Big Ten Doesn't Care About Gate-NOt Much; Cpl. Conn Pops Out of Blouse at Camp Lee;I Long
 Walk But They'll Get to 'Gansett

Lee, Va, the other day, had to draw 8 new one.
 Corporal Conn now weighs 205 pounds with his clothes on. Allow ing 10 pounds for government issue, he scales 195, and isn't loafing. He says he would come in at 185 if he could get another crack at Sgt. Joe Louis this summer.
 Instructor oCnn is sharpening up 8 bit for an exhibition with 1talo Colonello, which Is to head 0 set of soldiers bouts in Richmond in March. The purpose is to raise Suf- ficient money to build bleachers on the Camp Lee athletic field.
 You hear the same story at Camp Lee-not enough athletic equip ment.
 Narragansett Park officials an- nounced that they will duplicate last years program of 67 racing days.
 Narragansett is five mile from the Pawtucket railroad station, six from the one in Providence and 37 miles from Boston.
 Until Narragansett spoke up so enthusiastically, 1t was suspected that, in view of travel restrictions, Suf- folk Downs would have New Eng land racing alto iself-for 60 days starting in mid-May. They can get there on street car.
 Tn face of the Narrangsett deci- sion, however, it wouldn't bt sur prising 0 see Rockingham go through. It is situated seven miles from Lawrence, IS from oBston. Boston.
 Narragansett most likely will hear from Rubber Administrator Jeffers, but giv ethe suckers horses and they'll find their own way, rocking l on rnlIrd heels

American Hockey League Shows Eight
 In "lOO Goal Club''
Cleveland BarOn's Lock- ing Leads With l44 Tal-
 lies in Seven Seasons

Now in its seventh season of bat- ting on the ice. the American Hockey League is just beginning to take note of those able athletes who have succeeded in scoring 100 or more goals. When the present campaign got under way there were just three to achieve this distinc. tion, Norm Locking and Art Giroux of Cleveland and Maxie Bonnet of Buffalo. Since then five more have entered the ranks of the century scorers and one more has @ good chance to break into select society before the season closes.
 Locking was out in front with 121 goals when hostilities opened and Giroux was in second place with III. Bennett had just an even 100. Then, as now, Locking is the leader and through games of February 9th had succeeded in lifting his League total to the smart figure of IA goals. Giroux has added 12 to his total for the seven-year span and Bennett is in fourth place with 1l7.
 The first century goal came on January 22nd, 194l when Locking slipped the puck through the up- rights against Providence that night The following December. the 18th to be exact, Giroux scored his tooth against Indianapolis. Bennett's tooth marker came on March 11th. i942, also against Indianapolis.
 Going Good
 Just how effective has been the cannonading on the part of the leagues veterans Is shown by the l942-43 record to date. Fred Thurier of Buffalo was the first and he chose the game of October 27th against Indianapolis to make his mark. Les Cunningham selected Pittsburgh as his victim on Novem- Der 2lst and then along came Dede Klein of Buffalo to score No. 100 against Washington on December 20th.
 Since the coming of the new year, Earl Bartholome of Cleveland and Jack Toupin of Providence have be- come members of the club, the former coming through on January l6th against Providence and the latter on January 24th against Cleveland.
 At the moment Hemmerling of Pittsburgh has seven-year total of 96 and he needs only five more, a by no means impossible task. But the others are hardly in position to qualify. Heating of Indianapolis. Deacon of Cleveland, and Mason,of Philadelphia all were within strik- ing distance but they are out of competition now. Here's how the leaders were grouped through

By Cut in Strength
Under Consideration

Several new members of the House
are expected to be offered vacancies
on the House District Committee,

| Assignments are being given care
ful consideration by the Demo-
cratic members of the Ways and
Means Committee, acting as a COM

At the same time, plans are under
way to "streamline" the committee
by reducing it from the present au-
thorized strength of 81 to Is or less.
This may be brought about either
by leaving number of vacancies
or by action of the Rules Commit
tee fixing the size.
At present, there are eight va
cancies on the committee. In ad-
ultlon, at least six holdover mem
bers are seeking assignments to
