THE BATTALION Page 8 College Station, Texas Wednesday, April 28, 1971 mi I )M ” ■* • * Xm» ~ - League officials to discuss issues ' -»!» “'S'* ' -iXv * Sx: ' % . . ^1^. <• ' By JOHN CURYLO Assistant Sports Editor While the best in the Southwest Conference are fighting it out in track, golf, and tennis this week end, officials of all the member schools will be having their spring meetings to discuss a number of issues. The series of meetings will be gin Thursday afternoon and con tinue through Sunday, and per haps even Monday. To top off the spring meets and the many talks at the Ramada Inn, the conference title in base ball will go to the winner of the A&M-Texas series to be played at Kyle Field Monday and Tuesday. Probably the biggest item on the agenda will be a report of the Southwest Conference Expansion Feasibility Committee; in other words, the admission of the Uni versity of Houston to the SWC. Along the lines of scholastics and eligibility, there will be a report of the committee appointed to submit possible changes in the SWC Withdrawal Rule. This in cludes regulations regulating stu dents withdrawing from school during a semester, the possibility of counting summer school work toward athletic eligibility, and a possible change in the nine hour minimum requirement rule for thletic eligibility. Another consideration will be that involving the amount allowed for incidental expenses for stu dents on athletic scholarships. SWC rules allow only $10 per month, but the National Col legiate Athletic Conference regu lations place the limit at $20 a month. Conference members may change by-laws which allow a school participating in a football bowl game to retain $100,000 plus >/6 of the remainder of the share of bowl receipts. Studies will be made of the seating arrangements at basket ball games, particularly concern ing the location of seats allotted to students of visiting schools at intra-conference games. The track schedule for next year will receive a hard look, also. 1971 is the last year that the intra-conference track schedule was projected. A decision will be made on whether to continue it, and, if so, how many dates will be assigned. A chang-e will be studied in golf scheduling and maybe in the medals which are awarded win ners of conference meet events. Still another rule change will be scrutinized, this one regarding students who have spent 18 months or longer in the armed services. On top of all these items will be the usual business discussed and acted on at conference get togethers. These include consid eration of recruiting problems and review of agreements and regulations, selection of sites and dates for the 1971 cross country meet and the 1972 golf, track, tennis, and swimming meets. Also, selection of site and date AM P4J.S1 NOW SHOWING HELD OVER BY POPULAR DEMAND Showtimes: 1:30-4 p. m. 6:40-9:15 “AIRPORT” KZUBS STARTS TODAY 2 James Bond Hits Sean Connery In “THUNDER BALL” & ‘YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE’ QUEEN LAST NITE - ADULT ART 7 - 9 “FEMALE ANIMAL” Skyway Twin WEST SCREEN AT 8:20 P.
