CAA Reviews thietic Code York, Jan. 11—‘A 1 *—The National Collegiate Athletic As- riation opened its annual meet- ink here yesterday, confronted wfth a “sanity code” issue that istened a major rift, art E. Lieb, president of the NpAA, issued a preliminary blast the controversial question, sug- ting that schools that can’t Imply with the code get out oT big time football. iveral southern schools, includ ing the* University of Virginia, promise a battle to the finish on the two-year-year code which sharply restricts subsidisation of athletes. Loib said more than 20,000 schools admitted last summer non- compliance with the code. He said, however, 14 promised to behave, and were put on probabtion. ‘‘.Seven schools have openly said they can’t comply and don’t in tend! to," Leib declared. The NCAA never has disclosed the seven schools, but four are kho^n- They are Virginia Tech, Virginia Military, The Citadel, and Vifiinia. A special compliance committee which has investigated the schools is e tpeeted to bring its report be fore the NCAA 1 executive commit tee today. X Ifl the executing committee ap proves a inotion to expel the eol- legeis from the NCAA, it must be approved by a vote of two-thirds of the (delegates at a general ses sion) Saturday. Expulsion would mean the schools could not play NCAA members, in any sport. . Ags To Meet TU Saturday Eight Players ToldSituation Dallas, Jan. 11—n.

Goats Caught By Cowhands Parramore Island, Va., Jan. 11 —i/P'—The Texans got their goats. Cowboys Cliff Clary and Joe \Whitehead, baffled for days by the dnery clitters, reported success Monday night. Already corraled are 500 of the wild goat herd which has overrun this AHantip Ocean strand. They’re, ready _ for the six-mile boat tpip \o the mainland and a trait) ride tq, Texas. Mdie are tiring driven from the brush and thickets that cover this three by 12-mile\jsland and tomor row will mark thC\end of the first phase’ of the last roundup. That's when Clary and Wnitehear begin the first overwater ftqul . in flat- boats. The pretty well heralded 1- up ran afoul of bad weath it week after Clary and Wh id had completed the preli y business of building roundu s. But from now on, the is said, things will be different. The sponsors of the roundup, Texas ranchers Perciy Roberts of San Angelo and Lewis Smithyrjch of San Saba, came up to super vise the operation They brought a sheep dog with them. The dog, accustomed to digging goats or sheep out of tough places, gave a good performance on his first! time out on a Seaside round up. With Clary and Whitehead ridjing herd and the dog-matching bark for bleat with stragglers the goats began to enter the pens. How the goats behave on the boat ride to the railhead tomorrow is a matter for wind, tide and Tex an.
