sity of Virginia's secession from the
Southern Conference will remain
permanent, it was indicated today.
Inquiry at Charlottesville disclosed
that no sentiment has developed
among either the student body,
alumni or university officials for a
return to the athletic body which
Virginia helped found at Atlanta
back in 1921.
Capt. Norton Pritchett, director of
athletics, said there were no de-

pressed by the Board of Visitors
when Virginia resignation exploded
like a bombshell at the start of the
jittery conference meeting here two
years ago.

Savo|di 10 Drop-Ki(k
Little Wolf on Mat
Thursday Night

Dynamite Joe Savoldi, who is
among the host Of rasslers claiming
to be the author of the famed drop
kick and who lends authenticity
to his claim with the reminder that
he once played football for Notre
Dame, will demonstrate some of his
gridiron tactics before the fans at
Turner's Arena Thursday night.
Dynamite Joe has been signed for
the headline bout with Chief Little
Wolf in the opposing corner. This
is JoeS second visit to Washington
since returning from a European
transforming tour and by coinci-
dence his last opponent also was an
Indian. The powerful Italian was
here in April to dispose of Chief
Thunderbird.
Little Wolf is a big, powerful In
dian, almost as broad as he is long.
His speciality is the death lock with
which he has been spreading terror
up and down the coast. He was
scheduled here for a match with
George Zaharias two weeks ago, but
storm delayed him en- route from
Chicago and he arrived too late to
60 on So his match Thursday is

Washington's incurable ring colony
will converge on Turner's Arena to-
night to glimpse the punching Prov
ess of Walter Halliwell, camouflaged
as Wally Hally, imported from the
Pacific Coast to rearrange the fea-
lures of mild-mannered Norment
Quarles, North Carolina lightweight,
in the feature 10-round boult.
Hally, who patterned his style
after an egg beaten, is a reckless guy
who holds little respect for his foes,
wading in close to locate his target
and remaining there to flip a few
fists. Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn
rates MIN the most dangerous thing
to hit town since the flood.
Quarles Popular Here.
Quarles, however, is no green pea
in that department. He has been
around long enough to command
considerable respect and local ring
worms have taken a liking to his
style. Thus far the following hasn't
taxed the capacity of the arena, but
Quarles is adding a few customers
with each appearance and the pro-
motors hope he'll stick around long
enough to fight before a stable
gathering.
Norment is one of the few college
boxers who have relished the taste of
professional biting, but some say he
was fair fighter before he decided
to bury his nose in books at the Uni
versity of North Carolina and cap
ture a few Southern Conference
titles.
Four Preliminary Bouts.
A trio of six-rounders and a four
rounder comprise the preliminary
card. In the SKIES Tommy Ricco will
aim at Pancho Huerta, Eddie Saug-
sted will exchange wallops with
Johnny Sullivan and Don Rooms will
meet Gene Johnson. The four
rounder, involving Ray Lewis and
Red Osborne, will get under way at
$50 o'clock.

No Big Changes Made
In Golf Implements
For Next Season
Better-Centered Iron
Head, Cork Rubber
Grip Introduced.
BY WALTER McCALLUM.

There won't be anything radically
new in golf clubs next year. New
designs of golf utensils usually come
out about the same time as the auto
mobile lines, and just now the
manufacturers representatives are
dropping in on the professionals
around Washington talking up their
new wares for next year. But the
thing that impresses you most is
that there isn't anything radically
new.
One manufacturer has made de-
cided change in the line of iron clubs
by cutting the hosel almost in face
and carrying the shaft further into
the neck of the club.
Iron Head Chunkier.
1t makes for a chunkier, better
centered iron head. Many of the
new lines carry aids to proper grip,
and one Of them uses a new combi-
nation rubber and cork grip which
is easy on the hands and helps in
wet weather to prevent the club
from slipping. The old calfskin
grip has been slippery grip in wet
weather and some of the bows have
been using surgical tape applied
over the grip to prevent slipping.
Wooden club faces are getting a
little deeper, though none of them
are as deep as the faces of the
tremendous mallets used by big slug
gers like John Montague or George
Iaharias, the rassler. Zaharias was
around town few days ago sport
ing a set of wooden clubs with Q
inch faces, weighing more than a
pound. Only man with his strength
could WELD club of that weight.
He can smack EN- too.
Specifications Are Strict.
Golf is the one game in which
design doesn't change very much in
| implements. The United States Golf
Association specifies that golf club
must have toe and a heel; that
deep ridges on iron-club faces are
barred, and that certain types of
artificial aids also are banned. That's
the reason why such things as the
putter with roller on the bottom
and other curious instruments which
annually make their appearance are
not used. Golf clubs are kept to a
recognized standard form of con-
struction by the parent body. and
despite your bright ideas Of some
thing mechanical which may i'm
prove your game, you won't be able
to get it over.

10-Pound Concession
To Fiery Opponent
May Ruin Henry
Champion, Though, Not
Worried by RivoIs'
Famed BoIo Punch
nv DREW MIDDLETON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-Sport's old
est cliche. the one about the good
little man not being able to lick the
good big man, has been busted off to
front for the argument between
Henry Armstrong, the welterweight
champion, and Ceferino Garcia, the
scared Filipino from Los Angeles,
who bids for Henry's title tomorrow
night in the Garden ring.
1t is most apt. Garcia is a good
big man for a welterweight. He
can fight middleweights without
harm-he banged Glen Lee recent
ly-and he will 60 into the ring for
the 15-round bout around lat
pounds.
Armstrong, who is as good little
man as you can find, has fought
welterweights, but no Garcias. He
look the title from Barney Ross
last spring, but Ross never was a
full-blown welterweight. He was a
lghtweight who fought best around
1873.
Forcing a Difficult Task.
Henry is even smaller. He
weighed less than .135 for the Ross
fight and the battle in which he
took the lightweight title from Lou
Ambers. Just year ago he was
known as very good featherweight
Now he is taking on big, tough
fellow, who will outweigh him by
10 or IL pounds and who can hit and
be hit by middleweights.
And Ceferino can pop 'em. He
has crazy right hand his manager
calls the bolo punch that will drop
man nine times out of ten. He
is strong, very willing and utterly
without imagination. The only
thing against him is he never has
beaten frst-class fighter.
The good big man says he will
stand off and smack Henry dizzy
with his bolo punch. His manager,
George Parnassus says he will do it
in seven rounds or less. And what
has the good little man from st.
Louis to say to that?
Armstrong Is Confident.

ammer, but to date his ring work

listen:
Well. he can throw that punch
n he wants. He can hit guy with
if the fellow stands off and let's
.mself be hit. I don't stand off and
I don't stand still. I'm hard to hit,
cause I'm moving. All this talk
3out him doing the hitting-Ill
t in a couple myself"
A couple of hundred would be
ORE like it. Henry is no knock
n-dead hitter, but he hits with the
pidity of a Lewis gun. After the
clny absorbs a few hundred Arm
ong punches his knees begin to
;oble and his arms grow weak
d tired. Then Henry walks in
knocks him down.
Take Your Choice At 6-5.
When the fight was made Garcia
S heavy favorite over the little
IN who failed to knock out Am
