More Basketball Players
Included In Scandal Probe
By The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The spreading-
college basketball scandal involved
12 more players from nine addi
tional colleges Wednesday, raising
the total in the New York investi
gation alone to 25 players and 1C
schools.
Investigation Continues
The probe is continuing, said
Dist. Atty. Frank S. Hogan as he
made the new disclosures. In ad
dition to the New York action,
North Carolina authorities have
charged three North Caroline
State basketball players with ac
cepting bribes to shave points.
Present revelations may only
have scratched the surface, offi
cials indicated. The current in
quiry threatens to dwarf the 1951
mess which implicated 33 players
from 7 colleges.
Three players—one from New
York University and two from St.
John’s University (NY)—were
named as bribe takers by Hogan.
One from the State University
of Iowa and one from Dayton Uni
versity—were named as interme
diaries. And seven from six col
leges-:—St. Bonaventure, Colorado,
St. John’s (NY), Seattle, Niagara
and Bradley—were said by Hogan
to have received and rejected but
failed to report bribe offers.
Hogan emphasized there is no
criminal penalty for failure to re
port a bribe offer. He added,
however, that such a failure might
violate the regulations of the in
dividual school.
New List Revealed
The New York County district
attorney revealed the new list of
involved players in announcing the
indictment of Joseph Haeken, 48,
New York, oh 17 counts of bribery
in the corruption of basketball
players and one count of conspir-
ucy. He also named David Budin,
l. former physical education teach
er at a Brooklyn Junior High
School, as a co-cohspirator.
Haeken, and Aaron Wagman, a
copvicted New York football fix
er, were arrested March 17 when
Hogan first broke open the new
basketball scandals. Wagman if
in prison, in lieu of $60,000 bail
awaiting trial.
Raymond Paprocky of New York
University, was said by Hogan to
have accepted $1,300 from Haeken
to fix four games last season.
Michael Parent! and William
Chrystal of St. John’s were named
by Hogan as having allegedly re
ceived $4,450 each to fix five
games during the 1956-57 season
the last season for the players.
Freshmen Caught
Hogan said the intermediaries
were two freshmen from Brooklyn
—Cornelius Hawkins of Iowa, who
recently left school, and Roger
Brown of Dayton. The district
attorney said Brown received $250

Associated Press Sports Writer
This is the time of the year
when high school athletes can run
afoul of the Texas Interscholastic
League amateur rule if they don’t
know the ramifications of this
strict regulation or if they think
they can get away with a viola
tion.
There have been many boys for
feit their high school eligibility
for doing what the rule says they
can’t.
The first big case, one that
brought the rule into focus, oc
curred ‘in the early forties. It
involved Jitter McKinney, a great
football player at Lufkin High
School. It was all very innocent
and neither McKinney nor those
who made the gift knew they were
violating a rule.
A group of fans got up a fund
to buy McKinney a suit of clothes.
It occurred during the off season
and Lufkin itself asked for a rul
ing. The district committee found
McKinney ineligible.
Undoubtedly most of the viola
tions are through ignorance of
the regulation. Thus, it is well
that the schoolboys be warned
-^ach year in the press and that
the coaches and school officials
instruct the athletes thoroughly on
the rule.
One pf the sports that has given
major trouble is rodeo, especially
iunior rodeo for boys not over 21
vears of age. The promoters of
the rodeos persist in wanting to
give valuable prizes for attain-
U. S. foreign trade is booming
and so is the demand for college
graduates trained in that field,
according to international trade
specialists at The American In
stitute for Foreign Trade, world-
earned post-graduate school in
Phoenix Arizona, for the ' train
ing of young college graduates
genuinely interested in a career
overseas with U. S. business or
government.
R. S. Roberts, vice president of
The American Institute and
widely-known foreign trade au
thority, who last year completed
11 years in Brazil as a Sears of
Brazil executive, as the origina
tor of the first supermarket
chain in Brazil, and finally as a
consultant to U. S., foreign, and
Brazilian firms, said that U. S.
international businesses had in
vested $32 billion overseas as of
last year, representing a 17.2%
average increase per year. He
placed the earnings from these
foreign investments at $3 billion,
700 million. U. S. foi'eign sales
totaled $64 billion, with exports
at $21 billion and sales by U. S.
foreign subsidiaries at $43 bil
lion of the total.
Roberts, a 1948 graduate of the
Institute, applauded the major
role played by the 3,000 gradu
ates of this 15-year-old school in
the meteoric rise of U. S. foreign
trade.
Senator Barry Goldwater, Ari
zona, member of the Institute
board of directors, in a recent
speech on the U. S. Senate floor,
called American Institute alumni
“America’s best-trained and most
highly-respected corps of goodwill
ambassadors.” He described the
Institute as private industry’s
training ground for its corps of
junior executives in 78 foreign
nations.
Graduates in liberal arts, busi
ness administration, and science

