The five schools facing the sanctions are Arizona State, the University of Oregon, Oregon State, UCLA and the University of Southern California. However, conference games played during the 1980 season will count in the standings and in the determination of the conference championship. According to the report, the in- stitutions were penalized for "violations of conference rules and standards in the areas of unearned credits, falsified transcripts and the unwarranted intrusion of athletic department interests into the academic processes of the respective univer- sities." Pac-10 spokesman Jim Muldoon said the third violation listed was aimed only at Southern Cal. "We're very disappointed about the decision," Southern Cal football Coach John Robinson said of the ruling, which cuts to five the field for a Rose Bowl berth against the Big Ten champion. However, Bill Nicholas, chairman of the Tournament of Roses in Pasadena, Calif., remained confident the ruling would not hurt the Rose Bowl. "We don't see the ruling adversely af- fecting the Rose' Bowl game, even though this (Pasadena) is a USC town," said Nicholas. "It appears that Washington and Stanford look like the front-runners, according to the polls." Reaction was pointed at UCLA, which also was ordered to forfeit all of its 1977 football games in which any ineligible athlete played. "The incident for which we are being penalized occurred three years ago," said football Coach Terry Donahue. "I am embarrassed that the academic integrity of UCLA has been subject to question." UCLA Athletic Director Robert A. Fischer said the penalties his school received "are very severe. What hap- pened three years ago was an unwillful transgression and could not happen today under our present academic safeguards." English retires PONTIAC (AP) - Doug English, the Detroit Lions' leading defensive player, apparently has ended his National Football League career after five seasons and one Pro Bowl appearance, the Lions said yesterday. English, in a letter from Britain ad- dressed to Coach Monte Clark, said he no longer has time to play football and pursue his business interests across the Atlantic, said club spokesman Brian Muir. Muir said the letter was the, first the team had heard frpm English since April. "I read Doug's decision with con- siderable regret," Clark said. "He was our defensive leader and an outstan- 'ding person as well." Muir said English left with no animosity toward the club. The Lions still have him under con- tract should he decide to play football again, Muir said. English was a Lions' representative in the NFL Players Association. Randolph retires TACOMA, Wash. (AP) - Leo Ran- dolph of Tacoma, who lost his World Boxing Association junior feather- weight title by a knockout during the weekend, says he's retiring. "If it could happen once, it could hap- pen again," Randolph, 22, said Monday. "It's not a good feeling to be hurt like that. I woke up with a headache yester- day." Randolph dropped his 122-pound division championship in the fifth round of a scheduled 15-rounder at Spokane, Wash., Saturday to Argentina's Sergio Palma. He was knocked down twice in the opening round. It only was the second loss in 19 professional fights for the 1976 Mon- treal Olympic Games' gold medalist. Randolph said he planned to invest .his purse of $75,000 from the Palma bout and look for a job in construction. He earned approximately $150,000 in his two-year pro career after going 160-7 as an amateur. 4 4 BASEBALL ROUNDUP Yanks tear Sox, 3.-i NEW YORK (AP) - Reggie Jackson hit his 400th career home run and Aurelio Rodriguez slammed an equally dramatic two-run homer in the ninth inning as the New York Yankees defeated the Chicago White Sox 3-1 Monday night. Rodriguez, acquired a week ago from the San Diego Padres, hit his first homer for New York and third this season after a double by Lou Piniella with one out in the ninth off Britt Burns, 10-11. Rudy May, 10-5, scattered four hits while striking out four to gain his third straight victory. Jackson slammed his 31st homer of the season in the fourth on an 0-1 pitch from Burns. Jackson thus became the- 19th hitter in major league history to achieve the 400-homer plateau, sur- passing Detroit's Hall of Famer, Al Kaline. Todd Cruz's third homer, with two out in the sixth, tied the game for Chicago. May had retired 16 straight White Sox since a leadoff single by Leo Sutherland in the first. New York mounted a serious threat in the sixth when Bob Watson and Jackson each singfed with one out. Jackson took second on a throwing error by right fielder Wayne Nor- dhagen, but Burns retired Eric Soderholm on an infield grounder and struck out Rick Cerone. Orioles 2, Royals 1 KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - Eddie Murray's sixth-inning homer broke up a pitching duel between Dennis Mar- tinez and Larry Gura and lifted the streaking Baltimore Orioles to a 2-1 victory over the Kansas City Royals last night. It was the 10th consecutive victory for the Orioles, who remained 2 games behind the New York Yankees in the American League East. Murray's leadoff homer into the left field seats off Gura, 16-5, his 20th of the season and fourth in eight games, snapped a 1-1 tie. Baltimore took a 1-0 lead in the first on consecutive singles by Al Bumbry and Rich Dauer and a bloop double to right by Ken Singleton. The Royals' George Brett, who en- tered the game batting .390, singled in the first inning to extend his hitting streak to 24 games.

It was the fifth PGA title and the 19th major tournament for Nicklaus. Earlier this year he ended a two year drought by winning his fourth U.S. Open and it appears from all accounts that Jack is back! 4
