Yale's use of Jack Langer, a basketball player ruled ineligible by the NCAA, has led to the possibility that all of the games in which he plays will be forfeited to the opponent.

The ECAC, acting for the NCAA, has a meeting scheduled for Monday in New York City, at which the violation will be discussed. It will be the first time that one of the ECAC's 190-member colleges has violated such a ruling.

Played in Israel

Langer was designated ineligible because of his participation in the summer Maccabiah Games in Israel, which the NCAA chose not to sanction this year. When Langer said that he wished to play in Israel anyway. Yale supported him because it felt that he was being victimized by another AAU-NCAA power disagreement.

Yale's athletic director. Delaney Kiphuth, returned yesterday from New Orleans after addressing the NCAA infraction committee on the facts of the case. This committee will make a recommendation to the NCAA Council.

Apparently, there is also the possibility that the NCAA will ban post-season competition for Yale teams. This will not bother the basketball team. but the swimming squad is again among the best of the nation, and it would definitely suffer from such an action.

Oddly enough. the entire controversy has developed about a junior who averaged only three points a game last year and spent a significant amount of time on the bench. Yale insisted on his right to play and agreed to risk the consequences despite his lackluster performance.

Yale is not wavering one bit on the issue. "How can the ECAC throw us out?" asked Kiphuth. "They've never thrown anyone out," he told the Associated Press. Coach Joe Vancisin used Langer Wednesday night in the season opener against Fordham. and Langer may start Saturday against Connectiont.

Improvement Noted

He appears to be a much improved player this year. As the backup center behind John Whiston. Langer scored 18 points in a 93-63 loss to Fordham. "He was our only decent ball player that night." said Michael Goodman of the Yale Daily News.
