A. A. u. OPENS ONE OF MOST
QUIET SESSIONS in HISTORY
What Little Fireworks There
Was Developed Sunday in
Committees

New York, Nov. 2l.-tP)-Nearly
$50 delegates from rs district associa-
tions, from Maine to Florida, and
representatives of 16 allied organiza-
lions assembled Monday for the
opening Of the 44th annual conven-
ton of the Amateur Athletic union.
Controversies were at a minimum
and one Of the most peaceful sessions
in A. A. U. history seemed assured.
The convention will close Tuesday
with the election of officers.
Most of what fireworks there were
occurred in the closed meetings Of
80 committees Sunday and out of
these may come fight or two on the
convention floor.
While the record committee was
approving most of the 240 applica-
tons for new marks placed before It,,
stiff battle was waged before Ben
Eastmans sensational 1874 perform
ance for the quarter mile was &C.
commended for convention approval.
Several committee members, notably
Lawson Robertson, Olympic coach,
questioned the accuracy of the tim
ing.
A suggestion that hockey be re-
moved from A. A. U. control and an
independent body be set up to have
jurisdiction over amateurs, neo-
amateurs and semi-professionals was
voted down by the hockey and leg
islative committees on the ground the
A. A. U. could not properly sanction
| any step involving other than anna
teurs.
The boxing committee took steps
to discourage professionalism when it
recommended to ban all special"
bouts and place all tournaments on
| an open" basis.
Chicagos bids for the national
senior and junior outdoor track
! championships and the decathlon
title test were approved.
The record committee rejected two
applications other than those ignored
because superior marks were up for
| consideration. The 20.6 time Ralph
/! Montague of the University of San
Francisco turned in for 200 meters
was rejected and so was George Ler-
mond's 1904 for the 3,00Q-meter

Twice in the second period the
Raiders smashed over the Navy goal
line, but after that stubborn Mid
dy defense halted their fast running
backs and played the powerful Ram

line was threatened.
The Middies surprised those who
had expected Notre Dame to smother
them under an avalanche of touch.

Notre Dame piled up "a first downs
