THE BATTALION
Can Fixing Be Stopped?
Is Basketball Worthwhile?
By HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Associated Press Sports Writer
Two years ago they were saying
it couldn’t happen here—shaving
points in basketball.
The Southwest Conference, they
said, didn’t have folks like that.
Its basketball wasn’t of the caliber
to attract the gamblers and fixers.
It wasn’t high-powered as in the
east and mid-west. They played
for fun down here.
The recruiting was on a reason
able plane. There was no summer
basketball where the gamblers and
fixers might make their initial
contacts.
THERE WERE no inducement^
that called for money under the
table. The recruiting wasn’t un
ethical and didn’t give the boys the
idea that the college folks weren’t
so high-minded after all and that
they wouldn’t really be doing any
worse than the recruiters if they
accepted payoffs to throw basket
ball games.
But it was indicated that the fix
ers thought the Southwest Confer
ence was as good a place as any
to rig basketball games. Anywhere
there was a contest that attracted
attention was a place for shaving
points so that a killing could be
made on the betting line.
And it didn’t necessarily have to
be the players anyway.
Thus came the confei'ence’s first
scandal. No one ever was put in
legal jeopardy but a legislative in
vestigation was designed to bring
into the open some dark suspicions.
The conference folks expressed
the belief that some officials had
shaved points although nothing
could be legally proved.
THUS, the alleged fixing was,
stowed away as a sort of bad
dream. General opinion was that
the agitation that had come would
put a halt to any further shenani
gans.
Now, that should have taken care
of it, shouldn’t it? The players
weren’t going* to get into the thing
and there was no other angle from
which it might be worked.
But what about the students?
One at Rice was reported to
have offered a bribe to two .players
to shave points. It was nipped in
the bud when the players told
school officials about it.
But it left everybody pretty well
shaken up. There were just too
many angles to the thing. The
idea began forming that it was
going to be impossible to keep the
fix out of basketball.
