WRESTLING WILL
 START THURSDAY
Polish Lion Meets Canadian
 Lumberjack in Hartford Bout

Hartford, October 2S - Wrestling makes its bow here for the fall and winter season Thursday night when Stan Stasiak, the Polish lion, meets Jack Rushell, the Canadian lumbers jack, in the feature bout.
 Stasiak, who stands 1t. and weighs 260, and Rushell who is a giant in his own right. are two of the most powerful men in the may game; their combined weight is more than 500 pounds so the ring at Foot Guard will be put to a real test.
 Under the new rule announced by State Athletic Commissioner Dono- hue, no more draw verdicts will be permitted in wrestling matches in this state so there must be decisionl in each of the bouts on this card.
 Paul Adams of Boston, who made a big hit at the Velodrome last sum- mer in bout with Fred Bruno, will, take on Farmer Bailey in a thirty minute match and Jack Ganson, the former collegian, will wrestle Joe Drake of Nek York in a bout which is on the card for forty-five min- q utes
 The star bout will be on the basis of best two out of three falls.

EAST ID BATTLE WEST SATURDAY
Ten Football Games for Week. End Had InterSeCtiOnaI Flavor

New York, Oct. 2S tF) - For those who like their football with a dash of intersecucnal flavor the pro- gram for the coming Saturday is one to tickle the pigskin fancy.
 Ten clashes on home and foreign fields pit the cast against the west from points as far away as Kansas and North Dakota, Oklahoma City University in the southwest and Mississippi College in the south. And there is a sprinkling of battles from in-betWeen.
 Princeton and Pittsburgh wander into far fields, the Tigers to tackle Amos A. Staggs warriors in a bat tie of the faltering at Chicago while the Partners of Pitt, chastened by Notre Dame, travel to Lincoln for a duel with Nebraskas Cornhuskers. North Dakota visits Army at West Point, Kansas invades Pennsylvania at Philadelphia, William and Mary comes to Harvard at Cambridge, Mass, Mississippi College is the vis- itor at Colgate in upper New York state, Marquette romps into Boston College at Boston, Wake Forest quits the south for a go at Temple in Philadelphia, and Davis Elllins entertains Oklahoma City in the hills of West Virginia. Duke is the guest within the walls of Villanova
 The remainder of the gridiron fare is scant but choice among the major clevens. Dartmouth. with one crack end, Stan Yudicky, on the sidelines because of injuries, tackles Yale at New Haven where the Ellis aren't at all sure that Albie Booth will be fit and ready for the pow crful onslaught from the Hanover hills. Syracuse greets an old rival in Brown and Cornell comes to New York with every prospect of a smashing victory over Columbia. New York University visits Pitts burgh for the annual tussle with Carnegie Tech. Fordham holds the Metropolitan spotlight with the Vio- lets away from town and West Vir- ginia furnishing the opposition.
 Other interesting battles along the line are the engagements of Rutgers and Holy Cross, and Bucknell and Penn State. Navy has a breather in West Virginia Wesleyan.

Unless improvement is shown in his injured right knee by Saturday. there is strong likelihood that Left Half Back Ed Kloiber may not be started against the Bulkeley high school team of Hartford. The game will be played at Willow Brook park in this city.
 kloiber has been suffering from water on the knee for several weeks. The injuries became worse during the past week and it was necessary for him to leave the Bridgeport Central high school game. in the last quarter. Dr. Joseph Potts, the teams physician. has been baking the knee with electric treatments and he reported today that the knee was much better than yesterday.
 In case he does not start, Gerry Flood will undoubtedly be given the call and will take Robbers place as punter and forward pass tosser. Some of the teams followers are Sn favor of giving Kloiber the benefit of a rest this Saturday so that he will be in good condition for the important Triangular League games that will follow on the two suc- ceeding Saturdays

