'Erring'
baseball coach
receives DepEd memo
JAYME PRESSED TO
ANSWER ALLEGATIONS OF CHEATING
BY CEDELF TUPAS
A memorandum asking baseball coach Narciso Jayme 72 hours to explain in writing the reason for his alleged fielding of an ineligible player during the regional Palaro last week in Roxas City was issued yesterday by Supt. Eva Belecina of the Negros Occidental Schools Division.
The deadline will lapse on Sunday since Jayme, who coached the Negros secondary boys' baseball squad, received the memorandum only yesterday, but Belecina said he will most likely be given until Monday to submit his explanation.
She said the possible sanction on the erring baseball
mentor from Dr. Antonio Lizares Memorial High School in Dos Hermanas,
Talisay, will be determined after a careful evaluation of his explanation.

The Asian Challenge Cup, featuring FIFA developmental countries,
is set next month in Bangladesh with the Philippines kicking off
its stint against Chinese Taipei on April 1. |
