Ex-Stonford Runner Sovs
Ferris Helped Violate Rule

LOS ANGELES, April 25 (R.-
John T. Fulton, a former STAN
ford University track star, has
accused Daniel j: Ferris, secre-
tary-treasurer of the American
Amateur Athletic Union, of ar
ranging for him to make trip
to Canada that exceeded AAU
expense account rules.
Ferris. in New York, quickly
denied the allegation, branding
it as ridiculous.
Fulton, who was q half miller
at Stanford and captain of the
1916 United States track team
which toured Europe, held a long
conference yesterday with Larry
Houston, secretary of the South
ern Pacific Association OF the
AAU. Then he announced he
would place before the AAU Elk
ecutive Committee a charge that
Ferris was instrumental in my
detection" from amateurism.
Houston had informed Fulton
that his case would have to be
aired before the National Com
mittee.
1t was the Shocking" lifetime
suspension of Miller Yves Santee
that prompted Fulton's decision
to air his case, he told newsmen.
Fulton, 33, and now an indie
pendent television producer, dis
played a letter dated March 10.
1856, from Ferris in answer to
Fulton's wherein he told Ferris
they both might be guilty of vio-
lating rules.
Ferris diSclaimed any knowl-
edge of alleged irregularities. He
said: Your attempt to besmirch
my reputation is definitely Ii
belouS. If you violated the ANA
teur role you certainly did it
without my knowledge. Was your
letter written in an attempt to
intimidate me?"
Fulton told Houston and news
men that in 1914 he competed
in several Eastern indoor meets
at the invitation of the AAU.
He said he won events in the
Millrose Games in New York and
at Boston Gardens. He said he
was tired, had blisters on his
feet. and so went to Ferris and
told him he was returning home.
THE National Indoor cham
pionships were coming up and
Ferris asked me to stay on" Full
ton related. I'VE agreed that l
could take a trip to East Canada
to visit my grandparents, whom
I had not seen since I was little.
I got a voucher from the AAU
and bought a roundtrip plane
ticket to Canada. And I got
my 81 day expense money
every day I was away. 1 know

Although fishing wasn't any
too good over the week end, we
managed to have a very salts
factory time out of doors. There
is so much a person can do at
this season; tidying up around
house and garden; shooting trap
and skeet at some of the nearby
clubs: taking advantage of fair
weather to practice up with bow
and arrow, etc. We mixed several
of these. including some skeet
shooting at the Bethesda Chevy
Chase Ike Waltonian Club where
Chris Christopher won the Paul
Stone trophy shoot; a good
hours practice at archery butts
with Don Thompson. AS we are
rank beginners and were using
our new 30-pound Ben Pearson
beginners bows. we felt entirely
lacking in self consciousness
and thoroughly enjoyed our SEES
sion. 1t is interesting to have
friends josh us gently, but we
notice they come around to
watch and seem pleased to try
their hand. 1t is a great sport,

Poppy Sales Nets
$254 For Local
Auxiliary Unit

The annual Memorial Poppy
Sale of Richland Unit No. IL of
the American Legion Auxiliary
held Saturday May 26 in Sidney
and Fairview, netted the total of
S254 for the Poppy fund of the
local Unit. This is one of the
largest sums raised among sales
which have been held by the Unit
in the past, and the local Unit is
very grateful to the people of
the area for their fine support.
Money raised goes into a spe-
clal fund kept separate by the
Unit treasurer, from other Unit
finances, and used to buy veteran
made peoples next year, and to
furnish aid for needy veterans,
their families and their orphans.
Only projects directly related to
such veteran welfare and welfare
of veterans families may be fl
nanced from this fund.
The sale was directed by Mrs.
j. F. Murphy, as chairman, and
was conducted by the following
workers: Mrs. Bailey Fisher, Mrs.
Ada Warner, Mrs. Floyd Sax, Mrs.
Ida Phillips, Miss Carita Phillips,
Mrs. Norman Shotnakoff, Mrs. E.
o. Mniser, Mrs. Robert Palmer,
Mrs. Roy Rounce, Mrs. Martha
Marion, Mrs. j. Harry Clark, Mrs.
Charles Walker, Mrs. Margaret
Dave and Mrs. Henry Sorenson.
Some of the workers also went
to Fairview in the afternoon to
sell peoples there.
Posters were used from the pop
py poster contest to advertise the
sale in the window of McDon-
Department store.
The Unit wishes to thank the
store for the use of the window
and for its work in arranging the
posters; the workers for their
time and efforts; and the COM
nunity in general for its fine sup
port. No finer gesture of public
appreciation for the sacrifices of
our veterans, both living and dead,
.ould be asked or given.
