MICHIGAN LEADER FLAYS DR, SAVAGE Charges Author of Carnegie Bulletin 23 Made No Ef- fort to Be Fair. By the Associated Press. NN ARBOR, Mich,, January 23. —Prof. Ralph W. Aigler, chair- man of the board in control of athletics of the University of Michigan, in a letter to Dr. Howard J. Savage of New York, author of bulletin 23 of the Carnegie Foundation, accuses Dr. Savage of having “no intention to be fair and accurate” in the bulletin which n | cites a number of colleges and univer- sities as “subsidizing” or “recruiting” athletes. The letter, which was maliled yester- day, is an answer to statements made by Dr. Savage to newspapers after Prof Aigler’s annual report was pre- sented to the university faculty Mon- day night. Prof. Aigler gave out a copy of the letter for publication today after the orl;lnnl should have been delivered to Dr. Savage. Questions Tactics. Prof. Aigler accuses Dr. Savage of qu!stlnnublc tactics in sending to the president of the University of Mlchlnn a report of conditions at Ann Arbor different from the report which he in- corporated in bulletin 23, and of mak~ - | ing misleading inferences in his report of athletic conditions at Michigan. The professor reiterates his accusation that the investigator removed letters from the files of the athletic department to which he was allowed full access and retumed photostatic coples when the originals were requested. Prof. Aigler’s letter follows: “I have read in the newspapers of Ys | yesterday afternoon and this morning 'n€ | what purports to % | certain be your comment upon phases of my annual report.

BY PAUL ZIMMERMAN, Assoclated Press Sports Writer. GUA CALIENTE, Lower Calif., January 23.—The stubborn, subtle Agua Caliente course, which through 54 holes of play held its par barrier of 71 strokes un- broken, today stretched out in menac- ing fashion before 58 prospectors for the world's largest golf treasuer as they faced the final round of the $25,- 000 classic. ‘With the $10,000 first-place prize al- most_within their grasp, two pacemak- ers, Horton Smith of Joplin, Mo, and Al Espinosa, Chicago, clung to & melxer one-stroke advantage as they turned to the final 18 holes, already 11 strokes over perfect figures. Their score for the three days of play stood at 224. A dozen or more contenders pressed closely behind, within stroking distance of the championship, as they paraded toward the pot of gold which marks the end of the “rainbow trail” through Pacific Coast Winter money tourna- ments, Close Behind Leader. ‘The nearest of these were Al Watrous, Detroit; Charles Guest, Los Angeles, and Olin Dutra, Santa Monica, Calif.; just a stroke behind the 21-year-old Missourian and the master aum of the Fairways from Chicago. Two strokes away was Johnny Farrell, the strong- est Eastern threat, while Mortie Dutra, ‘Tacoma, Wash.; Macdonald Smith, Long Island, N. Y., and Gene Sarazen, New York, held close to the front with 227. Cards of 228 put Henry Ciuci, Bridge- port, Conn.; Ed Dudley, Wilmington, T:l, and George Von Eim, the leading amateur, among the front rank con- tenders. Thirty-one players were clus- tered within 10 strokes of the lead, all of them potential money winners, with 20 cash prizes offered.

Yesterday's high wind, which swept down from the mountains through Tia Juana valley to throw the entire field off its game, thrust several contenders completely out of the picture and caused the top contenders no end of worry.

NEW YORK GAMES ATTRACT THRONGS Harvard and Yale Also Are | Much More Interested in Floor Sport. BY LAWRENCE PERRY. ASKET BALL in the East has at last taken on a marked impetus. Indications now are that within a compara- tively short time the court game in this section will rival the Mid- dle West, the South and the Rocky Mountlm regions in popularity. New York and Georgetown fives played to the est crowd in the his- tory of basket ball at the institution on University Heights. Thirty-five hundred spectators saw the game and 1,000 more were crowded out. City College and Manhattan Colleg® played, and only 20 per cent of the number of enthusiasts who tried to see the game could be accommodated. The Fordham-Franklin and Marshall game was also a sell-out. Here are three games played in New York City on the same night, at all of which the demand for seats exceeded the supply by thousands. To one familiar with the mild attitude toward basket ball or the college sport-loving public of the metropolis which has ex- isted In previous years the improved conditions this season are not less amazing than gratifying. In the Eastern Intercollegiate Basket Ball League, Yale where the game has not been very ular, reports a de- cided awakening of student and alumni interest, and at Harvard Bill Bingham declares every indication is that basket ball is going to be one of the big sports at Cambridge as soon as adequate facil- ities are provided. Pennsylvania is drawing big crowds to the Paleastra. The news about Harvards's interest in the court fnme is interesting. New Eng- land has lagged behind the rest of the country not only in enthusiasm for the game, but in quality of play. So the impulse at Cambridge may be regarded as a sign of what is going to happen throughout this region. ‘The victory of Harvard over the all- conquering West Point five was, of course, a surprise. It came just at the right time to give a jounce to develop- ing enthusiasm for the sport. It is a curious thing about basket ball teams of the two service academies that they are very much more formidable upon their own courts than when traveling. Teams they handle without too great difficulty at West Point and Annapolis turn the tables when they catch either of the academy fives on a foreign floor. The trouble is that the Middies and the Cadets are not so accustomed to migration as college play- ers that they become used to a routine and are at a loss when they break it by one of their rare visits to the court & rival seat of Ing.
