Stanford Joins Coast
Amateur Body
Decides Upon Afffafion With
the Pacific Athletic As
s0ciafiOn
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Oct Il
stanford university, long an independ-
ent FACTOR in athletic affairs on the
coast, will affiliate from now on with
the Pacific. athletic association. At the
meeting of the executive committee last
night 1T was decided to ask for ad-
mission to the amateur governing body.
This step has been urged by the off,
clals OF the Pacific athletic association
Tor the last five years and the under
graduate executives upon each occa-
sion have turned a deaf ear to the
proposition The objection of the car
olnal representatives was that the Pa
clnc athletic association was not on
sound basis. With the complete re-
organization of the amateur. governing
pody this objection has disappeared and
the formerS enemies of .affiiiation now
welcome the move.
prominent among those who were
strongly against afflliation last year,
but now believe it is for the best in
terests Aof the university, is DR.. Frank
Angel. chairman of the faculty COM
m1ttee on athletics.
While the change in control is but
a nominal one, there are many Under
graduates who feel the loss of the
former Independence of this university.
Under the terms of the affiliation the
Pacific athletic association officials will
not have the power to interfere in in
tercollegiate athletics. The revenue of
the association will be increased ma
terially by the students who take out
cards.

Arcadia May Be Closed
By Racing Powers
spEcIAL nIsPArcH no. .THE GALL

Los ANGELES; Oct, 1.-State Senator
Frank W. Eeavitt of :Oakland. who led
the fight against. the anti-raeetraclx
gambling bill. at the last regular
session of the legislature, came to Los
Angeles today. With him came a re-
vival of the ruinor that Arcadia track
might. be closed in aid of the effort to
head off any further attack by the
state law makers: .Eeavitt owns the
program privilege at Emsryville and is
deeply interested.
. Tom Williams is said to he willing to
sacrifice Arcadia racetrack If by so do
ing he can keep hands off Emeryville
and as it is asserted that the principal
opposition to tie game comes from
southern California it is believed by
racing promoters that if Arcadia be
closed there will be little TO fear from
the next legislature.
Should the fight in the Legislature be-
come TOO hot IT is said. Williams is
ready with compromise. by which
racing would -be. limited to 80 days in
each county: This would kill Arcadia
as a. 80 day meeting there would be un-
profitable. but il merely would have
the effect of causing a jump from
Emeryville to Tanforan and later to
other available points in nearby coun-
ties. extending the San Francisco sea-
son over a period of several months.

SMITH MAY FIGHT
FOR SCOTT'S SEAT
Fistic Encounter Yesterday
in Wheeling Widens Breach
Between Men.

WHEELING. W. Va. Sept. To-day
there is hot talk among those higher
up in West Virginia Republican poll
tics, that sounds like s. C. Smith will
be candidate for UniteI States SEN
ator. against Senator Nathan B. Scott
as a result Of the fstic encounter be
tween the two in one Of Wheeling's most
prominent banks yesterday.
Smith still refuses 10 entertain the
idea Of a peace conference with the
Ssiuuds of the Senator, who Is today
confined TO his apartments In the STRAIT
ford Hotel. at Woodlawn, nursing
bruises and abrasiOns as a result of the
encounter. He still declines 10 make any
comment on the trouble. while Smith
desires as little said as possible.
Friends OF both men, however, are get
ting busy in order 10 effect a truce but
those in position 10 know say that the
split is one not so easily smOOthed OVer,
and that IL viii be war TO the knife
hereafter between the two.
The talk of Smiths possible candidacy
for the United States Senate IS not al
together new, but It was revived after
the trouble yesterday, and his strength
in his party in this State would make
him a formidable opponent Of Senator
Scott
Yesterday afternoon Scott approached
Smith. and demanded 10 know why he
had said in Parkersburg speech that
the United States Senators in West Nir-
ginia had been bought for years. Smith
explained that he had said the Senator
ship, had been bought at public auction.
The lie was passed and the encounter
started.
Thev fought three minutes before they
were separated by bank officials. Smith,
who is fifteen years younger than the
Senator, sustained only a few slight
bruises.
