NEW YORK. Dec. 5.-Alfred
G. Vanderbilt, president of the
Thoroughbred Racing Associa-
tions, suggested today that other
sports find out whats going on
within their houses" in order to
avert a scandal such as has hit
college basketball.
Vanderbilt, addressing officials
and executives representing 81
tracks at the 10th annual meet
ing Of the IRA at the Hotel
Plaza, urged other sports not to
wait for congressional commit
tees. district attorneys and pub
licity-seeking vigilante groups to
do the job that should be done
from within"
Regarding measures to prevent
scandals in sports Vanderbilt said:
"The study goes on but we believe
we already know the answers.
by keeping our own house
clean and in order, on our own
initiative and at our own expense,
racing as an organized sport is
in an enviable position. The spot
light of publicity and the scrutiny
of investigation need cause us no
fear"
Returning to his opening theme,
Vanderbilt said, Here's what
other sports must do:
"They must find out what's
going on within their houses.
They must set up a code of stand
ards against shady practices and
rigidly enforce it. They must set
up a self-policing system. They
must chase out of the sport the
termites who would destroy it.
They must not wait for congress
sional committees, district at
torneys and publicity-seeking vigi-
lante groups to do the job that
should be done from within"
Vanderbilt also touched on the
new Internal Revenue Act re-
quiring bookmakers to pay a spe-
cial tax.
What 10000 policemen in one
large city couldn't do, has been
done. temporarily at least, by a
simple little provision in the In
ternal Revenue Act. providing for
a special tax on bookmakers," he
said.

Vanderbilt's star passer, Bill

His overall defensive work was all
that could be desired.
Athey Of Baylor Terrific.
Bill Athey, Baylor guard, played
a terrific defensive game against
Rice. He stopped all plays di-
rected at his position and on four
occasions threw Rice backs for
losses. He made tackles all over
the field and recovered tumble
that set up a touchdown.
"Athey was terrific" said Coach
George Sauer. Il never saw a
greater game played by a line

The Washington Lions embark
on an extensive road trip after

club will be playing away from

Only two December games. on
the 14th and 28th, are scheduled
for tn Lions in Washington, but
after last nights dull perform
ance Riley and a good many OF
the 1923 fans who saw the most
recent defeat won't want to see
the club at home again until II

We're in a slump" Riley said,
land I'm hoping we can get
going on the road. AS long as
we're playing poorly I'd just as
soon do it away from home and
not lose our fans here"
Third Straight Loss.
A change of scenery has not
been the answer recently. The
Lions looked great last week in
tying Springfield. %. Tuesday,
and beating New Haven, 5-3, Fri
day. Then they lost at Atlantic
City Saturday and again against
the Rovers in Troy. N. Y, Sum-
day. Last nights defeat brought
the losing streak t. three straight.
However, some excuse can be
found for the Lions lack of sue
cess recently. After playing in
Atlantic City Saturday night. they
drove to Troy. arriving at 6 am.
After four hours sleep
they took on the Rovers In the
afternoon. then drove back to
Washington Monday. They were
tired last night and looked 1t.

INJURIES. Foley was linping on his
sore ankle after last nights game
md Gallagher, who was playing
for the first time in two weeks
because of conclusion, was suf-
.ering a headache after two
periods and left the ice.
This road trip is not as gruelling
and Riley is hoping the players
'eturn to form. Last night the
Lions, behind all the way, cut the
score to 2-1 and 80 at different
points but were too sluggish and
made too many mistakes to win,
The only bright spot was the
