College Sports Crowds

Behavior of spectators at col
legiate athletic contes ests has
been sternly censured by Dean
R. L. Sackett, of the school of
engineering of Penns ylvania
State College.
This behavior, Dean Sackett
believes, is due to the CONNER
cialization of college athletics
which was condemned by the
recent report of the Carnegie
Foundation.
The growing tendency toward
wider programs of intramural
sports, which is resulting from
the Carnegie report, Dean
Sackett feels, will gradually
wipe out the present bleacher
ethics with the larger participa-
tion on the part of student
bodies in sports.
The Carnegie Foundation, &C
cording to Dean Sackett, did
more to focus attention on the
place of athletics in our col
legeS and universities than any
other recent event.
The result of the report is a
more careful evaluation of ath-
letics and the resurrection of it's
permanent values, largely
through the development of in
tramural sports programs in
most collegiate institutions.

PLACE COACHES
On FACULTY

SYRACUSE, N. Y. March 30.
Athletic coaches at Syracuse
University are to be given faculty
membership rating as full time
teachers or professors, as soon
as arrangements can be effected.
Charles w. Flint, chancellor,
announced the change last night
at the annual block IS" dinner,
attended by 1000 persons. He
said:
"AS the present contracts of
coaches expire, they will go
upon this new basis of appoint
ment, with a relation to the
university so far as tenure of
office is concerned, the same as
the chancellor, vice-chancellOr,
deans, directors and professors"
Jimmy Crowley, Michigan State
football coach, was the principal
guest speaker.

incidentally, as Jacobs tap
cred off training for this very
important match with Portney,
he was extremely confident he
will last better than he did in
his one previous effort against
Jack.
"The last time we fought. 1
am sure l was leading for five
rounds against Portney," said
Stumpy today, "but then he
opened up my eye and i was
half blinded for the rest of
the battle"
The Vlrginian declares the
brief lay off he has taken has
done him a world of good and
that if he doesn't take the deci
sion tonight from Portney he
will have no alibi to offer
Portney. incidentally, is assured
of participating in the Lansing
tournament of the N.B.A., and
should Stumpy also make the
grade by winning tonight. it
isn't unlikely the two might be
pared out in Michigan. If they
are, scores of Washingtonians
who have seen them both per-
form, would be interested in
the outcome.

Londos VS.. shikat

According to information
coming this way, the fans who
see Jim Londos perform at the
Washington Auditorium Thurs
day night against George Man
ich. will get a peek at the
champion as he is expected to
defend his mat title four nights
afterwards against the man
from whom he won it.
Our informant declares Lon
dos and Dickt Shikat are sched-
uled to go at Madison Square
Garden, New York, next Mon
day night. This is the match
Clark Griffith was anxious to
have Joe Turner stage at his
ball park last summer, but at
that time it was impossible to
get Londos and Shikat in a
ring together.
Shikat has dogged Londos'
trail continually, putting up
challenges with most of the
athletic commissions. A good
line on Shikat's ances to
spill Londos may be gained on
Manich's appearance here
against the champion Thursday,
coupled with Manich's work
against Shikat at the New York
Coliseum tonight.

BARTUSH DROPS
WESTENBERG

The Billy Bartush-Marvin Wes-
tenberg wrestling match at Boiling
Field last night was one of the
best waged here in recent years.
Bartush was the winner by a re-
verse back-drop after 48 minutes
Of spirited action before $50 fans.
The balance of the card gave
the fans much excitement. Angus
Benkert, the Belgian who was to
mix with Marin Plestina, one OF
the really great wrestlers, in the
feature match, failed to appear.
Plestina then agreed to take on
Lee Wycoff and DR.. Len Hall and
throw each in 10 minutes. Each
had previously engaged in a hard
match but managed to last with
PleStina.
The fireworks were ignited in
the bouts involving Wycoff and
Rudy LaDitzi and Dutch Green
and Sailor Siejack. Wycoff was
declared victor over LaDitzi when
the latter was rendered uncon-
SciouS after his head struck the
concrete floor following a fall
from the ring. Upon coming to,
LaDitzi grabbed Referee Jones, An
nouncer Jimmy Lake and Wycoff,
but was quieted.
In one mix-up, Wycoff and
Laditzi rolled outside the ring,
sending ringside spectators to
cover, but they continued on the
floor. Green and Siejack went
20 minutes to a draw and at
the end kept on. It was two or
three minutes before they were
halted. DR.. Hall tossed Mike
Miller with a body slam in %
minutes in the other bout.

LONG SHOTS
STEP DOWN
IN FRONT
BY FRANK G. MENKE
Bowie "debuts" Friday.

Bowie "debuts" Friday.
It is the handbook makers idea
of heaven.
Bowie is that picturesque gid
dyap merry-go-round in Maryland,
between Baltimore and Washing
ton, which opens the Eastern
Northern racing season each year
in April and closes it in November
1t is there the somewhat jaded
winter campaignerS meet up with
the horses that had a vacation
and guessing who'll be who at the
pay-off line is more difficult than
juggling three cannon balls while
standing on a pair of toy bal
looms.
Break For BOOkies
AS a consequence, the boys who
try it in the handbook spots meet
with little success, unplayed long
shots scamper home with monot-
onous regularity and the "bookie"
makes enough in the Springtlme
to carry him all through the
summer.
When November rolls around,
and it's near closing time at
Bowie, the horsemen, needing
shipping money, turn loose all
of their sleepers and again the
lads who play form" are knocked
askew and sideways, and, while
they are in the position, the
"bookies" get enough to provide
them with private yachts for win
ter cruises.
Bowie started out as an outlaw
trac. 1t was not recognized by
the Maryland Racing Commission
at the time of its creation. It
then was little more than spot
that made it eligible for the
"leaky roof" circuit.
Popular Track Now
Few, except its founders, ever
felt that it would survive. Access
to it was difficult. One had the
choice of an interurban line, with
antiquated coaches, or an auto
road that was dismal swamp
after brief showers. Furthermore,
few owners of crack horses sent
them to Bowie because the track
was bad and the purse offerings
rather small.
1t was, for quite a spell, a spot
for gypsy" horSemen.
Now all is changed. 1t is Of
fically recognized and. with thou
sands of horse folks, it is the
favorite track.
Bowie has one of the finest
clubhouse structures in America;
it's enormous grandStand is work
of art. The track surface has
been vastly improved. America
may have gaudier horse tracks
than Bowie, but none where the
comfort of patrons and the vel
fare of horses is given more con
sideration.
Some of the best horses that
this country has produced in the
past eight or ten years have run
over the Bowie track-and for
purses that compare in generosity
with the best in the land. The
swagger set, which once tilted it's
nose at the very mention of
Bowie, now can be found at both
spring and autumn meetings and
ever high in its praise of the
track.
