~ RAD MANDLEY, leader in the
x Campbell Swe. pstakes, is in a
tough spot. So much has been
said and written about this one
man among Al in the coin classic that
attention has been pulled almost en-
tirely away from about a dozen who
have an excellent chance to beat him.
When the boys line up for the second
skirmish tonight at Convention Hall.
Brad hardly can help feeling that all
eyes are upon him, with much expected.
He may tighten up.
A fact net overlooked by Mandley' S
rivals is that he got a fortunate break
in the first set roll.d at the Coliseum.
The draw for drives placed him on his
two pet mapleways. Brad is too darned
eood under any conditions to suit most
Of them, but 1t gives his foemen heart
to know that tonight he at least will
have nothing in his favor Except sheer
ability.
MICKEY WHALEN will loot the
lNl starting whistle at 7:30 O'Clock.
It is requested that the contest
?ntS be on mana 10 or ~ minutes DeIoIS
that time to draw for alleys.
This is the first major tournament
that finds Charley Watson Of Silver
Spring up with the leaders and ne is
to be feared. Watson is the type of
bowler who. when he gets hot" reaches
a white pitch. He is % sticks behind
Mandley.
No less dangerous is Aston Clarke, in
third place, with 627 Clarke is a new
ccmsr to the sweepstakes. He Is in his
first year as big timer.
Clarke, to quote a veteran observer
who has watched him in independent
matches at the Coliseum, has just
found himself. He had the natural
ability but not the confidence" says
this critic. I'm the last month Astor
has been tough among the tough"
Nine besides Mandley shot scores OF
600 or better in the opener and none
was fluke At least two of the leaders
have proved themselves capable of
beating 700, this figure having been
surpassed by Paul Harrison and Eddie
Espey under championship conditions.
THERE is at least one drive at Con-
i vention Hall every plank of which
is familiar to Mandley. On this
maplsway Brad won the John Blick
100-gam Sweepstakes.

URGES STRICT CODE
FOR ALL COLLEGES
Michigan Athletic Leader Would
Make Outlaws" of Those
Not Toeing Mark.
BY the Associated Press.

ANN ARBOR. Mich, January 81
A sharp line Of demarcation which
would make outlaws" Of colleges and
universities not subscribing to certain
general principles Of athletic proprie-
ty" Is advocated by Prof. Ralph w
Aigler ic his report as chairman Of the
board in control of athletics at Univer-
sity of Michigan.
The principles set forth are In effect
the cardinal rules of the Western Con-
ference, in which Prof. Aigler Is the
Michigan representative. The line Of
demarcation suggested would circum-
scribe the membership of the National
Collegiate Athletic Association, which
Prof. Angler regards as an organization
that ought to take the lead in such a
move as this
The veteran faculty athletic oficial
proposed five rules to which he believes
colleges should be required to subscribe
to attain membership in the national
organization. They are:
!. Requirement Of q full years
residence and earned credit. with no
entrance deficiencies, for eligibility.
2. No eligibility after three years
Of intercollegiate competition.
3. Competition limited to under
graduates.
4. No intercollegiate foot ball aft
CT Jllc OCIOIC 1hdlhoSNhlk
and no more than five college days
absence from the home campus dur
ing the season.
5. Effective faculty control of ath-
letic activities.
Limitation of membership in the ma
tional organization to colleges and uni
versities accepting these rules was adj
vocated on the ground that this
method OF separating the sheep from
the goats" the desirables from the I'M
desirables, has been found productive
Of much good in other fields. The
placard outlaw" is one no institution
likes or can afford to wear.
Ninety per cent of the present mem
bership of the association, Prof. Angler
estimates, would be eligible under the
proposed rules.
In another section of his report the
Michigan chairman takes digs at the
critics of intercollegiate sports, es-
pecially foot ball.
Foot ball, he says, would indeed be
overemphasized If its Importance with
in the university with reference to
other activities we're indicated by the
space given to the sport in newspapers
as compared to academic interests.
But such, he declared. Is not the case.
students and faculty" he said, take
their foot ball with q sanity that sur
prises the outsider"

BERG SCORES THIRD
WIN OVER PERL|CK
Garden Crowd Gets Kick Out
of Ring Bout for First
Time in Months.
BY HERBERT w. BARKER,


