BROWER WILL
 RE NEW FIGHT FOR MEASUR E
Jefferson Senator Introduces
 Bill For Repeal Of Act Of 1911 In Which Event Mat
 ter Comes Under 1907 Act CITY COMMISSIONERS CALL FOR CONFERENCE Senate Committee Votes ITO 2 On Original Measure,
 placing UnfavorabIe Report
 On Birmingham Measure

Despite a temporary setback in his fight for viaducts in Birmingham Friday, when the senate committee on revision of laws adversed it's original viaduct measure by 2 to vote, Senator Walter Brewer, of Jefferson county plans to renew the
 ght next week. To this end, he introduced another bill Friday pro-
 iding for the repeal of the act of 1911, which applies to Birmingham alone, giving the city the right to share in the expense of construction of facilities of the kind now needed in Birmingham.
 Passage of this measure would re- turn the viaduct question of the 1907 act which places the cost of the con struction of yiaducts on the railroads but makes the city responsible for damage to contiguous and abutting properties. The bill placed on Che adverse calendar Friday provided for these costs to be borne by the rail- roads.
 Reports from the capital Friday were that the viaduct question mi ght be settled by returning to the 1907 law, as it was indicated in a recent committee meeting that such action would satisfy the railroads ana the city of Birminsham.
 After Early Aetion
 Senator Brewer said Friday night that he would give notice early next week that he would attempt to have the original bill taken from the adverse calendar. At the same time, he will make g fight for early action on the new measure. A duplicate bill will be introduced In the house Tues How l.z- rsF T1.FF delegation. he said The measure will be referred to the senate committee on revision of laws probably We'd osday, he first committee meeting of the week, he said
 Having failed for the present to obtain favorable action on the ori- ginal bill, I tiutroduced the measure repeating the law of 1911, which will throw the question back 10 the law of 1907," Senator Brewer said upon his return from Montgomery Friday night
 Adverse < Surprise
 Birmingham citizens interested in The underpass and Viaduct question were astonished Friday to hear that adverse action had been taken on the bill. after a strong delegation had pleaded so convincingly Thursday a week ago for a favorable report
 City commissioners said a confer euce would be held with Senator Brewer probably Saturday regarding the situation, making no other com ment His views are outlined above.
 W. E. Leeuy, Jr., chairman of the real estate board and citizens com mittces. said the committees were ready for further work and that the fight for the improvements was just getting under way.
 Saving possible litigation and ex- pense to all concerned, authorities say, was the only reason for the in- troduction of the Brewer bill, which clarifies the legal situation.

PROSPECTS
FADING
Athletic Authorities Warn of
Menace TO Athletic Pres
tige in indifference.

Prestige Of the United States Ia
Olympic track and field sports is
in grave danger Of diminished
in the, opinion OF competent ath-
letic authorities, including members
Of the 1890 team, who are In a
position to know conditions as
they exist at the present time. It
is a fact admitted by these fol
lowers Of the sport that aside from
what the colleges are doing in the
way OF the normal development
Of athletes for their own teams,
virtually no steps have been taken
by the Amateur Athletic Union or
any Of the other bodies having to
do directly or indirectly with track
and field athletics to work up en-.
thusiasm and build up material for
the 1924 Olympic team.
There is no question at all in
my mind said q man who was
prominently connected with the
team which competed at Antwerp
three years ago, that even should
the United States develop the best
team that is has ever had in the
history Of modern Olympic com.
petition. it's chances Of victory
would be- considerably less in 1924
than In any previous meet because
of the rapid strides that are being
made in athletics abroad. Hence
when 1t is remembered that. the
1924 games are only a matter of
fourteen or sixteen, months away
1t behooves our athletic authorities
to beetir themselves"

Lots Of Golf Stars
Among College
Players

College golf has developed ire
mendously in the past few years.
This fact was forcibly illustrated
recently when the u. s. G. A.
was selecting the team Of anna
tours which will leave for Eng
land on April Is. Jess Sweetser,
of Yale, the national champion;
Bobbie Jones, of Harvard, for
n1erly of Georgia Tech, and Rudy
Knepper, Princeton, formerly Of
Drake, were unanimously voted
places on the team.
Now the golf world Is in the
doldroms because studies will
prevent this brilliant trio from
making the trip.
Times have certainly changed,
Oscar.
Incidentally, Yale, Harvard
and Princeton, the ''Big Three"
of football can now truthfully
boast that they possess the "Big
Three" of golf-Sweetser, Jones

Lewis Is the greatest drawing card

about the mat with the amazing
speed for which the champion has
become famous is one OF the pr1n-
cipal topics of discussion with any
audience wherever Lewis appears.

wrestling crown before he goes
into action reveals super.man
Of the arena, with the power and

out the speed and pOise OF . light.
weight.
1t is doubtful If any wrestler in
the history of the ancient art Of the
mat ever combined so successfully
the principals Of speed, power and
brains that Lewis possesses.
A careful survey Of his physical
makeup il sufficient to assure even
the most skeptical critics OF his
ability to retain the championship
for an extended period OF time.
Lewis il something Of q curiosity
In the sport world. Out Of the ring
he ID the pleasant. affable gentleman
who could easily be- mistaken for q
big business man or an actor, but
once into action the well known
transformation of DR.. JekyH and
Mr. Hyde becomes apparent.
His features change from, the
atmosphere Of geniality and repoee
into those Of the fighter-aggres-
sivo, defiant ard determined.
With all his skill and reputation
a. q supreme handler OF men, Lewis
rarely loses his temper. He can
stand any manner OF punishment
without the show Of spleen that has
marred the careers Of 10 many other
Wrestlers.
His even tenor undoubtedly ac-
counts for much Of the success that
he has achieved in battling the best
men from the four corners OF the
world.
Lewis will come here from New
York where he has beaten several
powerful wrestlers. He IL said to
be in top form.
The Stranger has won his way to
the top by energetic, earnest en-
deavor. Seven years ago he wrestled
for SO a match. Today he COM

I would like to see the Far West

1t would help the sport immensely
and If Neville can do it the fact
alone will bring about some big
things in golf.
There il a lot of discussion AZ
to having championship In Cali

one who. would attend it in the
event the officials elect to have one
in that part of the country.
It might be helpful to suggest at
this time that some definite aid
might be given the Pacific coast
in this matter If the 1924 national
amateur championship were worked
out on this basis: Let there be re-
gional competitions. or in other
words, four preliminary series of
matches, the first twenty winning

fornia that would be for the title.
In event some boy won out In
his regional competition but was
financially unable TO make the
trip, the officials could help him
out with money, accruing from
gate receipt fees.
This would bring out the best of
championship timber and would
give every golfer a chance at the
title, regardless Of where he 10 or
what his circumstances in life
may be.
AS 1t is now, there are a lot OF
boys who cannot afford to take in
the championships since it is as diff
ficult for them to get to Chicago
or Boston as 1t would be for them
to go to California.
l have given only the toughest
outline of a thought on the subject,
with the hope that it may be a be.
ginning Of something definite at
least. hope also that Jack
Neville, the San Francisco star,
comes on with his game-so much
SO that he may jump from ninth

and at the same time perhaps Jump
California to place in the sun of
