School officials were to appear Sunday before the NCAA com mittee at Hilton Head Island, S.C., on the charges. “The NCAA Infractions Com mittee hearing on the University of Texas at Austin’s case has been postponed because of new infor mation developed late Saturday, April 25,” university president William H. Cunningham said in a prepared statement. Joyce Pole, UT Austin News Service director, said she did not know what type of new informa tion was received. The university was charged with violations ranging from players receiving cash loans to players selling complimentary game tickets at inflated prices. UT Athletic Director DeLoss Dodds and Cunningham had called the violations minor. But some officials said the alle gations against UT Austin, span ning 19 categories over a period of seven years, are similar to those that resulted in Southern Methodist University being placed on probation in 1981.
