AMERICA IS READY
 FOR OLYMPIC MEET
A. A. U. Officials Say a Very
 Strong Team Can Be Selected

New York, Feb. 11.----"Ame merica athletic team to the next Olympic games regardless of the time or place, which may be designated" This was the answer of prominent amateur athletic union officials at New York to the query of the Swedish athletic association made through United States Minister Morris at Stockholm recently.
 The track and field authorities of this country have been actively en- gagged since the signing of the ar mistice in preparing for worldwide revival in competitive athletics and the implied desire of the Swedish as sociation to re-esta bliSh the Olympic games did not occasion surprise in amateur athletic union circles. Swe- den acted as host to athletes from all parts Of the world in the meet Of 1912 and the imposing stadium built for the contests still stands.
 Sweden, however, is not the only nation which desired to hold the games and it is probable that a con- ference of the international Olympic games committee will be necessary in the near future. upon this phase ot the situation especially if the meet Is to be staged in 1920 as appears prob able.
 Whatever the date the Olympic games will be preceded by several in ternational track meets of more or less formal character either in this coun- trv or Europe. The Swedish athletic association has already cabled to the amateur athletic union, suggesting an international meet in this country next autumn and offering to send team of 5 athletes for competition against a picked American combina- ton. No decision has been reached as yet on the proposal owing to the heavy expenses which such an under taking involves. If certain contingent cies which are under consideration eventuate this meet will probably ap- pear as a part of the feature events of the sport schedule of 1919.

The much heralded basketball con- test between the Wentworth club and the Professional men, was staged last evening at the Y. M. c. A., and when the smoke of the battle cleared away the Pros" were on top, score 62 to S2. There was a good sized crowd on hand to witness the fray and plenty or excitement abounded. Although beaten, the Wentworth boys showed very good sportsmanship, and their clean playing was one of the features Referee Warren S. Slater, did not call foul during the game.
 Smedley Gets Five.
 For the losers, the work of Smedley and Vessels stood out as the bright feature for that quintet The former Trinity star played a whirlwind game, caging five baskets, and his defensive work prevented the Pros from run- ming up a much larger score. The work of Smedley electrified the crowd on numerous occasions. Playing a. guard position, the stocky journalist during the closing moments of the game, took a hand at tossing em in with the result that he established a. new season record for himself with five counters. He was given rousing cheer for the mastery he displayed at caging the ball.
 Pros Display Class.
 The winners, although more aged than their opponents, displayed plenty of pep. The work of "BilT' Mangan, Bert Loomis, Johnny Kiniry and Harry Roche, proved the undoing of the Main street boys. Loomis led in the scoring, with 12 baskets with Mangan second with 10. F'iniry made a spectacular shot from the cen ter of the floor. Greenberg, Green stein and Rachlin also performed well.

MCGRAW AN ARBITER
Giants Manage to Try and Adjust Differences Between Hal Chase and Cincinnati Club.

New York, Feb. 11.-John McGraw, manager of the Giants who returned yesterday from the middle west, will attempt to bring about a settlement between the Cincinnati club and Hal Chase, the famous first baseman, &C., quilted by the National league last week of charges of crookedness.
 Chase must drop his suit against ceive permission to offer him a con- tract.
 McGraw had a conference with August Hermann, president of the Cincinnati club in Cincinnati last Thursday on the Chase problem, and Hermann agreed to release the play CT to New York if Hal dismisses his suit against the Reds for the salary he lost by reason of his indefinite sus- pension last summer. The amount in volved is close to $2,000.
 ''I talked to Hermann in Cincin- natl, but we will be unable to do any, thing about Chase until he drops his suit" said McGraw
 It was learned that McGraw has been empowered by Hermann to rep resent the Cincinnati club and settle the salary dispute out of court. Now that the National league has acquit- ted Chase baseball owners do not want the case threshed out in the Ohio courts. Besides Chase would be almost sure to win. The fact that he was cleared by the league can only be taken to mean that his indefinite suspension by the Cincinnati club was without justification.

CHANGES AT PENN
Dean Mcclellan Puts Ban on Four Near Clause Governing Various Athletics.

Philadelphia, Feb. 11,-According to the new code just given out by Dean Mcclellan of Pennsylvania the university now has a set of rules to govern the eligibility of it's athletes in intercollegiate competitions. The most important change in the new code is the three year rule, in which any Quaker athlete is prohibited from representing Pennsylvania in intercol- legiate play for more than three years, whereas the former period was four years
 The text of this rule is:
 No student shall represent one or more universities or colleges of the Carnegie list in Intercollegiate ath- letics for more than three years, but any student who has engaged in con- test or practice with any team or crew of the university during the col lege year 1917 to 1918 shall remain eligible, under the eligibility rules of the University of Pennsylvania. of 1916 to 1917, to the extent of one year more'
 At first it was feared that the new rules would prevent former Pennsyl- from participating in games, out Dean Mcclellan defines the rule as being non-retroactive only applicable to men entering since January 1, 1919.
