SAYS STAGE IS
AFTER NOT0RIETY
New York Sun Special Service.


New York. July 4.-Regarding the statement
Of Coach Stage of Chicago university that the
conference colleges will accept the discus record
of Garrels despite its rejection by the A. A. IT,,
James Z. Sullivan, chairman of the record COM
mittee of the A. A. u. said: 49, ..r
''Stagg is looking for little cheap notoriety.
1t is immaterial to the A. A. U. what stand
the conference colleges take with regard to Gar
rels record. If they willing to put fake
record on their books. nobody stop them.
This discus Of Garrels correct in weight,
but wrong in shape. and evidently made to suit
his special knack In throwing. The A. A. U.
prescribes how the shot, hammer and ''56''
shall be .shaped, how the pole for vaulting shall
be made, and it is the way with the
discus. but when some genius appears with a
special discus that gives him advantage over
another man, the A. a. U. always refuses to
accept his record If these special weights and
contrivances were allowed to go the A. A. U
record list would soon become farce.
"Garrels' record will not be accepted by the
A. A. U. Neither will it receive the official rec
ognition Of the English A. A., the Australian
A. u. This is case where Stages bluffs don
