Big Burden for Crawford.

CRAWFORD improved play figures
to help offset the blow, but he
will be under severe pressure, with
two singles matches as we'll as the
doubles, with McGrath, to handle
within three days.
Bulge is the spearhead OF the drive
which Americans hope will lead to
recapturing the Davis Cup exactly 10
years after it was lost to France. The
California red-head, apparently in top
form, is counted upon for two singles
conquests. He turned the trick last
year but lost a close match in the
doubles with Mako to Crawford and
Quist. The outcome again may hinge
on the doubles. with the American
pair, tutored by George Lott, highly
confident they can turn the tables.

Olympic Control Is Aim.

WHAT the conference rule most
likely means is that the colleges
Of the country are starting a drive to
gain control of future Olympic
games.
For years the colleges have been
complaining Of taxation without sat-
isfactory representation on the Olym-
pic committees, and the conduct Of
our Olympic teams last Summer
likely brought the matter to boiling
point.
The A. A. U. always has dominated
Olympic affairs, but if the other Lead
ing collegiate conferences Of the
country follow the lead of the Big
Ten that day may be passing.
1t is quite certain that our Olympic
committees in 1910 will be operated
much differently than in the past and
the Big Tens action is the first move
toward forcing the net set-up.
Michigan State Wants Berth.
DURING the conference meeting at
Ann Arbor last week an applica.
ton for membership in the confeder-
alton was received from Michigan
State College. Now, the Big Ten is
in no immediate need for new MEM
bers, since the group as it stands has
a nice geographical balance.
However, the application may have
some pertlnence. 1t may mean that
Chicago University eventually NAV
sacrifice its charter membership in
the conference and likely the Michi.
gan State people had that in mind.
The application was the first re-
ceived by the Big Ten since Nebraska
] made a futile bid some years ago.
The last new member accepted by the
conference was Ohio State in 1918,
although Michigan came back into
the group after 10 years OF secession
in 1913 There Is no chance Of Michi-
gan State being given any considera-
ton unless Chicago should sometime
withdraw, but in that event the
Spartans would fit nicely both from
a geographical and scholastic view
point.

$500 RECEIVED
 FOR SETTLEMENT
Fred Vecchi's Disputed Compensation Claim
 Ends Today

Fred vecchI, of l9 Pearl street, this city, today received $500 in settlement of his disputed compen- sation claim against the Chase Brass 6S Copper O., Inc.
 Tuberculosis, which he claims to have contracted while working on the Patent Level Machine in the Chase Rolling NH plant during the years 1o34 and l935, is the disease which is responsible for the dis ability according to Vecchi. He has been disabled since March g. 1886.
 The employer denied all respon- sibility and liability to the claim ant and acquired the services of Dr. Cole B. Gibson of Undercliff sani- torium, Meriden, to make 8 thor ough investigation of the working conditions at the plant where Vecchi was formerly employed. Dr. Gibson also talked with several of the workmen on the premises, and submitted a very complete and com- prehensive report to both claimant and respondent.
 In spite of the denial the corn- pany agrees to pay the $500 in ccm- plete and final settlement of the claim. Since he ceased working at the Chase plant, March g, 1936, the claimant has not been able to work at any kind of employment.

Waterbury Young Democrats will send two delegations to two different state conventions this year as a re- suit of the split in the organization that came definitely last Thursday night after efforts of State Chair man J. Francis Smith of this city to bring about peace in the war ring ranks of both factions had failed. Waterbury's original" Young Democratic club will send its dele gation to the state convention in Hartford on April g at which Att torney Frank Odlum of Hartford and Unionville is expected to be elected president of the Connecticut group. The so-called local trump" Young Democratic club will send a delegation to New Haven on May 8 when the insurgent group in the Young Democratic organization conducts a state convention, the le- gality of which is questioned.
 For over two months State Chair man Smith has been attempting to prevent the open split in the ranks of the, Young Democrats but without avail. The fight goes back to the battle at the state convention in Waterbury 8 year ago this month

when the Young Democrats prac- tically rioted.
 A year ago John M. Robinson of this city was president of the Young Democrats and wanted to be re- elected. His candidacy was opposed by the local original Young Dem- cratic club and favored by the so- called trump" club. Governor Wil- bur L. Cross stepped in. Attorney Odlum at the time was the choice of the regulars" for Robinson'S post. Robinson and Odlum withdrew from the race at the suggestion of the governor and Attorney John T. Cullinan of Bridgeport was elected president. It was victory for the Odlum group, however, as it elected three to the executive board of the Connecticut Young Democratic or- ganization and the two members of the national committee of the Young Democrats. The Odlum group had a five to three lead over the Robinson forces but they did not realize this fact at the time.
 Now the two factions have failed to agree on the damand of the Robinson group that the offices be divided four and four. As a result, State Chairman Smiths efforts to bring about peace have failed and the Young Democrats of Connecticut will hold two separate conventions.
 While Attorney Odlum is prac- tically assured of the oflce of pres- ident of the regulars, the insur- gents have no set program as yet They are considering the names of Matthew Scully of Naugatuck, Att torney Robert M. Bowling of Meri- den and Joseph DePalo, president of the New Haven Young Democrats
 The fight is actually between the New Haven county and the Hartford county Young Democrats. Water bury has two clubs. the regulars will support the Hartford county faction. The insurgents will support the New Haven county group. Ques- ton as the legality of the May 8 convention of the New Haven group is being raised as. 1t is claimed, the constitution of the Young Demo- cratic organizations requires that the state convention shall be held either ill March or April.
