Coach Adolph Rupp, veteran

AAC League Records
By the Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. u.s.
Records set in the old All-Amer-
lea Conference are likely to be-
come just noteworthy perform
ances in the newly organized Ma
tional- American Football League.
Commissioner Bert Bell of NATL
said yesterday he hasn't decided
definitely what he'll do regarding
records. But he indicated the
NAIL will adopt in full the rec
erds established by the National
Football League.
The owners Of the 13-team
league adjourned their five-day
session without discussing records.
If the NFL records become the
league standard that'l mean such
passing stars as Otto Graham OF
the Cleveland Browns and Frankie
Albert of the San Francisco 49ers
will have to forget their AAC ex-
ploits.
Another league official said the
AAC records probably would be
entered in the book as noteworthy

New Baltimore Harness Track
To Be Ready for July Ia Start

Dick Hutchison. jr.. by now an
expert on getting new harness
horse racing tracks started,
doesn't expect to have the same
last-minute confusion at the open
ing Of the new Baltimore Race
way on July IA that attended the
three previous openings of har-
ness plants in Maryland.
Hutchison yesterday was named
assistant to the president and
manager of the $1,300,000 track
now being built just outside Bal
timore on Route 40. 1t will be the
third track he helped start. He is
president and general manager of
Laurel Raceway. which pioneered
the sport in Maryland three sum-
mers ago, and last year he was
general manager of Ocean Downs
at Ocean City, Md. for its first
season.
Both those tracks. as well as the
Rosecroft Raceway, near Wash
ington. had construction photo
finishes with opening dates for
their first meetings with work
men scurrying around the plants
until the last minute. But things
will be different at Baltimore, says
Hutchison. Weather conditions
have put them far ahead of Sched-
ule there, and completion dates
for all contracts are June Is,
month before opening date.
More Stake Races Planned.
The appointment of Hutchi-
son. 31-year-old harness horse
breeder and owner of Laurel, Md,
and a graduate of Washington's
Western High School, to the
Baltimore post was announced
yesterday by Eugene H. Beer. jr.,
president of Baltimore Raceway.
Hutchison Immediately announced
plans for improving the class of
horses racing not only at the
two tracks he's connected with,
but at all four Maryland tracks.
1--WE all are increasing the
number and purses of our stake
races" he said. ALSO all of us
are writing the specifications for
our stakes so they'll fit the same
type of horses-thus an owner
can come here for several races
instead Of just one. It will at