-, One more home game in which the Rams, New Britain's profession al football eleven, may take part, is in the works at the present time al though definite closing of the game will have to await word from the contemplated opposition today. Al Politis, manager of the local eleven, has started negotiations to have the Thomaston Ponies. the only team that has defeated New Britain this season, come here next Sunday aft ernoon.
 ThomaSton, anxious to play q re- turn game here and confident that it can win again over New Britain, has had another game scheduled for next Sunday. The manager of the team is making efforts to cancel this engagement and if he is successful, he will let Manager Politis know to- day.
 In the event that Thomaston comes here Sunday for the game, New Britain fans are out to see on3 of the pest games or the cale" dar. The local team is still stinging from the defeat in it's first start of the season. The play of the Rams has so far improved that every trick in the bag of the team will be opened up against the invaders.
 Thomaston, at the present time, is making a claim for the state title, New Britain, if it can meet the Ponies again this year, stands as the only obstacle in the path of the team.
 Both teams are eager to play and a if the deal is consummated, the con- test will take place at Memorial Field in Willow Brook park Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock.
 The players on the local eleven reached an agreement last Sunday whereby they will go into the game on split basis and take a chance on whatever money may be taken in at the gate. The crowd of fans is sure to be much bigger than it was last Sunday when the New Ha- ven Triangles came here only to be defeated 19 to 0.
 Arrangements are being made for game in New Haven between New Britain and the New Haven Will liams team. New Britain defeated the Elm City crew twice last season.

In addition 10 the regular Hart ford County Y. M. c. A. track meet of next spring, the state finals of the Y. M. C. A. county meets will be held at Memorial field, Willow Brook park on next May o3, ac- cording to statement made yester- day by Lionel M. Depot, track coach of the New Britain Senior high school
 The Hartford County meet has been held in the local park for the last few years, but it is an additional feather in the cap of Coach Depot to be able to bring the state finals here next spring. The Hartford County meet will be held on May 16, with the state meet on the fol- lowing Saturday.
 The state final meet to be held at Memorial field will include the Junior and the Intermediate classes. These are the two classes in which the local Senior high school enters |, team. The Senior state finals will be again held on Wesleyan field in Middletown on June 6.
 The competition in the Y. M. c. A. meets is expected, to be stiffer next year than in the meets of last spring. The fact that several of the high caliber teams. such as the Sufle!d Prep school team, withdrew from the Y. M. C. A. meets last spring lessened the grade of competition and as a result public interest in the meets dropped to a low level.
 Coach Depot also revealed the fact that the track coaches of the New Haven Hillhouse and the Hartford Public high school are working with him to resume Triangular League track activities either in the next track season or in 1882 There was no Triangular meet last spring be- cause of a disagreement at the previous years meet as to who the actual winner was. Coach Depot had no part in this argument, so he has been able to act as a go between for New Haven and Hartford. He has been aided by the fact that there is q new track coach at New Haven Hillhouse high.
 Coach Depot explained that the three coaches will have to draw up d set of rules for Triangular track competition and these regulations will be submitted to the three high school principals who will either pass upon them or reject them. Coach Depot has been conferring with the Hartford and New Haven mentors and they seem 10 be fsv- orable towards resumption of Fri angular meets.

CONFERENCE KILLS
 CHARITY CONTEST
Big Ten Won't Change Site Of Notre Northwestern Tilt

Chicago, Oct. 2S (UP) - The Western Conference has turned down an opportunity to aid charity
 By vetoing Northwesterns request to have it's football game with Notre Dame November 22 transferred from the Northwestern stadium to Sol dier Field, the faculty representa- lives of the Big Ten have deprived three great Chicago charity organi- cations of between S150,000 and $200,000.
 Soldier Field, with it's seating ca pacity of 10000, can accommodate 62,O00 more persons than Dyche stadium at Evanston. The receipts from the additional seats at s3 per ticket were to be donated to the Catholic, Jewish and United Chari- ties to be applied to the relief of needy families.
 Approval of the shift in the site had been given by both Northwest ern and Notre Dame officials, and the South Park board had agreed to donate Soldier Field without any rental charge.
 In announcing the decision Prof. w. J. Moenkhaus. of Indiana uni versity, committee chairman, said:
 "I am not in a position to express tllc considerations that led to the negative vote, but I am sure that there was no lack of appreciation of the merit of the cause to which the proceeds were 10 go."
 There is no secret of the Big Tens s faculty committees reason for veto ing the proposal. Other charity games to be played after the regu- lar season already had been suggest ed, and the faculty committee fear cd it would set a dangerous pre- cedent which would lead to a num- Der of post-season games.
 Knute Rockne, Notre Dame coach, expressed surprise when he learned of the Big Tens action.
 Here was an opportunity for two universities to do something for charity" he said. Chicago has been kind to Notre Dame. We would have welcomed the chance to do something for Chicago. I was sur prised the faculty men vetoed it."
 Another athletic director, who asked that his name be withheld, said the faculty members were jeal- ous of the gate receipts.
 They did not want the people to get the idea that big football games might be staged to help the unem- ployed," he commented. Another reason is that professors love to en- force rules"

