ATHLETES ACTIONS
CAUSE DISCUSSION
High School Athletic Assn
Delegates Advocate Change
in Eligibility Rule.
SCHAEFERS' SUDDEN SHIFT

The transfer of athletes from one
high school to another in this city is
causing considerable discussion
among the delegates of the Newark
High Schools Athletic Association.
The close of the recent semester saw
several athletes change their al
legiance, and their action seems to
have stirred up the delegates.
Tt was advocated yesterday at
meeting of the delegates at the City
Hall that the present twenty-week
ineligibility rule covering such cases
of transfer be changed and the time
extended to forty weeks. 1t Is prob
able that such an amendment will be
made to the Newark H. S. A. A. con-
stitution.
The recent action of Jake Schaefer,
who won the State scholastic quar-
ter-mile championship under Bar
ringer colors at the Central games
and then changed to Central on the
following Monday, is said to have in
cited the discussion.
