QUESTIONS OF ELIGIBILITY CAUSE
 UPHEAVAL IN WESTERN FOOTBALL

Chicago, Nov. "A new upheaval in western conference football cir cles over the eligibility of players was seen today in the simultaneous an- aouncement that two stars-Donald AIurry of the University of Wisconsin and Ellison R. Augur, of Illinois had been barred.
 The protest against Murry WIS made by Coach Suppke of Illinois, and upon being notified that the player had been declared ineligible, Coach John R. Richards of Wisconsin, declared that he. would protest five members of the Illinois squad. Richards was quoted as saying he was much disappointed ct the loss of Murry from the game with Minndsota Saturday. ...
 The debarment of Augur and Mur- ry came as an echo of the famous Taylorville- -CarlinYille professional game of last fall which resulted in the virtual disruption of both the No- tre Dame and Illinois football squads, all of the members of the teams who took part in the contest being ruled out of further participation in con- ference athletics.
 Richards declared that he would fight the Murry case to a finish in the hope of having the ban removed. igible, many other players in the con- ference are also. In the case of Illi- nois, he named Green, Angus, Yates, Robinson and Durant, all of whom he said had violated the regulations of the conference.
 The first, eligibility troubles devel- oped this year when Ohio State pro- l tested two Michigan players, one of | them being Roby, star halfback.

FULLER ORDERS NEW SHELL BUILT FOR HARVARD CREW

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 2-The new eight-oared shell constructed by Will liam Lutz, head boat builder at liar yard, along certain swell-defined lines outlined by rowing heads year ago, has been discarded and Coach F. J. Fuller will not ever permit the second varsity to use it, it was learned today. For the rowing campaign next. spring another shell Is to be. built by Lutz which is expected to be much faster than it's predecessor.
 According to Coach Fuller the bow of last years shell rode from three to four inches under water at all times, whereas he believes that it should be clear of the water as~far back as IS inches, especially at the finish of a stroke.
 Probably. the biggest fall season in history of rowing will be brought to close Friday. During the season there were as many as AT crews on the wa ter in one day, and, including scul- lers, more than 800 men were parti- cipating in some branch of the sport.

RICHEST STAKE IN
 HISTORY AT PIMLIco

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 1.-The rich est purse ever offered for horse race will be the prize at Pimlico Satur- day afternoon. Provided thirty colts and fillies pay the $1,00O entry fee in the Pimlico Futurity, to which will be added the nomination fees of ST. 050 from the two year olds nominated and the $S0,000 of the Maryland Joe key club, the total purse will aggre- gate $117,050. This is the highest stake in the history of the sport in this country or abroad.
 Since it is impossible to start thir- ty horses at one time, unless they be started in two rows, the race will be run in two sections. The purse will be half of the main pool or $58,525. The conditions of the race as listed by. the Maryland Jockey club, call for the division of $12,500 among the second, third and fourth horses to finish a..- between the owner and breeder of the winner. Thts would make first money in each race worth $46.050. The sec ond horse will receive $5,0p0, the third $2,500 and the fourth S1,O60.

WALKERs CLIMB TO -.-.-. FAME IS RAPID

The rsw worlds welterweight cham
 pion enjoys the distinction of an sun-
 usually rapid rise to the estate of a ring title holder. Mickey Walker has been boxing for about three years, sae- cording to available records. This con- trasts strongly with the length of ser vice of Jack Britton, the remarkable ring veteran who bowed in defeat t6 the new champion Wednesday night. Walker still was in swaddling clothes when Britton was engaged on his mer
 itorious ring career. The dethroned champions career, dates back as far as 1904. Walker is but 20 years old. He is R=resldent of Elizabeth, N.
 Walker has all the attributes of a champion. Tn addition he has a per- sonality which is expected to make him one, of the most popular ring ti- tleholders of the present day. A quiet retiring, unobtrusive chap, Walker in appearance strikes one as a college student rather than an exponent of the strenuous ring sport. He has none of the marks of his trade. He carries none of the evidences of the punches he has absorbed from rivals. His con- duct in and out of the ring is@every- thing that it should be, in perfect harmony with the ring champion as he Is accepted in this day of enlight- ened and advanced pugilism. q
 Because of his short career, per- haps, the available record books do not dlgnify Walker with a detailed biography. His is a condensed biogr raphy. Walker has boxed s a number of the countryt best welterweigl1ts and in his successive bouts gradually worked his way to the egposition of be- ing recognized as a foremost contend . CT, for the class title. His listed rivals against all of whom Walker acquit- ted himself admirably, include Dave Shade, California welterweight who held Britton to draw last winter; Nate Slegel, New England champion; Marcel Thomas, French welterweight; Harlem Eddy Kelly, Marty Summers Johnny Summers, Charley Pitts, Aus tralian boxer; Shamus O'Brien, rug ged Yonkers welterweights and Brit ton. Walkers engagement with. Brit ton last year in a Newark ring was the turning point in the Elizabeth boxers career. Knocked down4by the champion in the first round, Walker survived the initial fusillade of ths champion, and in a remarkable recov. cry accumulated enough points to re. eeive the ma jorfty newspaper decision the following day. Following thil match Walker pressed Bfittoi for ( return bout; to fan~,offiefal decision Walkers campaign had It's success. tul1 climax last night. .i .s
