ball players attending junior colleges

from linebacker to defensive end
this season by tying for third on the
team in tackles.

Ejection and technicals lea
to probation for Yates coacl
AUSTIN (AP) — The University
Interscholastic League on Thursday
placed the girls’ basketball coach at
Houston Yates on probation for one
year after hearing a report that she
had been ejected from a game in a
Thanksgiving tournament at Grape-
land.
Assistant coach Von Donna
Bircher also was publicly repri
manded.
Former assistant girls’ basketball
coach Carl Brown of Yates received
the same penalty from a three-mem
ber UIL committee.
Brown already has been dismissed
as a coach, according to Yates Princi
pal Joseph Drayton.
A report from UIL director Bai
ley Marshall to the committee said
Bircher drew a technical foul for yel
ling at officials in a Nov. 26 game,
and on Nov. 27 she asked that game
officials be changed for alleged ra
cial reasons.
In a Nov. 28 game, she was
ejected after protesting a technical
foul called on Brown, according to
the assistant coach himself.
The UIL director’s report said
Brown was ejected from the Nov. 26
game for a flagrant technical foul af
ter yelling at a referee.
Brown also was assessed a techni
cal during the Nov. 28 game, Mar
shall said.
Marshall’s report was based on in
formation from Bill Avera of Jack
sonville, district director of the
Southwest Basketball Officials Asso
ciation, and two other officials, Jerry
Smelley and Bill Jones, both from
Jacksonville.
The report by Smelley and Jones
said after the Nov. 28 game a fan
identified as Bircher’s husband came
out of the stands wanting to fight the
two officials.
Drayton said Brown had been re
lieved of his duties as assistant coach.
Bircher had been placed on trial
probation for the remainder of the
season; and the coach’s husband has
been instructed not to attend any
Yates basketball games.
“We did not come here to raise a
racial issue,” Drayton told the com
mittee.
