Itot while college and university administrators agree its illegal and unethical to tamper with athletes sold on enrolling in rival schools, there is nothing in the rules to prevent administrations from raiding the athletic department of another school, to woo its head coach. 93-7- For the Redskins, the victory was their tenth of the season. 90-7- The University of Utah will play UCLA for the championship of the Los Angeles Classic Wednesday night at 10 p.m. over KAIL. Top-seede- d 84-7- Tops Devils The Blue Devils were led by Jim Murphy, who scored 29 points, 20 of diem in the second period. Murphy simply could not miss. He scored eight of last 10 points and was the big difference between the two but theyll never have a tougher winning effort, Hero of thnUte triumph was little Skip Kroeger, who knotted the count with his jump shet and won it with his lay up with a minute left to play. ls Kroeger turned In a scoring effort, his best of the year. Shares Role Kroeger shared the hero role with Granny Lash, the rotund little forward who popped in 19 points for runnerup scoring honors for the Redskins. But the big man on the floor, as far as the scoring went, was Chris Pervall, who potted 30 There should be two exceptions. If a coach has quit, or hasT'been released, then he would be eligible to, accept a position at another institution. But a head1 coach under contract should not be considered for a coaching vacancy. The NCAA should enforce such a rule. . If memory serves correctly, only four head coaches have been signed away from other schools by universities in the area. t University of Utah signed Jack Gardner and Jack Curtice, both head coaches at the time; Denver signed John Roning from Utah State and Wyoming signed Bill Strannigan from Iowa State. The other head coaches came up from the ranks of the assistant coaches, which is the right way.

On the Air Its easy for the athletic board, faced with" the problem of hiring a new coach, to scan the field and pluck a winning coach from a member institution. Consequently, when Phil Dickens quit at Indiana and Bill Baines dropped from the UCLA scene, the rumors immediately began to fly, linking Tommy Prothro of Oregon State and Ray Nagel of Utah with the UCLA job and Bob Devaney of Nebraska with Indiana. The Hoosiers also wish to talk to Nagel. This is wrohg' and the NCAA should do something about It. Devaney, Nagel and Pfofhro were hired. from the ranks of assistant coaches and they developed into winning head coaches. So, rather than recruit established coaches, let the schools seeking new coaches develop their own head men, as others had - fifta-ranke- Leave Head Coach Alone teams.
