SPORTING UNIONS HAVE OPEN BREAK
Amateur Athletic Body ill Con-
 trol Of Olympic Plans

Washington, Nov. 1s.-(P- An open break between rival national sports governing groups existed to- day, the continuation of a long pe- riod of strife, as an aftermath to the launching of the 1928 American Olympic organization.
 The latest clash has left the anna teur athletic union more dominant than ever and in complete control of the plans for this country's par ticipation in the Olympic games at Amsterdam. Holland. two years hence.
 The quadrennial meeting of the American Olympic association, a perpetual body which merely sets in motion every four years the actual working machinery. furnished the setting for this climax to an authen- tic conflict that has found the A. A. U. arrayed for years against group headed by the national collegiate athletic association and more re- gently including the national ama- teur federation and the Y. NJ. c. A. It ended in a sweeping triumph for the A. A. U. forces who put into of- flee their entire ticket, headed by William c. Prout of Boston, as suc- cessor to Col. Robert M. Thompson in the presidency of both the Olym- pic association and newly formed Olympic committee.
 There were all the clements of pitched battle In the session of dele gates of some two score athletic or ganizations yesterday. Thrust back in the opening skirmishes, the A. A. U. gathered such strength as the progressed through a maze of legislative matters that opposing forces, led by Brig. Gen. Palmer F. Pierce of New York, president of the National Collegiate A. A., withdrew from participation in the session and resigned from all com- mittee memberships rendered them.
 This is the first time such pro- nounced split has marked the differ ences between these groups. Its ef- feet on Olympic preparations, in view of the wide influence of the N. c. A. A.. In college ranks, is sub ject to speculation. It Is not likely that the organizations led by Gen. Pierce will withdraw as units of the Olympic organization, but working for common International aims seems indefinitely suspended.

H0RWEEN TO STAY WITH

Former Football Star and Head Coach of Crimson Announces
 Decision at Rally.

Cambridge. Mass, Nov. IS Rl- explained the Harvard eleven in 1920, and who came from the west this year to become head coach of football. will stay with the Crimson at least another year.
 The greatest football rally seen here in many years heard Horween announced his decision last night. Three thousand undergraduates crowded the Harvard Union to cheer Horween and the team which on Saturady will meet Yale at the New Haven Bowl in the final game of the Big Three.
 Announcement of the lineup which will do battle with Yale wa- not forthcoming although some ink ling of the assignments for the big game had been expected. Several positions were still undecided it ws5 said and it was considered better strategy to keep Tad Jones' charges guessing.

his willingness to fight for that pro- moter if satisfactory terms could be arranged. Rickard admitted that he had no more than a verbal agree ment with Tunney under which the champion was to meet the winner of an elimination series this winter among leading contenders.
 Fugazy will discuss the matter further with Tunney next Tuesday, he announced, and on that date the champion will explain his reasons for splitting with Rickard, FugaZy said. Tunney is reported dissatis- fled with the financial returns of his fight with Dempsey in Philadel- phia when he received s204,000, ac- cording to Rickard. The original agreement called for Tunney to re- ceive a flat guarantee of 15 per cent of the gate receipts, which would have amounted to $300,000, but a new arrangement was made shortly before the fight took place.

INVITE COUNCILS
 ID DISCUSS BREAK
Yale Interested in Confab Be- tween Harvard and Princeton

New Haven, Conn, Nov. IS P- Efforts Of Princeton and Harvard student councils to bring about a conference to discuss the recent 1 breach in their athletic relations have been watched with interest" by the Yale college councils and an invitation has been extended to the two councils to meet in the offices of the Yale council here Saturday.
 The invitation sent to Leo Daley president of the Harvard student council, and Joseph Prendergast, president of the Princeton student council follows:
 "The Yale student councils have watched with interest the develop ment of plans for joint meeting of representatives of the Harvard and Princeton councils in New Haven Saturday to discuss the recent breach in athletic relations. On be- half of the Yale councils, we cordial ly invite you to meet in the offices of the Yale college council at any hour you may appoint"
 The telegram is signed by James o. Flower, president of the student council of the Sheffield Scientific school and Russell l.. Post, president of the student council of Yale col lege.
 The Yale Daily News, comment ing on the proposed meeting of representatives of Princeton and Harvard. says today:
 "The announcement that repre- sentatives of Harvard and Princeton will meet to discuss the possibility of resuming athletic relations arouses an acute hope. Yale Uni versity has greatly regretted the train of events which have led to the separation. There has been no time at which the sentiment of the uni yersi has not been in favor Of do- ing or saying anything which might have prevented d break. Yet there has obviously been nothing which Yale could do. Even now, our only possible contribution to the reunion is to say that, were it possible, we would consider it a priviledge to help in the establishment of am icable relations. This we do say, most emphatically.'

Differences Between American and Britain Associations to Be Ironed Out.

New York, Nov. IS R-Long standing differences between Ameri- can and British golf associations over dates for title fixtures involving international linksmen were before United States Golf association execu- tives today for definite settlement.
 Dates for the 1927 open cham pionship in the United States have been tentatively set for June 23. A and 2o at the Oakmont, Pennsyl- vania club, the same week which the British have set for their open tour nament.
 Efforts have been made by Ameri- can golf officials for several years to have the British open played earlier ir the season, arguing that the midsummer heat in the Emitted States makes tournament play un- bearable while the English courses reach their peak condition much earlier than those in America.

It is be- lieved, however, that French and Guarnaccia will not be on the field at the kickoff.

 The padded-mitt game, already boosting Monte Mum, of Nebraska, Sully Montgomery, of Centre, and other college athletes among the heavyweights, may find the name of Earl Britton, famous running mate of Red Grange at Illinois, added to the roll. Britton has asked Promot- CT Humbert Fugazy for a bout in New York soon. "T. N. T." Lassman, giant tackle of the undefeated New York University Violets. intends to enter the ring upon graduation.
 Trouble has loomed on and off the gridiron for many star players this season. Quarterback Baysinger re- signed from the Syracuse squad after attempting to punch Referoe Schwartz during the rough Army game of Oct. 16. Harold Cothran, Lafayette's star tackle and a likely All-American prospect, has been dropped from the team for breach of training rules. Two Nebraska griders, Roy Mandery end, and Jug" Brown, crack halfback, were arrested recently in raid on stu dent gamblers in Lincoln.
 A welterweight terror has arrived in New York from Everton, Wash ington. in Jimmy Jackie" Johnson, a youth brought from the open spaces by Charley Cook, manager of Abe Attel, Godstein and Eddie Huffman.
