SP ORTS. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, FRIDAY, JANUARY Iowa U. Is Likely to Get Back Into the OTHERS IN ORGANIZATION FAVOR HAWKEYES’ RETURN Situation of “Outside Interference” Is Expected to Be Cleared Up in Time for Booking of Games for 1931 Campaign. BY H. C. BYRD. ern Conference at a reasonably early date, according to sev- UNIVERSITY OF IOWA probably will be readmitted to the West- eral persons in intimate touch with athletics in the Mid- dle West. From information gathered du Foot Ball Coaches’ Association an ring the meetings of the American d the National Collegiate Athletic Association in New York' it seems that the other Western Confer- ence universities have nothing against Iowa and actually rather sympathize with it in the predicament in which it finds itself. As soon as a certain situation at Iowa clears up the way for a resumption of relationships between Iowa and other Western Conference institu- tions will be smoothed out. Jowa has never been thrown out of the conference and now holds its membership in that body. It seems that what actually hap) ed at Jowa was the virtual loss of control of athletics by the faculty, or an acquirement of too much influence by outside interests. “It also seems that it never was the intention of the conference to bar Iowa permanently from competition, but to take an attitude that would throw the weight of conference influence back of a group at Iowa now making the | fight to.keep absolute control of ali athletics in the faculty of the uni- versity. “‘We mever had any intention of kicking Jowa out of the Western Con- ference,’ is the way one man connected prominently with conference athletics expressed it. ‘We felt that a situation had developed at Iowa where outside influences in athletics had become so strong that the university had virtually lost control of its own organization. I mean its athletic organization, of course. + That is a situskion that no conference could condone $i any of its members, and we simply took the only effectual means we knew of clearing up the matter.’ “One group is ‘working nard at Iowa to get things back in shape and we believe that group is succeeding. That group could not succeed, though, with- out the backing of the other nine mem. bers of the conference and we are giv- ing that group support. I personally believe that everything poinis toward people realize the situation. is true that the only way in which we have full authority to is to refuse )] “We, I personally and the whole Western Conference, want to help Iowa, not hinder it nor place obstacles in of the committee ht pass on the Iowa situation, eld this month, it is under- stood, but it is not likely that the situa- tion by that time will be such as to ‘warrant‘an Immediate favorable action. However, it is felt, by the time another meeting is held, which will be in time to_schedule es for the 1931 basket ball, base and foot ball seasons, that the ban is likely to be lifted and that in 1931 Towa will be back on the other conference university schedules. One of the initeresting phases of T terback strategy brought out byw).m Stevens, Yale in that MONROE A. C. QUINT LISTS 16 CONTESTS Monroe A.

The Hawks' clean record was marred last night when Mount Rainier A, C. was awarded a forfeit over them as the result of the Brentwood team failing to appear at game time. The Hawks flled a protest. Fans who turned out were not en- tirely disappointed, however, as a snappy game was staged in which Arcadians defeated Company F Re- serves, 16 to 14. ILevin and Holland with 8 and 7 points, respectively, led the winners’ attack. Jack Willilams with 6 points was high scorer for Company F. Because members of the team were more interested in basket ball and others had conflicting employment, the soccer team which represented Hyatts ville in the Washington Soccer League has disbanded. Fred Watson, who played goal for the team, has cast his lot with the Fashion | Shop, also of the Washington Soccer League. Hyattsville All-Stars have scheduled a4 home-and-home 10-game bowling series with the Happy Five, strong Baltimore team.

Sasse to suc- ceed Capt, Jones, who will be trans- ferred to duty at Fort Sill, Okla., was announced here last night by Gen. Wil- liam R. Smith, supérintendent of the United States Military Academy. Gen, Smith was traveling with the Army grid squad on its return from _California, where it was defeated by the team of Stanford University. It generally was expected that Maj Sasse would succeed to the position of head coach, but Gen. Smith gave the first official confirmation.

That third signal turned out to be the play on which the touchdown was made, and for which the quarterback got credit for a brilliant plece of strategy.

Tries Out New Defense BY SOL METZGER. California at Los Angeles experiment- ed with a defense last season that will need a little more ironing out before it holds water. It's a combination man- to-man and zone defense that is well worth passing on to the basket ball world. Like most other set defenses, the men break into two lines.
