Dempsey Can't Be
Garden Referee
N. 7. Commission SurIy at
Business Session.

By United Press
NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-The New
York State Athletic Commission
would welcome a legislative inves-
tigatiOn. Furthermore, Jack Demp-
sey can't referee at Madison Square
Garden Friday night. Moreover,
Madison Square Garden, and not
the commission, is killing boxing.
In one Of its Stornaiest sessions,
the rulers of boxing took this stand
yesterday, deciding they were all
right.
The commission will not permit
Dempsey to referee the Art Lasky-
James j. Braddock show Friday
night because this would smack Of
dictation by the Garden and would
be unfair to the regular licensed
referees, who arc rotated.
The commission charged that
gamblers were overrunning the
Garden, and suggested that if the
Garden wished to know what was
wrong with boxing it need only find
the answer why Barney Ross, the
lightweight champion, and other
outstanding fighters refuse to fight
under Garden promotion.

Annual Butler
Relays Receive
Wide Support
Plans for Track Event Are
Formulated at Local
Meeting.
BY DICK MILLER

Plans tor Butler University's
third annual indoor relays, to be
hello in The feldhouse Saturday,
Ma en- %, were formulated yester-
=, at a luncheon attended by uni
verSity athletic officials, Relays Of
icials and newspapermen. Hermon
Phillips, Bulldog track coach and
founder of the Relays, presided.
Popularity OF the Relays games
and proof that they are attracting
interest all over the country is evil
denced in the fact that already Mr..
Phillips mas received entry lists
from % schools while last year at
this time just two had Signifed
their intentention of coming here.
Belief that a complete new set Of
records for the Butler Relays, as
well as possibly some new world
records, might be established was
expressed by Coach Phillips. He
said that a complete new track,
consisting of a harder soil that
packs better and still permits sound
footing for the spike-shoed speed
sters, has been built in the field
house.
Scoring System Changed
To make the indoor track festival
appeal to every group of sport fol-
lowers, Butler has added a new 40
cent admission for unreServed seats.
All the balcony seats will be re-
served at SI.10, tax included, and
box seats on the ground floor sur
rounding the track at $1.65.
All other new changes in the pro-
gram this year will be for the pur-
pose of making the Relays event of
more interest to the spectators as
we'll as enjoyable. Afternoon elm
nations will be held in the shot put,
high and broad jumps and pole
vault, with only the six best quail
flying for one finals at night.
A changed scoring system to give
the teams that win Relay events
better score than winners of indi-
vidual events mas been adopted.
In an effort to stimulate interest
in the meet locally, committee has
been formed to make direct appeal
to alumni of schools who have
strong track and field teams 30 get
their alma matters to enter the
local event.
Committee Is Named
The committee will be Cecil
WeatherS, of Indiana University;
Superior Court Judge Herbert
Wilson, formerly of Michigan, and
Verle Campbell, Of Purdue. They
will contact alumni of Notre Dame,
De Paw, Chicago, Marquette, IL
linoiS and other schools and there
promises 20 be some spinted root
ing sections at the games this year.
Personal effort to interest the
best runner and field event per-
formers in the country will be made
this week When Coach phillips goes
to New York TO take n the Mill
rose games. Efforts also will be
made to interest the winners of
events in the New York A. G. games,
Feb. 16; the knights of Columbus
games in Brooklyn and the Armour
Tech Relays in Chicago, March 10,
the week before the local event.

And Lou Plummer, local public mat
enemy No. l. had just left the ring.
Edwards, the man with the big
chest, specializes in chiropractic
holds, and he gave Raines a first
class treatment last night. After
Roughouse Richard had won the
first fall with a series of flips after
nine minutes of tussling, Edwards
clamped on a deadlock and started
twisting away to take the second

pin went only six minutes when Ed

Campbell Arrives
With His Bluebird
Refuses to Predict What
Speed He'll Attain.

By United Press
NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-More con-
sentative in predictions than in
driving his Bluebird, Sir Malcolm
Campbell is sure of only one thing:
He has a good automobile.
Upon his arrival from England,
the British driver who made 272
miles an hour two years ago at Day.
iona Beach, Fla, refused to make
a prediction as to how fast he
probably would travel next month.
Faster than before perhaps" he
said.
However, he expressed himself as
certain he could make 300 miles an
hour in his overhauled, new stream
lined Bluebird if he had sufficient
room in which to start and stop. He
feels the 11-nile stretch at Day.
tona Beach is too short.
Lady Campbell and their daugh-
ter Jean will watch him drive for
a new record. The party will leave
late today for Florida.
