Texas, which lost to Oklaho ma 28-22 last Saturday, is rank ed 16th in the country. The penalty handed out late Tuesday did not include sanc tions and the university’s foot ball team remains eligible for television appearances and post season football bowl games. The probation involved the recruitment of a football pros pect during the 1981-82 acade mic year and the sale of com plimentary football tickets by a former player during the 1978- 79 academic year. Texas officials said they were disappointed by the recruitment infraction, but said they would not appeal the committee deci sion. “I do not believe however that the NCAA’s findings of a violation is supported by the bulk of the evidence,” Universi ty of Texas President Peter Flawn said. “I am of course pleased that no unethical con duct was found nor any sanc tions imposed. We shall not appeal the committee’s ruling.” Harry M. Cross, acting chair of the NCAA Committee on In fractions, said: “The NCAA conducted an investigation of the university’s complimentary ticket policies, and the available information indicated that the 1978 transaction was an isolated incident that did not involve in stitutional personnel.” YEAJ4,90RC ®¥=>EBAu_'e> Moyr 04&RI9M&P 1J3APITION, HONOR AMP A PRlV/l LG&t, F££L REAL HUMgLE BLAH CAN 'iOU TAKE ONER,TANK? 1 THINK 1 GOTTA GO BAT.

LOUIS —Gorman Thomas has one of those razor- sharp minds. He’s sort of a phrase-maker without portfolio for the Milwaukee Brewers and with that faculty of his for sizing up someone in a hurry, it didn’t take him any time at all to come up with the perfect handle for Mike Caldwell. “Mr. Warmth” was the label Thomas attached to him when he got to know him fairly well four years ago and now all the other Brewers call Caldwell that. The name wasn’t meant to be particulary complimentary, but Caldwell understands and likes it well enough he usually wears a T-shirt underneath his uniform blouse that says “Mr. Warmth.” A small space in the right place makes.. .

Anyway, he had the shirt on and it helped to keep the chill off Tuesday night when the shopworn, 33-year-old lefth anded sinkerballer, picked the World Series opener to pitch his best game of the year. Caldwell got the St. Louis Cardinals to beat the ball into the artificial turf all night and stopped them on three hits in one of those old fashioned, 10-0 butt kickings. That was what Whitey Her zog called what happened to his favored Cardinals. “I’m glad it was only one game and not a doubleheader," the Cards’ manager elaborated. Referring specifically to Cald well, he said, “You gotta give credit where credits due. He pitched a hell of a fine game. I brought the infield in by the third inning because 1 knew we’d have trouble getting runs.” Trouble was hardly the word. Caldwell mixed up his sinker and slider magnificently to stay ahead of the hitters and keep the ball down all night in getting 14 of them on ground balls and never permitting a Cardinal runner past second. The closest thing to any threat the Cardinals could mus ter was Darrell Porter’s two-out double in the second inning and a couple of inconsequential sing les Porter and Ken Oberkfell hit in the eighth. Meanwhile, the Brewers were manhandling Cardinals starter Bob Forsch and three relievers for 17 hits, including a World Series’ record five bv Paul Moli- tor, four more by Robin Yount and a home-coming home nip by former (Cardinal Ted mons.

On the days he pitch es you’re not supposed to tallao him. “His whole game is location, explained Pat Dobson, oneo! the Brewers’ two pitching coaches. “His biggest problem).' trying too hard and overthrow ing the ball. And, when he over throws, he’s dead.” Cal McLish, the Brewers other pitching coach agree! with Dobson and explain Caldwell is a “groundball pitch er.” “He pitches to take the sling out of the other guy’s bats, McLish said. What about him being Mr Warmth? McLish laughed. “He gives you that phonyonl- side, but he’s tender as a puppy, said McLish, letting the catom of the bag. “Not on the mound though.
