pOPULAR rumor has it that Cliff is
awaiting the arrival of George
Marshall owner of the Redskins, from
the West Coast. This hardly is logical
If Cliff is wanted by big college for
coaching and his qualifications are eX-
cellent, the chances are that he will
grab any attractive offer Mrs. Bat
ties brought up no silly children. De-
spite Marshall's reputation for getting
what he wants-and he undoubtedly
wants Battles signed for 1938-Cliff is
almost certain to take the Columbia
job, when and if offered to him.
Battles. a veteran of six years of
professional football, earned his top
salary last year and that was below
$4,000, to hear unconfirmed reports.
As Columbia backfleld coach he would
collect considerably more than this
sum- In addition, he could hang onto
his Washington off-season job, which
is with soft-drink concern.
Cliffs contract for 1888, which has
yet to be offered by the Redskins.
undoubtedly will be the largest he
ever has received. Battles played too
prominent part in the Redskins
drive to the world championship to
be overlooked when Marshall hands
out the raises. But Battles is likely
to be looking for security and toward
the future He probably will turn

CONTROL
ATP|TT T|GHTENED
Restrictions Like Those of
Ivy League and Big Ten in
Effect March |.
b. the Associated Press.

6J lIle Associated fTeSS.
TITTSBURGH. Feb. 10.-Two
- changes in athletic policy, one
designed to place the Univer-
a sity of Pittsburgh's teams under
the same restrictions" as those of the
Ivy League and Big Ten. go into effect
next March l.
One change shifts control from the
Athletic Council of the university to a
newly organized, all-faculty committee
The other revises the code of eligi-
bility standards at the university so
that they will compare with any in
effect at Harvard, Yale, Princeton,
Cornell or the Big Ten Conference"
said Chancellor John G. Bowman of
Pitt, who made the announcement.
These changes top program of
athletic policy revision that began last
fall with announcement of the "Hagan
plan" which eliminated athletic
scholarships and subsidies.
The new policies, DR.. Bowman said,
were adopted at the suggestion of the
old Board of Athletic Control and were
Endorsed by DR.. John B. Jock" Suth-
erland, head football coach: DR.. Harold
C.. Carlson. basket ball coach, and
Track Coach Carl Olson. Some of the
new rules already are in effect, DR..
Bowman added.
High Glass Grade Necessary.
A THLETIC DIRECTOR JAMES
HAGAN explained that the new
code embodies the best features of
eligibility rules of the so-called Ivy
League schools and those of the Big
Ten. Many of their rules were adopted
verbatim, while some were liberalized
in minor details to conform to condi-
tions at Pitt.
The most important change under
the eligibility code states:
mo student shall be eligible to
membership on any university team
until he has completed satisfactorily
full years work at the university and
has satisfied the requirements for ad-
vancement with his class as deter
mined by the faculty.
A total of approximately 80 credits
is necessary for advancement in most
courses.
Under the old code only .12 credits
in the preceding semester were re-
quired to make student eligible for
athletic competition.
Eight Games Grid Limit.
THE football schedule is limited to
L eight intercollegiate games sea-
son, except on approval of the Ath-
letic Council-and the first game can
not be played before October l.
The new code makes no mention of
post-season games. Hagan explaining
that would be left entirely up to the
members of the teams.
In conformonce with Big Ten rule,
football practice will begin September
TO-
