LOS ANGELES, Sept. 30.-George
H. Breslin, Los Angeles attorney,
admitted today that his firm. Smith
and Breslin, had been engaged to
plead a 100000 suit for damages
filed by Charles Hoff, worlds cham
pion pole vaulter. against the Anna
teur Athletic Union.
Hoff, who was barred and cut off
from expense money several months
ago when he failed to keep a SEIZED
uled appearance in San Francisco,
claimed the A. A. u. not only forced
him to become a professional, but
added insult to injury by inducing
immigration officials to order him
out Of the country.
The Norwegian athlete, who has
been reaping a rich harvest as a
vaudeville entertainer, received word
from the immigration service in
Washington that he must leave the
country by October Is, as the Sec
rotary of Labor had denied his plea
for extension.
Hoff named three individual A.
A. U. officials as defendants in his
suit, w. c. Prout, F. w. Ruben,
executives Of the National A. A. u,
and Bob" Weaver, president Of
the southern Pacific branch Of the
