A. A. j. NOW LOOKS
TO TITLE PROGRAM
Other Business Completed
With Only One FIare.up,
That Over RediStriCting.

BY the Associated Press.
KANSAS CITY, November 1.-THE
Amateur Athletic Union filed away its
major problems of the forty-third an
nual convention here today and turned
to a program listing official award CT
tournament dates and cities and selec-
ton of officers and trustees.
The only matter to break the other-
wise harmonious atmosphere OF the
conference yesterday arose over a pro-
posed amendment to the bylaws to
limit the functions Of the Redlstrlctlng
Committee.
Avery Brundage, Chicago, the presi-
dent. however. pointed out that under
the constitution rediStricting must be
done by agreement of the constitution
with so DAYS notice. He then referred
the matter to committee.
Virtual completion of recommended
tions to the United States Olympic
Executive Committee at New YORK NO
vember 30 was reported by the Track
and Field and Swimming Committee;
Of the American Olympic Association,
also in session here.
The Track and Field Committee
recommended that trials for positions
on the American decathlon team in the
| 1882 Olympic games at Los Angeles be
held at Chicago June "a and %, with
the site to be selected later.
This body also favored adoption of
metric measurements to conform with
Olympic distances and in another rec
ommendation suggested that the 1892
track and field championships of the
/. C. A. A. A. A. and the National Col
legiate A hletic Association adopt the
plan. These championships will qualify
| competitors FOR the final Olympic try
outs at Stanford University.

TINE Green Wave of Tulane is quite
a striking sector Of foot ball
surf. In the way of all-around
quality this Tulane team can
hold its own with any outfit on the
map, for it has all the needed ingre-
dents for high ranking-speed, driving
power, smartness and experience.
1t isn't often that one will see as fine
a backfield working behind as powerful
a line. Zimmerman, Payne, Dawson,
Felts, Glover and others are all backs
of quality and no team can show a bet
ter pair of ends than Dalrymple and
Haynes.
If there was weakness in the Green
Wave cast it wasn't brought forth in
the Georgia test, and this goes both
ways, Extensively and defensively. The
passing attack was finely executed and
exceptionally well conceived. The run
ming attack was featured by an end
sweep back of fast, compact interior
ence such as one seldom sees today.
It was reminder of Notre Danes
end-run drives with Carideo, Brill and
Savoldi blocking for Schwartz or O'Con-
nor. The Tulane line is a fast, hard
charging aggregation and they all seem
to be built for the work-rugged, power
full types that crashed through the
Georgia line repeatedly to break up
running plays. 1t is an aggressive, fast
charging line that can hold its own with
any set of forwards in the country.
IT may be impossible this season TO
i pick out any one team and call It
the best. NotIe Dame, Tulane, Ten.

Penn Star Chips AZ Seconds Off Old
Mark in Cross-Country Race.
Harvard Team Best.

NEW YORK, November II. Dan
Dean of Pennsylvania has dethroned
Clark Chamberlain, Michigan State ace,
as intercollegiate A. A. A. A. cross
country champion, but only by breaking
the course record.
Dean shaved AZ seconds off the old
mark for the Smile course in Van
Cortlandt Park yesterday to beat
Chamberlain by 25 yards, with George
Baker of New York University third,
Bill McKniff Of Penn fourth and Joe
McCluskey CT Fordham fifth.
Dean was timed in l29:2325, as COM
pared with the record of 30:06 set
jointly by Francis Lindsey and Harry
Richardson of Maine two years ago.
Chamberlain, Barker, McKniff and
McCluskey all bettered the old rec
ord and the sixth-place winner j. j.
Ryan of Manhattan, tied it. Chamber
lain was caught in 1929; Barker, 29:30;
McKnif in 1851 and McCluskey,
29:52.
Harvard carried off teams honors
with the excellent low total of A points
placing five men in the first 49, Penn
sylvania was second with 95: Penn
State, defending champion, third with
100, and New York University, fourth
with 1919.
Frank Crowley led Manhattan Col
lege to victory in the freshman 3-n1ile
run, winning the event in the new rec
ord time of 14:13. The old record of
14:47 was set by McCluskey in 1929.
Manhattan won the team title with 81
points.

