before a threatened rally had a
chance to materialize. Hallahan
pitched the Bluffs TO victory Sunday

BELMONT IS

Involved in Personal
Controv Is
Said To Be Reason
For Regents Move

AUSTIN, Tex, Oct. 2.-tP)-For Il
years director Of athletics at Texas
University, L. Theo Belmont was on,
of a job today because the University
board of regents concurred in the
presidents conclusion that "Mr. Bell
mont is so deeply involved in per
sonal controversies" he would not
aid in restoring harmony to the in
stitution.
President II. Y. Benedict made his
report TO the regents last night and
that body adopted il, relieving Mr.
Belmont effective Dec. l and ap-
pointing DR.. II. J. Ettlinger. profes-
sor Of mathematics and former ath-
lete, 10 become acting director al
that time.
Mr.. B~enedict's findings were based
on his observations Tor q period OF
one year, ended this summer, In
which Belmont had been placed on
probation" as a result Of q faculty
committees investigation.
That committees report exonerated
the director on specific items alleged
by various students and never made
public, nevertheless il discussed his
asserted decline in usefulness TO the
school because Of his disagreements
said TO have been with W. J.. billy
Disch, aged baseball coach, and z.
j. Stewart. former FOOTBALL coach.
Belmont had offered no statement
today, saying he preferred to wait
until notified officially of the boards
action.
Benedict's report 10 the regents
last night also declared he had found
"a large body of permanent opposi-
ton 10 Mr.. Belmont remains"
Though no official statement ever
has been issued concerning the
charges against the official. most or
them are known to concern his ad-
m~inistration.
Among Bellmont's outstanding &C
complishments at Texas were prom
inent participation in a 1928 drive
which led TO erection of what is said
70 be the biggest stadium in the
South; inauguration Of the annual
Texas University relays and the pro
motion OF the s2-mile Tarahumara