BRUEN GIVES UP POST 0F MANAGER
Pilot Of Madison Square Garden
 Goes Back to Florida

New York, Oct 2S P)-Covetous eyes all along caulifiower row are yearning today at the managers post in Madison Square Garden, the drivers seat of boxing that Tex Rickard vacated in death and Frank January Bruen relinquished of his own accord to return to the man. agement of the Hialeah race track in Miami, Fla.
 Bruen resigned yesterday after serving as manager and vice presi dent of the Garden since June, 1929. William F. Carey, head of boXing's wealthiest corporation, announced Bruen's retirement with reluctance and declared that only the pressing duties of Richards successor ln Florida prompted the change.
 Rumors of changes about to take place in the Garden had been trav- cling the rounds for some time, however. Reports that Col John C. Hammond, and Carey himself, were about to resign have been denied of ficially. At the same time it seem- cd that q mild tempest was brewing among the famous "600 million aires" the late Rickard interested in the financing of his sports palace over the fact that profit were de- creasing, boxing attractions at the Garden deteriorating. and big out door fights, once financial windfalls, now showed discouraging losses.
 Rickard, who conceived the idea of the Garden, built it with the help of his millionaires, and directed it to the point where it added wealth to all concerned, managed the concern alone. He gambled with attractions, staged his eXtravaganzas with the lavish hand of the snowman, but was reported at the time of his death in 1929 to be warning with his business partners over business and financial details that interested him little. After Rickard returned from Chicago in 1927 from the $2,- G00.000 promotion of the second Tunney- Dempsey fight with a profit of only s400,O00 he admitted that he had sold most of his stock in the Garden because of differences with the board of directors.
 So it is rumored now that Bruen, failing to gain the sole authority in dealings with fighters and managers Rickard had, decided to devote his entire efforts to the management of the Miami track. And in the mean time, those along Broadway say his successor will be chosen from among four men.
 Leading the list is Damon Run yon, sports writer, who promoted the Schmeling- Pauline fight in 1929 and the Schmeling Sharkey match last summer for Mrs. William Ran dolph Hearst's milk fund. Among others under consideration are Will ton Farnsworth, sports editor asso- ciated with Runyon in these promo tions; Jimmy Johnston, American manager of Phil Scot; and George Blake of Los Angeles, pilot of Fidel LaBarba. former f1yweight cham pion, and we'll known developer Of amateur stars on the Pacific coast.
 So far Carey announced. no ac- ton had been taken toward choos- ing Bruen's successor. The Garden president will handle the job him. self for the time being, as he did when he stepped into the breach after Richards death and staged the first battle of palms between Jack Sharkey and Young Stribling at Miami Beach, Fla.

