(AP) — Col lege players who get involved in Fights during games next season will risk losing their eligibility for the rest of the season under get-tough mea sures announced Wednesday. “We’re interested in minimizing the ugly scenes. One ugly scene is too many as far as I’m concerned,” Ed Steitz, secretary-editor of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Rules Com mittee said at a news conference. “We cannot afford to let anything mar this great game of college bas ketball.” Steitz said following the commit tee’s two-day meeting that players suspended for “being involved in Fighting” would have no way to ap peal. Fights made headlines through out the past season. There were none during the NCAA Tourna ment, after NCAA Executive Direc tor Dick Schultz warned that any player fighting would be suspended for the rest of the tournament. The policy announced Wednes day specifies that a player involved in a Fight will be ejected from the game and placed on probation. “The second time that individual is involved in a fight during the sea son, he will be ejected from the game and suspended from participation in his team’s next game,” Steitz said. “If that player is involved in a third fight during the season, he will be suspended for the remainder of the season. If available, and deemed necessary, television monitors may be used to determine those individu als involved in a fight,” he said. Steitz also said any bench person nel other than the head coach who enters the court during a Fight is subject to disqualification for the re mainder of a game. “We’ve got to knock this Fighting oFf. I don’t think we’ve pushed the panic button,” Steitz said. “I think we have to have machinery in place to serve as a deterrent.” Some coaches immediately raised questions about the new rule. “I would like to see an appeal available,” said Gary Williams of Ohio State. “This is a lot different than a trav eling call, or maybe a fifth foul called on the wrong player. Those are a part of basketball. But this is not. I just want it to be just. If a mistake is made, it should be correctible.” Lon Kruger of Kansas State said, “I think anything we can do to mini mize the number of occasions that are not healthy for the game is good for the game. And I think putting a rule in place would be a move in that direction.” But Kruger also saw the possibility of problems arising. “There would be a need to define what constitutes a fight so we can be consistent with enforcement. Does a shove one game get the same thing as an all out fisticuff in the next?” he asked. Remarks’ final results positive — Campanis LOS ANGELES (AP) — Looking back over the past year, A1 Campanis said the outgrowth of his remarks on blacks in baseball has been positive for him and for the game. “Time has diffused the immediate hurt of April 6,” he said. “It has turned out to be a plus for baseball and myself.” A year ago, Campanis sat alone in a chair near home plate in Houston’s Astrodome and faced a television camera. Wearing an earphone, he fielded questions from Ted Koppel in New York, on ABC’s “Nightline.” Responding to Koppel’s questions, Campanis ^aid that ,blacks “may not have some qf the necessities” to be baseball managers and general man agers. Groups such as the NAACP and the Urban League insisted that the Dodgers sever their tie with Cam panis. Many of the nation’s promi nent blacks commented on his re marks. Campanis said he was only trying to say that blacks had turned down opportunities to manage in the mi nors, so they lacked the experience for major league jobs. His remarks he said, were mistakes in semantics. Within a few days, Campanis was fired by Dodger owner Peter O’Mal ley. Baseball Commissioner Peter Ue berroth, who already had dedicated the season to Jackie Robinson and expressed concern over the lack of minorities in baseball management, hired a consulting firm to work with major league clubs on affirmative ac tion programs. Campanis has been helping de velop the pool and has also helped to set up baseball management clinics for minorities. The former Dodger executive spoke recently to some stu dents at Cal-Berkeley. “I concluded my speech by telling them that if losing my job with the Dodgers has helped blacks. I’m happy it happened,” Campanis said. “It was a shock at the time, but if I contributed to increased employ ment of minorities, I feel it was worthwhile.” Nicklaus to rest of field: ‘Look out for me this week’ AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — “Look out for me this week,” Jack Nicklaus said. Nicklaus smiled when he said it, but Greg Norman was not sure he was kidding. “He’s playing well. And he’s added about 30 yards with that new metal-wood driver,” Norman said after a practice session for the 52nd Masters which begins Thursday. “It’s given him a lot more confi dence, and that’s really all he needs,” Norman said. But despite the presence of Nick laus and the younger members of the American tour, Australian Nor man and two other foreign stars command the most attention going into golFs first major tournament of the spring. “It’s there to be done, isn’t it?” said Sandy Lyle of Scotland, the for mer British Open champion who en hanced his standing last week with his second victory of the season on the American tour, which made him the year’s leading money-winner. “I’m ready,” was the terse com ment of Spaniard Seve Ballesteros, who has won twice and come close so many other times. “Seve is playing very well,” said Norman. “You can’t look past him to find a favorite. “He’s won before. And he’s lost before. That’s almost as important as winning,” Norman said.
