Mohawks and Apaches. perennial pig

The Apaches, offshootS of the older
Mohawk aggregation, are looking
forward this year to a victory over
the older and heavier southeast team,
even though the pre-game betting
odds. prevailing against them at to

be leaning toward the older team.
That the Hawks take their former
juvenile team seriously is shown by
the way they are training for the
combat.
Coach Lionel LEVY had his Apache
squad working far into the night
last night under arc lights at Union
League Park, while at Clark Griffith

his Mohawk charges through a fast

hawks earlier in the season, the

so it is to be assumed that If the

The play is covered by rule TO-

ana have this board appoint officials
for all games. Whether or not this is
done, 1t seems certain that a maxi

may go above that amount. For one

Each year there are several appli-

against taking in new members.
Whether or not this sentiment will

changes in the regulations governing
athletics and other matters Of this
annual sket ball tournament, held
in Atlanta; the annual championship
track and field meet, the annual cham
pionship cross country run, the an
nual tennis tournament, and other
sports.
Besides the championships in track,
tennis, basket ball, cross country, 1t
is reported that a definite move will
be made to have the conference
sponsor a boxing tournament. Many
of the conference schools, especially
in the South Atlantic section, have
boxing teams and are anxious for
such a get-together of boxers from all
the conference schools. Whether or
not this will materialize depends en-
tirely on the view that may be taken
of boxing as a college sport by the
ma ajority Of representatives of fnsti-
tutions making up the conference.
Whatever may be the disposition of
the many changes proposed. whatever
may be accomplished in the way OF
arrangements for more widespread
intra mural sports, 1t is likely that
considerable of a constructive nature
will come from the conference gather
ings. No meeting has taken place yet
