BAN ON FOREIGN
 ATHLETE IS NOT
 APPROVED HERE
Proposal of Pacific Coast A. A. U. Not Favored in
 East.

New York, Oct. 15-The proposal, advanced by the Pacific Coast Asso- citation of the Amateur Athletic Union, to bar all foreign athletes from flu ture competition in national cham pionship meets, finds little favor among Eastern athletic authorities and followers of track and field sports. The concensus of opinion in- dicates that it would be a most pe- culiar action for the American ath- letc organization to take, as athletes from the states have for years been the most consistent travelling com petitors and prize winners.
 It was pointed out by a prominent A. A U. authority that there might be some reason for such a proposal on the part of the Canadian Union, in view of the fact that in past years strong teams from the New York A. C., and the Irish-American A. O., have journeyed to Canada and swept away every first prize and title at the annual Dominion championships. American athletes also have been prominent winners of titular track and field honors in similar meets in England, Scandinavia, and other European countries. In every case our athletes have been welcomed and where they were good enough to de- feat the best of the home entrants there was nothing but praise for their performances.
 The menace of the foreign athletic invader is furthermore of little dan ger Very few have been able in the past to show their heels to the best of the American stars, as the records of both home championships and Olympic games clearly demonstrate. It would undoubtedly be an impetus to greater and better effort if few invading performers could be found to. show the way to our stars. It IS the generally expressed opinion that after peace reigns again throughout the world there will be great revival of international sport competition. With this thought uppermost in the minds of the delegates who gather for the annual meeting of the A. A. U, at Philadelphia on Nov. IS, there appears little possibility of the adop- ton of the proposed resolution.
 In swimming circles, however, quite the reverse is true and there will be long list of claims submitted, the majority of which are likely to be given official sanction. They Include new records for both short and long distance competitions and the names of several prominent women swim mers will figure in the list.
 Those records which are accepted, will be tabulated as new American figures with an annotation to the eff feet that they surpass the present world records. They cannot, how ever, be officially accepted, as such until passed upon by the International Amateur Athletic Federation, which has not held a meeting since the be- ginning of the European war. After the cessation of hostilities the l. A A. F., will convene again and at that session will. have many records from many lands to consider and pass Judgment upon. It is interesting tc note that at the present time the United States and the Scandinavia countries lead in the number of S'aim: to.be submitted.

COLUMBIA STAR
 BACK ON TEAM AFTER LEAVING
Canapery, Backield veter- an Sent to Southern
 Training Camp Returns

Columbia regained a supposedly lost football player yesterday, when Frank Canapery returned to the campus af- ter having been started on the way South with detachment headed for the machine gun school at Camp Han cock, Ga.
 Canapery, who was a regular in the backfield last year, was counted ill to fill an assignment on the s. A. T. c. eleven, and his departure left a hole which Coach Dawson was en- deavoring to fill Canapery will be back in the lineup this afternoon.
 Negotiations for a game with Cor nell have been held up because of the illness of Lowering Tyson, graduate manager of athletics at Columbia, Tyson is not expected to return to his desk for several days and in the meantime the status of the Cornell ne- gotiations remains unchanged.
 Brin, centre of the New York Uni versIty eleven year ago, who was selected to play that position on the Columbia eleven, was unable to re- port for practice yesterday. His place was taken by Kinnenger, a substitute last year.
 The war has affected the supply of bandages for the football squad and players who came in from the field with cuts and bruises were told by Trainer Gus Peterson that they would have to get along as well as they could with innprovised bandages.
 The varsity was unable to score against the scrub eleven, although the former carried the ball edwards down the field to the scrubs 2O-yard line where they lost it on an intercepted forward pass.

DON'T KNOW DODGERS NAMES

Much delay and confusion in get ing returns to the questionnaires sent out by the draft boards of the city has been caused by the managers of lodging and boarding houses who are unfamiliar with the names of their lodgers. Many questionnaires have been returned undelivered owing to this cause. Many of the regis trants not receiving the questionnaires at the time expected have called at their draft boards and found the questionnaires returned, mot known here," by the landlord or 1andlady. Men whose questionnaires are not fll- ed out are classed as slackers, many times without fault upon their part.

It was on Oct Is, 1910, just eight years ago today, that Stanley Ketchel was shot and killed by Walter Dipley at Conway, Mo. Billy Papke claimed the honors after the passing of his old rival, but the Illinois Thunder bolt was not equal to the job. Cyclone Johnny Thompson claimed the title after whipping Papke in 1911, and then followed a host of self-style niddleweight champions - Frank Klaus, George Chip, Al Mccoy, Young Ahearn, Jimmy Clabby, Jack Dillon, Eddie McGoorty, Les Darcy, Mike Gibbons and several others. Most of these claimants were good men, but none of them measured up to the lamented Steve"
