Sooner probation denied
NORMAN, Okla. A)-Rumors abound that the University of
Oklahoma will be placed back on probation in August, bitt both
school officials and a source in the NCAA say there are nothing
to them.
OU Vice President J. P. Morris said Thursday that the Sooners
have not done anything wrong and that both the Big Eight and
NCAA had cleared them of the latest allegations.
The NCAA source backed up Morris' statement.
A story Thursday in the Oklahoma Journal, an Oklahoma City
newspaper, said Big Eight representatives were expected to dis-
cuss new action against the Sooners when the NCAA holds its
Aug. 14-16 meeting in Chicago.
The story said the contemplated new action stemmed from
an investigation into the use of a car by two Sooner football
players while on vacation during the winter break in Denver,
Colorado.
