Herman Obertubbesing, N. Y.
Candidate, One of Three
Seeking Presidency.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Nov 1.-THE
names of three candidates had been an
nounced tonight in the contest for
president of the Amateur Athletic
Union, in annual session here. The
election win be held to-morI ow. determi-
nation of championship awards and
various proposals for amendment of the
constitution having been disposed OF
to-day.
Those now In the race for the presi-
dency are Robert S. Weaver of Los
Angeles. Herman Obertubbesing of New
York and Harry w. Fitzpatrick of New
Orleans. The name of William S. Had
dock, Pittsburg, has also been men,
toned as possible candidate
Sharp discussion preceded the adop-
ton of the recommendation of Barlow
S. Weeks. chairman of the legislation
committee, that army and navy athletes
be permitted to compete under Amateur
Athletic Union auspices without regis
tration. The amendment carried with 1t
a requirement that service men be reg
istered by the army or navy to insure
their amateur standing.
Clause Added to Rule.
The convention added clause to the
amateur rule providing that participa-
ton in any compensation or award
contest as an official would impair
amateur standing. 1t also decided to
leave to local associations the deter
mination of the question involved in the
proposal to extend to high school play
ers the summer baseball rule applying
now to college men.
The championship committee had a
big Job on hand when 1t considered the
awarding of the different title features
for 1921. and OF the long list, the most
important was the track and field, which
went TO the Los Angeles A.C. of Los
Angeles, Cal. 1t is the second time
within five years that the national
meet has been given to the Pacific
Coast, and 1t is very doubtful If the
athletes of the East will relish such
journey, nor will the clubs from the
East, Middle West or South be expected
to send teams on account Of the cost.
When the meet was sanctioned to the
San Francisco in 1915 the Eastern COM
petitors were limited to less than
dozen, so 1t is safe to say that bare
half dozen will cover the Eastern patron
age to Los Angeles. The same site was
selected for the wrestling championship,
while the national boxing championship
was Civ IN 10 Boston. Greensburg, Pa,
will have the senior gymnastics, and
Kansas City has been honored with the

BAN TO REMAIN ON
JOCKEY SHILLING
August Belmont Says Jockey
Club VIII Not Reopen
Case This Year.
BLAMES j. X. L. Ross
Declares Canadian THURMAN
and His Trainer Showed Dis
loyalty to Racing.
by HENRY V. KING.

There is little chance Of Carroll Shil-
ling being granted Jockeys license by
the Jockey Club this year. Major
August Belmont. chairman. announced
yesterday that his organization had no
intention Of reopening the former
Jockeys case at It's meeting here next
Thursday. In an interview at his office
Major Belmont showed that he was
chagrined at Commander J. X. L. Ross
and his trainer, Guy Bedwell, for at
tempting to have Shilling reinstated,
and placed no blame on the Maryland
State Racing Commissioners, which
sgave Shilling a temporary license last
week. He said that Commander Ross
was not loyal to the Jockey Club nor
TO racing itself, and that the Maryland
commission, which has given proof of
it's interest in the sport made regret
able mistake.
After stating that Commander Ross
and rep 'esentatives fthe Maryland
commission have the privilege of at
tending the meeting here Thursday,
Major Belmont said:
Perhaps 1t would be well TO outline
the situation so that the matter can be
thoroughly understood.
First. as to Shilling. When the Incl
dent took place for which he was sus-
pended and his case was referred to the
Jockey Club he had already created
feeling of mistrust and suspicion 80 tnar
when he committed a definite breach OF
the rules, exposing himself to punish
ment the opportunity was promptly
seized to discipline him. The following
spring he applied for license, and at
fro int lie
asked for the privilege OF riding. Due
consideration was always given, but the
stewards of the Jockey Club have felt
that it was for the best interests of
racing that Shilling should not again
ride in races under its Jurisdiction,
though he was granted license to train
in order that he might make a living.
