  Unlv Players Seen With `Fixer`
  LAS VEGAS — More problems surfaced for the troubled UNLV basketball program Sunday when a newspaper published photos of three members of the 1990 championship team with a convicted sports-event fixer.
  UNLV President Robert Maxson responded by saying the continuing problems with the Runnin` Rebels are tarnishing the entire university.
  ``Not only am I extremely concerned about this whole situation, but it also makes me angry,`` Maxson said. ``News articles like this not only tarnish the basketball program and those associated with it, but it tarnishes the university as well.``
  Maxson said he will meet with UNLV coach Jerry Tarkanian to discuss the latest problems. He said Tarkanian had warned players to stay away from Richard ``The Fixer`` Perry, who is part of an NCAA investigation of the Rebel program.
  Sunday`s Las Vegas Review-Journal published photos of Perry with David Butler, Anderson Hunt and Moses Scurry at Perry`s Las Vegas home. The newspaper said the photos were taken near the start of the 1989-90 season.
  In 1974 he was convicted of federal charges related to fixing harness races at the Roosevelt and Yonkers racetracks in New York. He was sentenced to prison and fined in that case.
  NCAA bylaws bar involvement in gambling activities or any conduct that the association deems unethical. Violations of the bylaws could cost players their eligibility.
