Decision ReserUed IN an Effort to
Get His Records Back.

Argument was made and decision rendered by
Justice Fitzgerald in the Supreme Court yes
terday upon the application of Arthur +. Duffy,
the sprinter for a mandatory injunction re-
straining the Amateur Athletic Union from re-
fuSng to retain Duffy's name and records on its
official records and also from expunging his
name and records from the official athletic al
manac of which James E. Sullivan. the secre-
tary and treasurer OF the a. A. T., is the
editor
c. f Rogers. counsel for Duffy quoted from
the official athletic almanac a statement by the
editor in which he said he had taken upon HIM
self TO expunge the name Of Duffy from the
publication, and that within year at least his
name would have been expunged from ALI rec
ords OF all college and other amateur athletic
bodies.
MIR Rogers said Duffy was registered ANA
terr and had never ceased to be such, and that
the action of the A. a. L. was arbitrary and
unjust
barlow S. Weeks on behalf of the a. A L.,
claimed the application for an injunction must
be denied az It was attempt by a mandatory
Injunction to mandamus uninCOrpOrated or
ganiZation which could not be done. Mr.. Weeks
Contended further, that the A. a. u. had al
ready expunged Duffy name from its records,
as IL had right to do, being the judge as TO
what records It should recognize, and could not
be enioined from the commission of an act al
ready committed