GAME RESULTS IN BITTER FEELINGS
Yale Claims Pictures Show Army Touchdown Was Illegal

New York, Oct. 2S P-Footbali
 students had the problem when s
 d touchdown not a touchdown be. 1 fore them today as well as the grow | ing speculation that all is not as we'll as it might be in the football
 relations of Yale and Army. Football officials at Yale announc- cd yesterday after viewing motion pictures Of Saturdays Army Yale game that Tom Kilday, Cadet half back. had scored an illegal touch" down in putting Army in position
 to gain a - tie. They claimed that the pictures, viewed in private
 by Head Coach Nal Stevens, Line Coach Adam Walsh. Tad Jones,
 Dean Clarence Wendell and Haroit l r. Woodcock, general manager ot the Yale Athletic Association, show cd that Kilday was knocked over the goal line from behind by Steck~ CT. a. halfbacll mate, after he had been stopped short of the goal in a charge from the Yale one yard hne At the same time, the Yale OIL cials said that they would accept the official decision giving Army the touchdown. It was pointed out. however, that Rule 10, Section one, says that mo player of the team Tn possession of the ball may help the runner except by interfering for him and there shall be no interlock~ e,ln p ncte adds that pushing the runner or lifting runner from the groun1 by a teammate is an infraction ot the rule" The penalty is loss Of l5 yards.
 While Army officially maintained silence, refusing quotations, support CTS of the Cadets expressed wonder ar the existence of motion pictures O! the game and took little pains to hide the fact that there was teelinS on the Army side concerning the sportsmanship of the Eli rooters.
 Yale mentions that the pictures also show the play on which Alple Booth. quarterback acc. was smoth- cred by Cadets and bruised so that he was forced to retire from the game on the first play in which he participated. The Eli version is that the pictures show Booth had been stopped after intercepting long Army pass and that the referee lad signalled the play at an end when Army players, picking up ,1,r Ino on the ground, among that mass, Booth.
 Army spokesmen commented bit terly on the scenes that followed. They insist Booth was downed hard but legally and the Cadet corps, cheering his gallantry. was booed by the Eli section. Later, when an Army man was injured, Yale cheer ed again and this time the Cadets think the Ellis had something else in mind.
 While the game was hard fought and at times bitter, it is felt among the wiser minds that any ill-feeling that might have cropped out will die away with the excitement of the day. Head Linesman A. c. lyle" said last night il Providence, R. l., that there was no question tfat the ball was over the goal.
 q was standing on the line,' he said. "Kilday dived at the mass ot players halted in mid-air just short Of the line and then moved aheai far enough so that the ball went over I was not in a position to tell whether he received any assistance O. whether he went ahead by drive from his own legs

PUNTS AND PASSES

By the Associated Press
 New Haven-It seems that you never can tell what Albie Booth is going to do, on the football field Or off. Despite his injuries in the Army game he reported early for practice and ran the Yale varsity through signals, but the doctors say it is doubtful that he can face Dart :. mouth Saturday.
 New York-It seems they were talking about another fellow when they blamed big Jim Tanguay for fumbling the pass that gave Ford ham chance to beat New York University. Mashall they say at N. Y. U., fumbled an attempt to punt deep in his own territory and Tan quay dove for the ball but missed Marshalls number was "4' and Tanguay's "44' which may explain it.
 adelphia-Coach Lud Wray still is not satisfied with the Penn- sylvania backfield. The latest chang" puts Perina and Masters at the halves, Green at fullback and Gentle al quarter, where they may stay for the battle with Kansas Saturday.
 Hanover N. H. Dartmouth is moaning low over injuries with the Yale game just around the corner, Stan Yudickey, blonde end. is dowE for two weeks with torn knee liga- ment. Robert F. Lee, a field gen. eral who should be good. has q pulled tendon.
 Ithaca, N. Y.-Cornell is on a scrimmage diet for the Columbia game Saturday. The Big Red waves battle each other Tuesday. Wednes- day and Thursday so as to be sure to be ready for Lou Little's disap- pointing eleven.
 New Brunswick, N. J.-Here's one sure sign that mid-season is here and the battling from here on in deadly earnest. Rutgers IS prepar. ing behind locked gates for Holy Cross.
 Cambridge, Mass. - Harvard has decided that a good defense doesn win football games and few new offensive tricks are in the making ol: the banks Of the Charles. Army and Dartmouth could only score q touchdown apiece against the Grim son but Harvard's sum total of points in the pair of engagements vas lone safety two points.