America frm St. John’s (NY).
Sylvester Blye, 23, New Ym-k,
Seattle sophomore who played
basketball for • a week and was
barred as a professional.
Salvatore Vergopia, 22, New
York, Niagara, who played during
the 1958-59 season.
James Robinson, 21, Chicago,

Hogan said Saunders had re
jected Hacken’s bribe offers but
had accepted $200 for spending
money from Haeken.
ment. There is the celebrated calf
scramble whereby a boy who
catches a calf may keep the ani
mal. The League worked out a
plan under which he can own a
calf if he keeps it for a year, feeds
it, grooms it and shows it. The
League will consider that the boy
has earned the calf.
The amateur rule means that
any student who receives cash or
valuable consideration for teach
ing, officiating or participating in
athletics will be considered a pro
fessional and will have to forfeit
any high school eligibility he has
remaining.
The boy cannot compete on an
athletic team with a paid player
nor can he allow his name to be
used for the promotion of any
product, plan or service.
The League considers these
sports to be under the scope of
the amateur rule: baseball, basket
ball, bowling, boxing, football,
golf, rodeo events, softball, swim
ming and diving, tennis, track,
weight lifting and wrestling.
A boy cannot accept anything
considered valuable consideration
frpm the promoters of these
sports. In a golf tournament a
boy can take only something of
symbolic nature, like a cup or
medal; he can not take a golf bag,
a set of club or a batch of golf
balls. Moreover, the boy can not
play with a professional although
he can play against him. He can
receive instructions from a pro
fessional.
are sought annually at The Amer
ican Institute for Foreign Trade
by more than 500 U. S. interna
tional business and banking firms.
Fifty percent of the 1960-61 grad
uates had college majors in liberal
arts or sciences. Forty-five per
cent had majored in business ad
ministration.
Cited by U. S. and foreign in
dustrialists, educators, and high
government officials as America’s
most effectual institution for the
practical training of college grad
uates in foreign trade, The Amer
ican Institute offers a 3-part cur
riculum designed to train its po
tential junior executives in day-
] to-day foreign trade techniques,
the living culture of the peoples of
world market areas, and a foreign
language. Recruiters from U. S.
international firms have made it
clear that they equate general cul
tural knowledgeability, a properly-
adjusted attitude toward an over
seas career, and aptitude when
they select Institute graduates.
About 250 carefully-screened
young men are graduated yearly.
The post-graduate course of study
lasts two semesters and starts
from the beginning both in Sep
tember and in January.
Industry and government offi
cials say there is no institution of
comparable stature where deter
mined college graduates may so
effectively groom themselves for
a lucrative career abroad. Senator
Goldwater predicts that most Am
ericans who become business lead
ers in trade centers around the
world in the next few years will
have been trained “specifically at
The American Institute for For
eign Trade.” (For more detailed

Two Physical Education
.Professors Become Authors
Two A&M physical education
professors, Les Palmer and Emil
Mamaliga, have become authors
of two different books within the
past year.
One of the books demonstrates
how to build up your body with
the use of weights while the other
gives the fundamentals of base
ball.
Palmer, who is a graduate of
A&M, is one of the head scouts
for the Los Angeles Angels in the
American League. He had assist
ance in writing the book from
Wally Moon, a former Aggie base
ball player and star outfielder of
the Los Angeles Dodgers, and A1
Monchak, a manager in the Mil
waukee Brave chain. The book’s
title is “Baseball Fundamentals
for Fathers and Sons.”
Palmer’s book is recommended
for all persons interested in the
game of baseball. J. B. Carroll,
Fish baseball coach, said, “You
don’t i-eally realize how little you
know about baseball until you have
read this book.”
Mamaliga, a graduate of Ohio
State and diving coach, has com
piled all his knowledge, in the art
of weight training and has come
up with a book that he says wil'
help anyone in gaining or losing
weight.
Aggie Golfer Ties

Johnny Johnson, a junior from
Harlingen and member of the Ag
gie golf team, tied for top honors
in the Cameron Invitation Golf
