HUBBARD
TURNS PRO

De Hart Hubbard, the greatest
broad jumper the world has ever
known. is the latest amateur to
find the lure Of gold stronger than
pride in his amateur status. Con.
verting his athletic prowess to a
pecuniary advantage, Hubbard is
now touring the country with u
team of professional basketball
players, and never again will be
permitted to engage in amateur
athletic competition.
Arising to his greatest heights in
his last day of competition under
University of Michigan colors in
1925, Hubbard. a negro, set the ex-
listing worlds record of 25 feet los
inches for the running broad jump
and sprinted a hundred yards in 9.S
seconds in the same afternoon.
IntilMates of Hubbard were
unable to state - because they
weren't Sure''-Whether, when
the basketball season had end.
ed, he would attempt to cap.
italize his ability as a track
and field performer.
1t was pointed out, however, that
with Joie Ray and other less prom
inent athletes already deprived of
their amateur status, some ventur.
some promoter may endeavor to
put across the professional track
idea in the near future.
In his fou. years at Michigan,
Hubbard established an envialbla
record. not only as a running broad
jumper. but as an all-around per-
former of exceptional merit, AS a
broad jumper Hubbard turned in
his greatest achievements, setting
a worlds record of "a feet 715
inches in his only indoor effort last
year. and leaping over 25 feet at
least q dozen occasions outdoors.
Five years ago it was believed
that only superman could
leap over 25 feet. In the last d
year or so speculation con.
cerned the probability of Hub.
bard ever leaping rs feet.
The Western Conference record
of 9.74 seconds for 100 yards was
set by Hubbard a week before he
made his worlds outdoor broad
jump mark He is probably the
best hop, step and jump man in
the country, though he has not
sought fame in that field for some
time. He can high jump six feet
and he is a flashy hurdler.

as a, consequence lost two games.
BY winning three they would have

Another team OF brothers is in

particularly to the Veihmeyers and
Donaldsons, who started it all.
The Donaldsons now have q long

The Walkers want to meet the win.

A large majority OF the American

endangerlng their investments by
shaking the confidence OF the public
with ali these squabbles. and that
the only way to bring. harmony will
be to shelve him before 1t is too late.
Ban johnson, with Charlie ComiS-'
key, was the founder of the league,
and the magnates will show their
sportsmanship by retiring him on &C.
count of III health. He will not be
discharged outright. But he must
be muzzled, and the only way to
make that sure is to retire him on a
pension and appoint a successor who
can work in harmony with Judge

This Johnson has refused to do.
