Hold National Amateur

the three national ampionships---
namely, the amateur open and wom-
ems events. The list is then to be
presented at the meeting and the
selection of the courses over which the
attractions are to be conte ended for
shall be determined by votes of the
delegates.
1t is thought that the New York dis
trict is in line for the amateur chara-
pionship, which has not been decided
hereabouts since 1913, when it was
held at Garden City. In way
the Piping Rock and Nassau organi-
zations would be an ideal combina-
ton to hold the qualifying round, with
the match play phase confined entirely
to Piping Rock. Another possibility
IN Long Island comprises the Engi-
reers' Country Club and the nearby
North Shore circuit
Baltimore and St. Louis clubs are
anxious to hold the amateur. At the
last annual meeting the Maryland
organization registered hid for 1920
1t is expected that the competition
will also be keen for the open and
women's events.

Drastic steps are to be taken by
the registration committee Of the
Metropolitan Association of the A.
A. u. to curb those athletes who
persist in wearing spiked shoes in
contests in local armories against
the N. Y. N. G. regulations.
Jacob w. Stumpf, chairman of the
committee. declared yesterday that
a close watch would be kept on all
athletes, particularly those who are
now under suspicion Of taking this
unfair advantage against rivals.
Should these offenders be caught
prior to the start of an event, they
will be Immediately disqualified and
severely dealt with by the commit

ON Speed to Offset Heav-
ier Men of the Violet

The Columbia University basketball
FIVE will open its season tonight,
when N. Y. U. comes to Morningside
Heights. The Blue and White tossers
have been practicing hard all week to
prepare for this contest, but are badly
handicapped by the late start. Coach
kld Benson only assumed his new
duties this week, so that he has not
had much of en opportunity to whip
his team into shape.
But the work outs all week have
been exceptionally long and hard, so
that the coach has pretty good line
on the men he will call upon. AS the
team. has had practically no time to
get in Any formation drilling, the
game tonight will be decided largely
on individual effort All those who
will start the game against the Vio-
let have, however, played in previous
years. at least as substitutes, so they
may be called experienced men.
Captain Tommy Farrell Sam Vein
stein and Johnson are all veterans Of
last season and have the advantage of
having played together
N. Y. U. has practically the same
five that went through the season last
year so successfully, and is a danger

The freshmen Of the two colleges will
open the evening in preliminary con-
test at 1880 o'clock. The big game of
the evening is expected to get under

Match Sure in 1920

The direct challenge issued by Car
penter to Dempsey to fight for the
worlds heavyweight championship
virtually assures match during the
coming year The American title
holder has expressed his Willingness to
ACE the French boxer. and there re-
mains only the agreement on the terms
and conditions to govern the contest.
When the articles of agreement
finally are signed it will be found that
al former purses and similar induce
ments given to championship heavy
weights in the past will have been
dwarfed into insignifcance bv the
sums to be handed to the boxers for
fhe first international ring battle of
Importance IN many years.
Jack Johnson and jim Jeffres divided
sl0l 900 for their Reno bout, and the
Willard Dempsey purse at Toledo
amounted to almost $l5O,00o
Dempsey and Carpenter are quite
likely to battle for purse approx
.nately twice as large as that offered
Or the Willard Dempsey match. The
division probably will be arranged upon
2 60 and 40 per cent basis. the former
share to 60 to the winner or the pres
ent titleholder, as the agreement may
eall for.
Many Seeking Bout
Several American and European fight
promoters of strong financial standing
are already endeavoring to sign the
swo heavyweights to binding contracts
he contest to secure their signatures
promises to be bitter and exciting
struggle, in which sums running into
hundreds of thousands of dollars will
be offered in turn by rival promoters.
The date of the bout can be set down
or midsummer, but the location of the
rng is q matter of much speculation.
Shrewd ring followers express much
doubt that England would supply the
huge gate receipts necessary to sue
cessfully finance such huge match, as
neither Of the contestant would have
the drawing power of Brton.
Owing to the intense French pride in
the ring achievements of Carpenter.
France probably would supply record
gate, but there is some doubt whether
Dempsey would agree to box Carpenter
there unless certain restrictions were
placed in the articles Of agreement.
The impression appears to be.growing

Associations has decided to use the
volunteer plan in securing Abilene's
quota for the Victory loan. In al
most every instance where this plan
has been tried it has proved success
full. Salina has used the volunteer
plan with satisfactory results and 1t
seems that there should be no reason
why Abilene citizens should not come
across voluntarily as they have done
in other praces. Thursday, Friday
and Saturday, May 1, 2 and 3, will
be volunteer days In Abilene. Dur
ing this period every Abilene citizen
should come forth voluntarily and
hand his subscription to his banker.
This plan was followed in the Fourth

ceeded its quota nearly $4,000.
