Somewhat similar to this gentie touch designed to promote good feeling, it seems, was the ecaption of an editorial in the Daily Iowa. written at the time the University of Iowa was making its latest and unsuccessful bid for re-instatement in the Western Conference. The caption read: You can't track mud into a pig Here,” comments the Keokuk Gate City, “were these serious minded men in Chicago intent upon persuading the faculty committee of the Big Ten that Iowa was properly contrite over its past short- comings. Most of the charges were admitted, the petitioner's chief claim to reinstatement being evi- dence of a thorough house-clean- ing. Up pops the ebullient stu- dent, frothing over with the most inopportune indignation, while the Hawkeye delegation began to sce yisions of certain disaster to their well-laid plans.” Champions are usually in a tough spot, offering the main target for attack. There is no exception to this maxim in this list of major conference basketball champions, now on the firing line. for the 1929-'30 season: East—Pennsylvania. Big Nine—Michigan and Wiscon- sin. Big Six—Oklohoma. South—North Carolina State. Southwest-—Arkansas. Rocky Mountgin—Montana State. Pacific Coast—California. Arkansas has its Wear Schoon- over and Montana State its “Cat” Thompson for another drive but Pennsylvania Eastern League cham- pien for the past two years has lost the Quaker scoring ace, Joey Schaaf. Without Schaaf, Penn figures to have difficulty making it three in a row, especially as the rest of the Eastern clans look stronger than usual. Yale is about due for a ccmeback. The Elis won the title last in 1923, dropped into the cellar next year and have stayed there or next to it ever since. A little inspiration from Albie Booth may be a big help to the Blue quintet as it was to the football team. Negotiations for a $100,000 Inter- national horse race in 1930 at Arl- ington Park, Chicago, have reached an advanced stage, it develops, with the prospect of entries for such a classic by sportsmen of England, Belgium, France and possibly Italy. The last event of this caliber was conducted in 1923 at Belmont Park, where the rival Derby winners of England and America, Papyrus and Zev, raced for $100,000. This race, arranged by the late Major August Eelmont, was an artistic success but a competitive flop. Zev won under wraps from the game little British colt which had partially broken down in training. By widening the entry list, the proposed Chicago classic may be made more attractive by its spon- for, John Hertz, who began over- tures in England last summer when his former derby winner, Reigh Count, was campaigned over there.

LOUIS, Jan. 7~The man who was credited with building the first gasoline engine with electrical ignition west of the Mississippi has built an “aero-turbine” motor for the aviation industry. The internal combustion turbine motor designed by Otto Larson, veteran St. Louis engineer, is in- tended to eliminate fire hazards through the use of crude oil as fuel, and to make possible greater capacity of planes by eliminating lubricating oil. | | | Billiard Star airports that give passengers great-l r assurance. “If the landing speed of planes was cut to 25 miles an hour, pas- senger airports in the 4 Charged With Theft heart of the city would be more feasible.” One of Austin’s new station de-| signs is for a city, like Cleveland, on water, land and air routes.

'ONE CHAMPION IN " 'GOLF CROWNED ’29 | | NEW YORK, Jan. 7.—Harrison R. (Jimmy) Johnson, of St. Paul, was the only new major golf cham- pion crowned in 1929. He fell heir |to the national amateur crown after !Bobby Jones had been abruptly re- moved by an obscure Nebraskan, Johnny Goodman, in the first round of the tournament at Pebby Beach. Jones had won the amateur event four times in the previous five years. The Georgian was an over- whelming favorite to repeat, espec- ially after his victory in the na- tional open, gained in a one-sided playoff with Al Espinosa. England again proved the happy hunting ground for debonair Wal- ter Hagen, who won the British open for the fourth time after Leo Diegel “blew up” in the third round. Glenna Collett failed in a gallant bid to win the British women’s tournament, losing in the final to the great Joyce Wethered after negotiating the first nin> holes in a sensational 34. Glenna's fight carried her to victory in the na- tional event, however.” 548, Be-| recting their energy against recipro- catin gparts, expanding gases actu- ate a series of turbines.
