SAN FRANCISCO, June Ia. tUP)
Representatives of the 10 Pacific
Coast Conference members opened
their spring meeting today stimuli
taneouSly with an announcement of
the University of California that its
coaching staff had been rehired and
football would continue.
California's announcement that
l.. B. (Stub) Allison and his staff
had been rehired was interpreted
as strong indication that the con-
ference members will approve some
form of league football competition.
Some sources predicted splitting the
conference into a northern and
southern division would provide the
solution.
TELLS PLANS
Clint Evans, general manager of
the California Associated Students,
announced the rehiring of the
coaching staff, adding that 1--WE plan
to go ahead with football in the

HAL DAVIS TAKES
RED HOT GRUDGE
TO TRACK MEET
Nv TOMMY DEVINE

EVANSTON, Ill, June IA. (UP)-
Hal Davis, brilliant University OF
California Sprinter, headed east to-
day for competition in the forth
coming National AAU track meet
and he carried a red-hot grudge
with him.
Davis made a successful defense
of his 100 and 220 yard dash cham
pionships in the 22nd annual Ma
tional Collegiate track and field
meet here Saturday and by the
double triumph proved himself in
tip-top shape for his farewell athlet-
ic appearance at New York.
"Hurrying Hal" for the past two
gears the peer of the collegiate
worlds sprintcrs, has deep-Seated
peeVe against the AAU because its
iff-shirtcd fathers refused to re-
cognizc q 9d second record claim
he submitted for the century.
TuREW OUT CLAIMS
"ThCy threw out my record claim
at their annual convention in Chi
cago last December Hal said, be
cause they claimed | used illegal
starting blocks. That's the bunk.
Their protest against my blocks was
that my toe was off the ground
when using them. Don't let anybody
tell you that gave me an advantage.
Anyway they threw the record claim
out although l thought ] was en-
titled to it.
The 04 would have put Davis in
The record books alongside such no
tables as Frank Wykoff, Jesse Owens,
CLYDE Jeffrey, George Simpson and
Ralph Metcalfc. He'd still like TO
gain membership in the list and the
AAU meet is his last chance.
That's my final competitive ap-
pearance, he said bluntly, after
that I'm through running. With the
war going on there's no incentive
to continue in competition. I'm in
the Marine reserves and expect to
be called for active duty about the
first Of next month, SO that's an
other reason I'm quitting"
WINS 100
Davis won the 100 here Saturday
in 10 seconds flat and the 220 in
2l.4 seconds. Neither time however,
was representative of his ability or
his fine condition. Although COM
Getting on a fast track he ran both
events against a strong in-the-face
wind that precluded record perfor-
mances.
Davis was one of the three 1912
champions to defend successfully
individual championships and one
of two competitors in the field to
score a double.
The other defending champions
who came through we're Jack De-
Field of Minnesota in the pole vault
and Cliff Bourland of Southern
California in the 440-yard dash. The
second double" winner was Rice's
Bill Cummins, who won the 120
yard high and 220 low hurdles.
The team championship went to
Southern California for the ninth
consecutive season. A gallant four
man Trojan squad composed of
Bourland, sprinter, Jack Trout,
broad jumper, Edsel Curry and
JaVelin thrower Doug Miller rolled
up as points to spring one of the
seasons major upsets. Southern
California's war depleted squad had
been consigned to the also ram
list in pre-meet calculations.
California, thanks to Davis great
individual work, finished second
with 80 points. Rice was third with
2e noints New York university
fourth with 81 points and Minneso-
la fifth with 81 points A total of
~ Doints broke into the score able.
