HARRICK Continued from Page 9A reportedly for an annual salary of $400,000, in the summer of 1995, short- ly after the Bruins won their NCAA title. He was cleared on Oct. 21 by the school and Pacific-10 Conference of violations in the sale of a car he owned to the sister of point guard Baron Davis two days after Davis orally committed to playing for the Bruins next season. Young said UCLA's investigation has been reported to the Pac-10 and the NCAA, and the sale of the car was "completely unrelated" to the dismissal. "UCLA has always tried to compete within the rules and when violations are discovered, we act quickly to investigate the situation and take decisive step to solve the problem," Young said. "To our thousands of fans and supporters, I offer our promise that UCLA will continue to be vigilant in enforcing high standards of conducted in all university activities." Lavin became the No. 1 assistant on Harrick's staff when Lorenzo Romar left to coach Pepperdine last spring. Lavin is about to start his sixth season as a member of the UCLA staff, but just his second as a full-time assistant. In addition to committing an NCAA violation during a recruiting dinner, UCLA said Harrick violated NCAA rules regarding ethical conduct, for "refusal to furnish information relevant to an investigation of a possible violation of an NCAA regulation when requested to do so by the NCAA or the individyl institution." The school said, Harrick was charged with "knowingly furnishing ... false or misleading information concerning the individual's involvement in or knowl- edge of matters relevant to a possible violation of an NCAA regulation."' In addition, Harrick violated policy by filing a false expense report in connec- tion with the dinner, the school said. According to the university, a recruit- ing dinner on Oct. II was attended, by five current players even though only three recruits were present. It's against NCAA rules for a school to provide a free meal or entertainment to a student that assists in the recruit- ment of a prospect during an official visit unless the student is designated as the one student host for that prospect. When questioned about the dinner by UCLA officials conducting the investi- gation, the school said, Harrick misrep- resented significant facts on more than one occasion. Later, when confronted by university officials who had compiled the facts of the dinner, Harrick admitted he had mis- led the school. I _______________ AP PHOTO Former UCLA basketball coach Jim Harrick was fired yesterday after allegations surfaced that he filed a false expense report and committed recruiting violations. Less than two years ago, Harrick led the Bruins to their first NCAA title since 1975. This year, UCLA was picked to be one of the nation's elite teams with all five of its starters returning and challenge for the title again.

(AP) - Boston College suspended 13 football players yesterday for gambling, including two ho bet against their school last month a game with Syracuse. .Thomas Reilly, the Middlesex County distiet attorney, said the two players did not influence the outcome of the game, which the Orangemen won 45-17. While a violation of NCAA rules, it is net the point-shaving scandal the school had known once and feared again. "We have found absolutely no evi- dence, no indication, of any game, the utome of any game, the score of any e, being compromised ... by players at Boston College," Reilly said. The suspended players include tight end Scott Dragos, starter, and linebacker Brian Maye, who had been a starter before he dislocated his elbow. The others suspended were identified as running back Jamall Anderson, offen- sive lineman Marcus Bembry, defensive back Paul Cary, defensive linemen John oleman and Dan Collins, wide eceivers Chris Cosenza, Steve Everson and Brandon King, center Kyle Geiselman, linebacker Jermaine Monk, and light end Rob Tardio. The list does not differentiate between those who bet from $25 to $1,000 on the World Series, college football or pro football and the two who placed $200 and $250 on Syracuse, giving 13 points against their own team on Oct. 26. Coach Dan Henning said the two *ould not be allowed back on the team. The others will miss Saturday's game Crew places tWo of top tree boats B Fred Link F9'the Daily fbe Michigan crew team turned in if6ther solid performance Sunday at the Head of the Elk regatta in Elkhart, Ind. In the most prestigious open-eight race; the Wolverines took the second, third and seventh places out of a field of 15. Purdue's top boat finished in first place, completing the 2 1/2-mile course n 15:17. Following close behind were nwo of Michigan's boats, with times of 15:25 and 15:35. The Wolverines entered three relative- ly even boats rather than focusing all of their talent on one best boat. While this makes it more likely that all three boats will do well, placing a boat in the top three becomes more difficult. - In the novice-eight race, Michigan tiok third with a time of 17:37, trailing 1st-place Purdue (17:23) and second- piee Indiana (17:36). Though the combination ofa second- and a third-place finish in the open eight is certainly an excellent showing, the Wolverines had hoped for a repeat of last week, when Michigan finished one- ' --..:. -L, t..

"I will not, and the team will not, accept back to the program anybody that has bet against Boston College," Henning said. "We want every player on our team this weekend to be those that are interested in winning the game." Boston College was at the center of a point-shaving scandal in 1982 when Rick Kuhn was sentenced to 10 years in prison for his role in fixing six basketball games during the 1978-79 season. Initial reports indicated there might have been a similar problem this time, but Henning took solace in the fact that most of the players involved had not betrayed their teammates. "I'm thankful that this university has passed muster," he said. "We can play without any taint this weekend." Athletic director Chet Gladchuk did not comment on whether the school would rescind the scholarships or take further action against the athletes. But he said that question arises "any time a stu- dent athlete renders himself ineligible." "When it comes to the moral and eth- ical conduct of our players and when it pertains to the integrity of our university, there will be no compromises at Boston College," Gladchuk said. Although the players who bet against Boston College were not identified, Reilly said one did not play in the game and the other played on special teams. NCAA rules forbid athletes from bet- ting on any intercollegiate or profession- al sporting event. King, grandson of boxing promoter Don King, and Anderson have not played this season because of injury. Henning said rumors of gambling or point-shaving first surfaced after the Syracuse game, in which the Orangemen trailed 14-7 before rallying for 17 points in the final 1:43 of the first half. Syracuse got the ball for those three scores on two Boston College punts and an interception. Speculation intensified after last Thursday's 20-13 loss to Pittsburgh, a game in which the Eagles were favored by 1 1/2 points. Speight, Monk, Anderson and King were confronted by Henning and the team's student captains on Saturday. Later that day, Gladchuk announced that the school would investigate the rumors with the goal of clearing the pro- gram's name. "When In Rome" The Italian Barbers Dasco la's 615 E.
