PITTSBURGH, Nov. 23.-The
football fuss at the University of
Pittsburgh was a wide-open, free
for-all contest today with the uni
versity's chancellor. the Letter Club,
the alumni and the citys Chamber
of Commerce carrying the ball.
The revolt of % freshman football
players a week ago set off anew the
campus controversy that first boiled
over two years ago after the Rose
Bowl game and has been simmering
of and on since then.
The freshmen admitted they
signed notes for $50 tuition for a
semester, but contended they un-
derstood this was mere formality.
Then. they charged, they were being
"dunned" for the money.
Brings Fuss Into Open.
Chancellor John G. Bowman
brought the controversy sQuarely
into the open yesterday when, in
his annual address to the students,
he pledged continuance of the Bow
man "code," which placed athletics
on q strictly amateur basis" year
ago. He told unofficial football
managers" to keep out of the uni
versity's athletic affairs.
This was only an hour after the
had rejected a proposal by Pitts
varsity Letter Club, comprising 900
former athletes, for an impartial"
investigation of athletic affairs, the
club announced.
Then the Alumni Council, govern
ing body Of the general alumni as
sociation, announced it would ap-
point an impartial" committee to
investigate "the entire athletic prob
lem. including the freshmen tuition
case"
City Requests a Winner.
Finally, the Pittsburgh Chamber
Of Commerce, Bowman disclosed,
sent a committee headed by Presi-
dent Frank L. Duggan to him Mon
day to urge that Pitt continue to
have winning football teams "for
the good of Pittsburgh"
To the freshman players, Bowman
said:
"The university never has and
never will stoop to sharp practice.
In the event there is a reasonable
doubt. I will accept your word and
play fair"
Advising the players not to do
anything these unofncial managers
ask you to do" Bowman said that
by playing fair he meant a settle
ment satisfactory to both sides"
would be made.
Bowman reiterated his admira-
ton for Head Coach John Balm
Sutherland and said "a report cur
rent" that he was Indifferent to
football and did not appreciate
Sutherland was deliberate misrep-
resentation."
