which brought forth two breaks be-
tween traditional rivals for big Ten"
! gridiron supremacy
Ohio State. Conference champions,
will not meet Wisconsin, 1920 runner
up next year, the two schools severing
football relations after an argument
over where the game should be played
Chicago failed to schedule game with
Michigan.
While it was announced at first by
the coaches that all athletic relations
between Ohio State and Wisconsin had
been severed, it developed later that
the two schools would carry out con-
tracts already made for athletic con-
tests, eliminating any chance for can
collation. of basketball or baseball
| games.
Wisconsin played Ohio State at CO.
| lumbus this year, losing IL to Z, and
| Coach John Richards to-day insisted
! that II a contest was played In 1871 IL
| should be at Madison. Coach Wilce or
| Ohio State however, had been able to
arrange only three Western Conference
games at Columbus and maintained
| that Wisconsin should meet the Buck
eyes on their home grounds two years
| in succession. He pointed to the fact
| that several other schools followed this
plan TO give each team fair number
| of championship games at home.
| The coaches, however, were unaple 10
agree and football relations were sew
cred.
The Western Conference faculty COM
mittee voted to make numbering OF
players in football games compulsory,
| ruling that the numbers must be eight
inches high. easily distinguishaole ana
| that each coach must announce the num-
bers of his players week before inc
game. a,.
IL was ruled that football officials
who officiate in professional games MAJ
not act in Conference games.
It made the following awards OF attn
letic events:

ber 10.

Five places will count in track meets
instead of four as heretofore, the COM
mittee decided, and no team OF less than
five men will be allowed 10 eh'e' "'

western Conference basketball coaches
voted that player could be taken out
and put back in a game only once IN
each contest. and that held ball witnin
the free throw lane must be taken OUT
and put in play fifteen feet in front or

named, and minor details or the scneo-
ule previously announced completed.
Minnesota was left off the Illinois
! schedule this year, 1t being found I'M
possible 70 arrange suitable GATE.
Coach Richards of Wisconsin placed
the blame for the Wisconsln-Ohio state
break on Coach Wilce or ONO state
"Wilce formerly played under me, and
T taught him all he knows" said Rich
n ards For him to take the attitude he
maintained to-day Is beyond understand
inc we played at Columbus this year.
and II Is only fair for Ohio State to come
10 Madison next year. / can only say
that no Wisconsin eleven coached oy me
will ever meet an Ohio State team
again"
pr wilce said ut had been found i'm
nosslble for Ohio state to schedule the
game away from home. and Richarus
refused to play at Columbus, so no game
was scheduled"
Coaches stagg OF Chicago and Yost OF
Michigan both expressed disappointment
that their teams would not meet next
year

Western Conference notified the coaches
