When the All-! ky Mountain Cenference selections were com- piled by The Associated Press, the experts named three of Utah's championship quartet and Clark. After scoring all the points in his team's 13-0 victory over Colo- rado Mines ih the concluding game of the season, Clark was thus eulo- gized in one enthusiastic account: Clark has made the football ex- perts of the country take notice of this (the Rocky Mountain) confer- ence. He has made football popu- lar to persons who never before foi- fowed the game. He is the hero of small children, collegians, elderly matrons. He the idol of Young America in this section of the country and he is the friend of everyone.” If this isn't a paean of praise, it will do, as they say, until bet- ter paeans are found. is Those who had any cause for complaint about the “toughness” of Pittsburgh’s football schedule last year will hardly find any fault with the big program mapped for the Panthers next fall. Pitt, in addition to taking on its traditional foes around Pennsylvania and West Virginia, has booked Syracuse and Notre Dame for additional enter- tainment. The new contract Pitt has with the Army does not take effect until 1931. | Apparently something will be done about the criticism resulting from feeding a number of the smaller New England colleges and ! universities to the lions, especially! in the early part of the season. Buch schools as Vermont, Middle- bury, New Hampshire, Norwich,! Springfield, Tufts and othérs do! not relish tie idea of bemg ma.n— handled by the big fellow workout purposes, even chough the licking may be all for the best so far as the athletic treasury is con-| cerned. In other words, it 15‘ sometimes a matter of financial necessity for the smaller calleges.i Vermont, which was fed on |tsi first two Saturdays last season to New York and Yale, has lightened its schedule for 1930 to stay more within its own class of competition. ‘ A movement is on foot, sponsored at Boston University, for organi-! zation of a football conference with the smaller institutions playing a less high-powered brand of football. | The Middle West has largely de-! parfed from the idea that it is| necessary for a big college to be built up like a heavyweight boxer, and take on a few setups early inll the season. This is especially true of the Big Ten, Big Six and Notre Dame. Most of these outfits play major opponents from the outset. | There seems no reason why the bigger colleges elsewhere, especial- ly in the Eeast, should not stay within their own class of competi- tion despite the old argument about the difficulty of “peaking” for one rugged foe after another. Notre Dame furnished classic proof this past year that it can be done. Once their season is under way,' big league baseball teams do not | seek minor league opposition to make the April path any easier, nor- is it the custom in other co]leg.l sports such as rowing, hockey, bas- ketball, to look for soft spots.

The bulk of Chicle’s winnings | were contributed by three juve- ;mles. Harry Payne Whitney's cham- pion,, Whichone, being the chief contributor. Whichone, winner of the Belmont Futurity, won $129,455, { while Dustemall was responsible for 128,850 and Goose Egg, $12,925. Dis- traction, a four-year old, was the only eld m of Chicle to add to the winnings of the champion sire | Ranking sccond was Light Bri- gade, also an imported sire. His sons and daughters won $236,220 with the great three-year old filly | Rose of Sharon, responsible for the major portion. Rose of Sharon, which raced under the silks of Johnson in Camden, died near the close of the northern racing sea- son. Light Brigade was fortunat» in that his son, Dr. Freeland, far from a first class colt, won the valuable Preakness in May. Thanks to Clyde Van Dusen, Ken- tucky Derby winner, and Bateau, a flashy four-year old filly, Man O’ War ranked third with winnings of $215,220 Quarter Deck was the only, two-year old son of the super’ horse to graduate from the Ma! ranks. Man O'War issue, how- rich Upset had a high class four- year old out in Misstep, champion handicap horse of the middle-west and the American derby winner, Windy City, to place fourth. The winnings of his get amounted to $192,180. Black Servant, which placed fifth, was pretty much of a one-sire, horse, earning his position because | of the performances of Blue Lark- spur, E. R. Bradley's ranking three- | year old of the year. Black Serv- ants offspring won $172,570, of |which $153,450 was contributed by | Blue Larkspur, which topped the| money winners of the year.

Williams, in- cidentally, demonstrated his mas- tery was no fluke by invading the Eastern boards and losing only one race, to Jack Elder. George Simpson, Ohio State's greyhound, smashed the long-stand- ing 100-yard record at the Nation- jal Collegiate meet in Chicago, June 8, when he stepped off the distance in 9 2-5 seconds. He used the new starting blocks, so the record was raccepted conditionally by the Ama- teur Athletic Union. The official wogld’s mark of 9 3-5 seconds was beaten or equalled such regularity as to make the time common-place. Two notable worlds record achievements definitely approved were the discus toss of 163 feet, 8 3-4 inches by Eric Krenz of Stan- ford and the pole vault of 14 feet 1% inches made by Lee Barnes of Southern California, in 1928. Sabin Carr held the previous record of 1!4 feet flat. The suspension of two famous Olympic champions, Paavo Nurmi and Ray Barbuti, furnished early season sensations. Paavo was re- instated for a brief and somewhat colorless tour.

Cathcart of Douglas Local school officials expressed surprise this morning upon re- ceiving a challenge from Superin- tendent Cathcart of Douglas for a series of basketball games between the two schools. Coach Dunham says that in view of his efforts since about the first of December to arrange dates for the games, and his inability to come to some agreement with Supt. Cathcart, the insinuation in the challenge that Juneau has been negligent in this respect is unwarranted. “We are ready to play Douglas at any time,” he said, “and have been for the past month.” | Lecal officials point out that Supt. Cathcart does not appear satisfied with the elegibility rules which were adopted by the schools of Scutheast Ala in 1921 and which have been in use, with a few minor changes, since that time. However, as these rules have been satisfactory to all schools concerned since their adoption some nine years ago, local authorities see no great need for a change. Further- more they point out, any proposed changes in elegibility of students in interschool contests must be passed upon by all schools holding interschool contests in Southeast Alaska and should have been done ‘sufficiently early to have a free and full discussion of all proposed 'changes. They point out that students should be barred from do- ing that which, under present elegi- bility rules, they are permitted to do. For example, the provision made by Supt. Cathcart to bar all | |students from participation in bas- | |ketball who have participated in! ‘athlencs under any organization |other than a school, or for re-, muneration, would serve to bar iany student who had ever raced in !a Fourth of July race for a prize, ‘or who had ever played baseball with the city league or even if they played baseball under twelve \years of age as members of the| junior baseball league sponsored | here during the past few years by | the Elks lodge. | “I hardly know what Mr. Cath- | cart wants,” said Superintendent Keller. “We are ready to begin the | series anytime, under the same rules and regulations as‘'in use for the past several years, under the offi- | cial basketball rules, and according | to agreements which we have beenl [ following between the two schoolsf',' “These agreements, Supt. Keller | pointed out, were that the first| game be alternated between Juneau and Douglas from year to year, thus making the first game in Douglas one year and in Juneau the next; | that the series consist of four | games thus playing two games in| each town; if it becomes necessary to play a fifth game to decide the ' winners of the series, this game' also be alternated between the two towns, one year beir played in Douglas and the next year in Ju-| neau Thns is the year in which | game should be played in Juneau Even though Mr. Cathecart inti- | mates that a failure by Juneau to agree to the changes in elegibility at this late date “is liable, I am afraid, to stand in the way of our having a Juneau-Douglas series this season,” Supt. Keller sees no reason for not beginning the series prompt- ly and is hopeful that this may be! brought about. a g i WEEK OF PRAYER !
