May Probe Badger| Situation Further Big Ten Faculty Committee Head Polls Members on New Investigation Chicago, Feb. 17.—(#)—The cleanup of the University of Wisconsin ath- letic department tangle may have stirred up another investigation. Prof. George A. Works of the Uni- versity of Chicago, chairman of the western conference faculty athletic committee, Monday polled the other nine members of his group, to deter- mine whether an investigation of the Badger situation should be made. Professor Works said that, in his judgment, the Wisconsin board-of re- gents had violated a conference rule which vests control of athletics in the faculty by ordering the dismissal of Dr. Walter E.

The victory was the second lin as many nights, the Jays having defeated Bismarck Friday. After enjoying a sizeable lead through the first three periods, Coach Erwin Gussner of the Jays sprinkled his lineup with reserves and it was at this period the Braves pulled up, although the Jays never were in danger of being overtaken.

The rally faltered With the score 35-33 in ithe Phantoms’ favor and two free throws and a field goal by Meinhover sewed up the victory in the closing minutes. Al Cassel, Jamestown coach, startet a lineup consisting of three former Bismarck high school stars but re- placed Ernie Manney, Gus Schlicken- meyer and Bud Westby midway in the first half with Peterson, Schauer and! Thunem, regulars. Agre Is High Scorer Agre, returning to the familiar Memorial building floor, garnered 14 points on five field goals and four free throws for high-scoring honors, followed closely by Bondy with 12 points, Meinhover with 11 and Lee with 8. In addition to Agre, Thunem, vet- eran guard, and Peterson, center, turned in the best performances for the Jimmies. Bondy, Meinhover and Lee were outstanding offensive performers for taking the old book apart. They put it back’ together with several minor changes and one major “suggestion.” The “suggestion” was that the so- called “slow whistle” be eliminated. The delayed whistle made it possible for a ball carrier to break away, kick or flip a lateral pass after he had been checked by a tackler. The sug- gestion means play will be stopped a split second quicker. Other changes: Players may run, pass or kick a blocked punt that hasn’t crossed the scrimmage line. Heretofore the ball has been dead on recovery. Players ineligible to receive passes cannot. take a position in advance of the spot where the ball is either caught or knocked down. Teams must be ready to play the second half without notification or suffer a 15-yard penalty. . Formerly the loss was 25 yards. Referees will not be too drastic if @ player brushes a punter in a legiti- mate manner. If the offense appears deliberate, last year’s five yard pen- alty holds good.
