The code, governing how much

for its inflexibility-failing TO take
into account the ratio of job op-

Frank ]. Delaney. solicitor Of
the Post Office Department, in a
letter to Representative Miller
states 1T is the position Of this
Office that although skill is un-
doubtedly present in flshing-in
the selection of ones equipment,
etc, yet, the size of the fish caught
is matter of chance. Therefore,
if prizes are offered for the largest
fish and it is necessary to pay an
entry fee or furnish any other
consideration in order to be eligi-

such plan is -mailable under

CHICAGO. April 5.-The
Southern bloc which has stamped
the present NCAA sanity code un-
workable believes the simple solu-
tion lies in granting free room
and board to needy athletes.
Bernie Moore. commissioner of
the Southeastern Conference, said
this will be the South's suggestion
placed before collegiate athletic
policy makers in session today and
tomorrow.
Representatives of 10 confer
ences open debate on the contro-
versial code with the hope Of
drafting changes satisfactory to
all for formal presentation at the
annual NCAA convention in Dali
las next January.
Moore said the South has found
it almost impossible to conform
with the work part Of the code. J"
This states student must earn
his room and board and other
things over and above his tuition
and fees.
Opposition Expected.
THE Southeastern Conference
does not have any job structure
that can conform with this" said
Moore Of Alabama. Il don't know
whether an adjustment can be
made or not. but if free board
and room can be allowed a lot
of pressure on our job structure
would be eliminated"

Andy Bowen Funeral
To Be Held Friday;
Burial in Arlington

Funeral services for Andy Bow
en-, a popular lightweight boxer of
nearly three decades ago here,
who died yesterday at Bethesda
Naval Hospital, will be held Fri
day. Services will be at 1890
pm. at the Chambers funeral
home, SIT Eleventh street Sc,
and burial at Arlington National
Cemetery. He served in the Army
In World War II.
Bowen was 50 and had been Ill
nearly two months. He under
went an operation about a month
ago and for a time his doctors
thought the splendid physical con-
dition for which he always was
noted would pull him through.
Men who knew Bowen in his
fighting days were high in praise
of his ability and crowd pleasing
style. Among those who speak
highly of him are Heinie Miller,
chairman of the District Boxing
Commission; frankie Mann, pro-
moter of many of his fights; Col
die Ahearn, now a boxing pro-
moter here. and who fought Bowen
a number of times, and Gordon
Leech, now manager of the Zoo
Park restaurant, and who man
aged Bowen as a fighter.
Gave Ahearn Worst Licking.
Miller remembers Bowen as "a
slugging. tearing club fighter, as
tough as they come and boy
who was willing and able to give
anybody a battle. He was the
kind of fighter who today would
be big attraction
Ahearn said that Bowen was
one of the incest guys 1 know
outside the ring. But as a fighter
he was murder. I know. because
l guess he gave me the worst
licking I ever took in one of our
fights"
BoWens real name was Henry
Harold Bowen, but he took the
ring name of Andy" probably
because of his admiration for the
famous Andy Bowen who fought
the longest fight with gloves on
record, Hereunder against
Jack Burke in New Orleans in
1893. He was one of six brothers
the others are Ray, Johnny,
George. Eddie and Bill-from
Newcastle, Pa, who achieved
some measure of fame as boxers
here in the days before the sport
was legalized. Ray now is a box
Ing referee here.
Claimed Southern Title.
Andy, fighting from 1918 through
1926, probably was best of the lot
and claimed the lightweight cham
pionship of the South. Among the
Well-knoWn boxers he faced in ad-
dition to Ahearn were Joe Dundee.