nessee, Harvard and Northwestern,
among the leaders, all have their
chance to finish the season without a
bump. Among these Tulane's place
must be high, and the same Is true of
Tennessee, which gives the South two
of the best that the Nation can show
for 1881.
You won't see many better all
around backs than Don Zimmerman.
He is a fast, alert, hard-running ball
carrier who can also pass with accu-
racy. Yet he doesn't outclaSs Payne
and other mates, who are among the
best blockerS of the year. The end
play of Dalrymple and Haynes stands
out. It was almost impossible to take
either out of the play, while both are
exceptional pass receivers. Dalrymple
is slashing, inspired type of player
and the same is true of Zimmerman
The Georgia team was not at its peak,
but even at it's peak it lacked the all
around strength of line and backfield
play which Tulane can send to -
wars. Both Catfish Smith and Austin
Downes, two of Georgia's stars, were
below their best, but few can keep
at top form all year through a hard
schedule.
The one soft spot in Tulane's play
was fumbling. The intense heat and
the bitterness of the contest seemed
to have hit the nerves of both teams,
as the game was marred by an almost
endless series of penalties from start
to finish.

~ UTLER UNIVERSITY, George
x Washingtons opponent Friday
u night at Griffith Stadium, is
not so we'll known here, but in
its relationships in the Middle West
always has enjoyed high rating In
fact. at times it has been SO good that
many of its sister institutions have
shown more of an inclination to stay
clear of its teams than to meet them.
Last week Butler lost to Marquette, 81
to O. but that was hardly anything
more than was to be expected, as Mar
ouette usually has much more pow
erful eleven than the average school.
Located at Indianapolis, Butler is a
school of about 1000 students. Its ath-
letic teams, while not on a par with
Western Conference institutions, still
are strong; might be called exception
ally strong compared to schools in this
section. Probably fair comparison OF
the strength of Butler teams could be
given by saying that they are about on
a par with Virginia, Washington and
Lee and Virginia Military Institute In
basket ball Butler teams in all prob
ability as general thlng would meas
ure up higher than schools in this Sec
ton.
Just what Butler will do against
George Washington is, of course,
matter of conjecture, as is any prob
able foot ball result, for that matter.
George Washington scouts brought
back the report that Butler is strong
and that it will come here prepared
to give the Colonials the battle of their
young lives.

C. U. SEES REAL FOE
IN PROVIDENCE TEAM
Report of Scouts Backs Up View
Held by Coach Bergman That
Cards Have Big Task.

Dutch Bergman, Catholic University
coach. said Sunday that he expected
Providence College to be one of the
toughest teams his men have met this
year, but since talking with the men
who secuted the Providence team last
week he just about knows that to be
true.
There are no expectations in the light
in which Bergman now regards the con-
test. It is his opinion that Catholic
University, despite its good record, will
be lucky to win.
Providence College has in its back
field two of the fastest men in college
foot ball. They are Brady and Bar
barito. Both have scholastic Spring
records behind them and the latter, it is
reported. is not only fast, but very
elusive.
Catholic U. buckled down yesterday
to what it expects to be one of the
hardest weeks it has had this year.
The Brooklanders. realizining that their
fine record is endangered by the Provi-
dence team, intend to give everything
they have to get in shape to put up a
winning fight.

that George Washington would have to

says Pixlee, "juSt as it has good teams

sured that it will have on the field
Friday night against us an eleven that
no opponent could take lightly and
get away with it. I regard the game
as about an even-up proposition, if we
are at our best. If anything happens
that We do not play up to our highest
standard, then we may take beating"
George Washington expects to be in
better physical shape than for any of its
previous contests. The two weeks rest
it has had seems to have given the
players new life and certainly has given
bruises and sprains a chance TO heal

dierS of Washington and Lee seem
destined to gather alike the fruits
and ashes that we're the lot of
the men of grim old George and
the romantic Robert E.
In other words, If Washington and
Lee manage to pin back the ears Of
Maryland next Saturday in the home
coming game at College Park, it will
have peaked with glory a career which
has touched the bottom of things.
THE Generals defeated Princeton last

Tiger had the game endured until next
week.
This was the fourth surprise in q
row sprung by the lads from Lexington,
who started the streak of upsets with
an 1870 victory over Virginia a month
ago. 1t was not less surprising when
they played scoreless tie with william
and Mary. and 1t was sure enough
dope-dumper when they came back to
defeat v. p. l., 60.
