judge a playter by his freshman year," BN'wn continued. "It's a big adjust- ment. Everything's stew, from his uniform to the system. These freshmen need coaching, and on the varsity, they won't get as much individual atten- tion as they would on VR."
