EW YORK, November 22 —Ex- | cept for a few stray shots here and there among those who cherish the old-fashioned mili~ tancy. there appears likely to 2 no “war” between the athletic gov- rning powers of the United States this Ninter. From the fashion in which the verbal unfire was let loose before, during and {ter the Olympic games, it has seemed hat the rival parties—namely, those >d by the Amateur Athletic Union on ne side and the National Collegiate A. A. on the other—hardly could be re- strained from leaping upon one another. The disposition seemed to be to ig- |- 10re any question of its being a privaie dght and jump right in. The A. A: U., however, has with one or two swift gestures paved the way for peace, not only within its own ranks, but in relations with the college au- thorities. This conflict of authority and ambition. between the N. C. A. A. | and the A. A. U. has been back of most of the athletic squabbles in the last two decades. By removing the registration techni- | calities, hitherto objectionable to the ollege groups, the A. A. U. has taken a far-reaching step toward better feel- ing. By electing to the presidency Avery Brundage of Chicago, a “Big Ten” man, the union has selected its| leader from the heart of the so-called enemy territory.” Brundage Will Fight. | Chicago has been the headquarters | of anti-A. A. U. sentiment. The “Big Ten,” through its commissioner, Maj. John L. Griffith, has opposed the A. A. | U. policies on many occasions. It was | one of the groups to withdraw from the Olympic Assoclation several years ago as an aftermath to the row for control of that body. If there is any more shooting. there- fore, Brundage will be in the front line trenches, but athletic observers feel there is every reason to look forward instead to a period of peace. A. A. U. men, at least, consider they have done a large part toward restoring harmony and effecting an adjustment of policy consistent with changing times. It will be interesting to note what re- ception these gestures receive when the National Collegiate A. A. holds its an- | Pen: nual convention in New Orleans the last week in December.

Star Teams to Bowl. Most of the entries received to date are from outstanding bowlers. Some strong combinations are entered. In some_instances the wife rates higher in ‘women's ranks than her husband does in the men’s, and in others the husband outranks the wife. This is one tournament in which there will be no favorites. Most of the entries appear evenly matched. Blick predicts that between 30 and 40 couples will compete. Entries are being received at both Convention Hall and the Arcadia. The entry list to date includes the following: Mr._and Mrs. Albert Fischer, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mischou, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Miltner, Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Nell, Mr. and Mrs. Phillip L. Goodall, Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Malcomb, Mr. and Mrs. Albert Ford, Mr. and Mrs. E. J. You- mans, Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Fraser, Mr. and Mrs. George L. Isemann, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Urban, Mr. and Mrs. Jo- seph Mulroe, Mr. and Mrs. Waterman, Mr. and Mrs. Whitbeck, Mr. and Mrs. Paxton, Mr. and Mrs. Dobson and Mr. and Mrs. Hanson. Plans have been made to suspend activities in both the men's and women'’s doubles leagues on December 22 and 29, the two nights set for the man-and-wife tournaments—so that bowlers in those two circuits will be free to enter the special tourney. Lucky Strike alleys have a namesake. Bill Wood has announced that the new Meyer Davis establishment at Charlotte, N. C, has been given that name. A public contest was held at Charlotte similar to the one promoted here to secure a name for the new alleys. A Charlotte woman was the first to sug- gest the name, Lucky Strike. Manager Wood is ‘making plans for an elaborate opening at Charlotte the first week in December. A number of and on cylinder walls cause the wear that few oils can prevent- but here’s the proof of how local stars will accompany him there for the inaugural ceremonies. Promoters of the Meyer Davis ladies’ sweepstakes tournament, which opens at King Pin No. 2 Saturday night, were agreeably surprised to learn that sev- eral of the entries received were from fair bowlers who are not affiliated with any league. The affair has proven very attractive to the woman bowlers, not only to the stars, but to several who never have participated in any | such event. The number of entries will not be known until the contestants take the drives Saturday night at 8 o'glock. Those competing will post their $3 entry fee at that time. Three games will be rolled at King Pin No. 2 and a like number will be rolled at Lucky Strike and King Pin No. 1 on succes- sive Saturday nights. Total pinfall for nine games will decide the winner.

The conference is full of stout players, and when you add to these the men of Notre Dame— Miller, Moynihan, Law, Chevigny, Col- lins, Niemiec and the rest—you find that the stars of the Middle West closely stud the foot ball sky. Yet this section of the country can show no greater linemen than Howe of Princeton; Westgate, Magai and Smith of Penn, Hibbs of Southern California, Barrett of Harvard, Green.of Yale, Grant of New York University and Moone{ of Georgetown, or any better backs than Scull of Penn, Cagle of the Army, Williams of Southern California, Harpster of Carnegie Tech, Strong of New York University, Thomason and Mizell of Georgia Tech, Snyder of Maryland and Decker of Yale.

NEW = YORK, November 22. — Whether Tom Heeney, sturdy New: Zealand fighter, who was the loser in Gene Tunney's last appearance as heavyweight champion, retires from the ring depends on his opponents more than anything else. In his first interview since he reached New York, Heeney sald that he was very uncertain about contin- uing his ring career, but that he would like to keep on if he could fight only men suited to his style. “I want to fight some more and then again I don’t,” Heeney explained. “My wife wants me to get out while I am sound in body and mind. I feg) I've fought them all. There are no new ones around for me to tackle and I have a little money. I'd like to get into some business which would bring a satis- factory income. That’s one side of it. “Yet I'd like to keep on if I could fight men suited to me and style, I don’t mean that I want to pick op= | ponents. But what I mean is to fight | men near my own size and more close~ ly related to me in style—fellows like Sharkey, Risko, Paulino and Dempsey —any one of the four or all four of tham. That would be better than if I fought somebody like Tunney, bigger than me and given to boxing rather than fighting.” Apparently discounting the possibility of wading through an elimination tournament to the haevyweight title, Heeney did not think much of the money to be won in the ring. “I suppose I could earn about $40,000 |in ‘a year's fighting,” he said. “And | against this there is the idea of expos- ing yourself to injury.” {NURMI NOT TO INVADE U.S. UNTIL DECEMBER | HELSINGFORS, Finland, November | 22 (#).—Paavo Nurmi, who was - | uled to sail for the United States more than a week , is still here.