N YEW YORK. January 31.-Her-
man Perlick, one-half Of a twin
pugilistic Arm from Kalamazoo,
Mich, soon should be convinced
that he cannot whip Jack kid Berg,
the White Chapel whirlwind of the
lightweights.
Herman, whose twin brother Henry
also is a lightweight Of some preten-
sions, stepped into the ring with Berg
for the third time last night, and for
the third time Berg pounded out a
decision victory.
For the first time in months the faith
full at Madison Square Garden had a
chance to grow really excited about a
boxing match. And the $500 specta-
tors. a better than average gathering
in these lean days at the Garden, Missed,
hooted, laughed, booed and finally
cheered to their hearts content and
genuinely enjoyed themselves.
Perlick was beaten-soundly beaten
by the time the tenth round rolled
about. but IN the early stages Of the
bout he gave Berg plenty of anxious mo-
ments.
Berg Slow Starter.
Prohting by his experiences in two
previous meetings with the British
mauler, Perllck won the first two rounds
handily. AS Berg came charging In,
fists flying, Perlick brought him up
short with a speedy left to the head
and sharp right cross.
The Briton began to warm up to his
task in the third round, which was
even. and thereafter Perlick lost six
straight rounds. Berg swept all over
the Kalamazoo trial horse, belabored
him with both fists and forced him to
hold on desperately in an attempt to
weather the storm of leather that came
his way. The crowd Kissed and hooted
Indignantly at Perlick's holding tactics,
but its jeers quickly turned to cheers
as the fight became rougher and
rougher.
Perl.ck rallied in the tenth round
and slugged it out with the British
leather-swinger until the f1nal bell
ended the fray. Perlick won the first
two rounds and gainsd an even break
in the third and tenth. but all the
others went to Berg, who not only
holds the junior welterweight cham
pionship. but also is the outstanding
contender for Tony Canzoneri's light
weight championship.
There were no knockdowns. but Per-
lick started bleeding about the nose in
the fifth round and his left eve wa
split in the ninth. Berg weighed 1873 ?
pounds; Perlick, 1879.

for thet date. G. u now is trying to
list Army for a grid game at West

Assistant Manager Loichot is ar
ranging a fcot ball schedule for
the Georgetown scrubs with smaller

Fear has been expressed by some
that the fact that Walter johnson
is not doing any pitching this Win
ter may affect his work the APP
preaching season, but it is believed
by most persons that the rest will
help him and that he will show at
his best. Heretofore the smoke ball
king has pitched semi-pro ball every
Winter on the West Coast.
Tom Hughes, tall hurler, who was
the best pitcher in the American As
ISOLATION last wear. arrived here last
night from Chicago and will stay
here until time to leave with seven
other members of the Washington
team for Hot Springs, Ark. Tom,
who formerly was with the Nationals,
saws his arm is better than in years.
Walsh, candidate for the George
town relay team, has to forego run

in foot ball. Coach Foley had hopes
of developing him into good man.

A TRIANGULAR track and field
"A meet at College Park on May 2,
with Virginia and Maryland as the
other contending teams is feature Of
the Navy track and field schedule, just
announced.
The event is TO be one Of the fea-
lures of the annual University OF Mary
land field day. which involves also a
big interScholastic track and field meet
In which virtually all the high and prep
schools in this section take part.
II is unlikely that Maryland will
stand much chance Of matching up
very favorably with either Virginia or
Navy, and the event is pretty sure TO
develop into more or less Of dual be-
tween those two schools.
Johns Hopkins University has ap-
pointed a committee to study the ad-
visibility Of dropping foot ball as an
intercollegiate sport 1t may be that the
committee will make a recommendation
that the university go in for the sport
on a much bigger scale than it has ever
attempted Such an outcome would
not be at all surprising.
Gabe Murphy, graduate manager Of
athletics at Georgetown is to attend the
meeting of representatives of several
Eastern schools today in Philadelphia
TO discuss the possibility and desira-
bility of organizing another intercol-
legiate basket ball league. The schools
invited to attend the conference are
Georgetown, Pittsburgh New York u,
Syracuse, Colgate, Penn State, WeSt
Virginia and Carnegie Tech. The in
vitations we're extended by Temple
