SPORTS. DIVIDED AUTHORITY NOT WORKING WEL Georgia Tech Building Up Track Carnival—Sprint Rivals to Meet. BY H. C. BYRD. ORTH CAROLINA STATE COLLEGE may reorganize its whole system of inter- collegiate athletics. It is understood that everything at the Raleigh institution has not been going along as well as might be, and there is a decided sentiment trending toward getting a man to put in charge of all sports and give him an opportunity to build up a close-knit organization. Apparently divided authority is not | working so well, and nothing like con- sistent success has graced Carolina State teams in several years. [ It seems that successful athletics is just about as dependent on treating them as a department of the univer-| sity as any other work is treated. No college or university would think of set- ting up a department of chemistry or history or economics with two heads and the consequent divided authority and lack of responsibility that would bring about, vet & good many of them do just that in athletics. Now it seems that a good many people at North Car- olina State are beginning to feel what they need is a capable strong man, to whom shall be given complete author- ity, to head up its organized sports. Nearly all successful athletic systems are built up by some man who has the personality and ability to head a de- partment and organize into a co-opera- tive unit all the factors that have to do with sports in the modern sense. Out at the University of Illinols, for instance, one hears a good deal of Bob Zuppke, foot ball coach, but actually the fine system of athletics at that uni- versit; is due almost entitely to the genius and organizing ability of one man—George Huff. That is one side of the picture, and. in contrast, it might be mentioned that the University of | Pennsylvania would be almost unbeat- | able in general college athletics if it had one guiding hand to manage its affairs. The growing sentiment at North Car- olina State crystallizes sufficiently to cause the authorities to comb the coun- try for one capable man, hire that man and give him the authority to or- ganize the athletic department as he pleases; then North Carolina State will make the start which will give it the kind of teams it is entitled to and ob- tain for it the type of schedules it desires. Georgia Tech seems to be building up a set of relay races and a general track and field meet in Atlanta that is likely soon to take its place among the big meeéts of the country. Larger and larger crowds are attending every year and better and better perform- ances are being seen. In the games of last week Farmer ran the 100-yard dash in 94-5 seconds to make a new record for the meet, while many of the other marks in individual competition were nearly as good. Hamm of Georgia | Tech broad jumped 24 feet 91z inches and McGinn of North Carolina ran the half in less than 2 minutes. ‘When North Carolina meets Virginia in a dual meet later this Spring it is likely that the two fastest sprinters in the South will face. Farmer, of course, will be the North Carolina representa= tive, while Whisnant is Virginia's run- ner. In a dual meet with Virginia Poly- technic Institute Saturday Whisnant covered the 100-yard dash in 10 seconds flat and then ran the 220-yard dash in 21.5 seconds. In the dual meet at Blacksburg V. P. 1. team also trotted out a man of ex- ceptional ability. In the shotput and discus Swart made excellent marks by putting the 16-pound shot 44 feet Tl inches and throwing the discus 133 feet | 714 inches, which will come pretty close | to winning these two events in any meet. in the South. Virginia’s _decision to build a new stadium calls to mind that there are not so very many up-to-date structures of this kind in the South. As a matter of fact, there are just eight. Georgia | Tech, Georgia. Florida, Tulane, Ken- tucky, Vanderbilt, Duke and North Carolina have exceptional plants, all seating around 25,000 persons, although one or two go beyond that. Georgia Tech’s is the largest, as it takes care of about 35,000. Several other schools have good foot ball flelds and good stands, but do not have plants such as have been erected by those mentioned. Maryland found the Western Mary- land lacrosse twelve easier than it ex- gcted Saturday at College Park. The 1d Liners were against a heavier and faster aggregation, but knew more la- crosse than their opponents. The vic- tory of last week almost makes certain that the College Park school will go into its biggest home game of the year, with Army on April 26, without a defeat. Georgla is to come up for a contest this week, but it is unlikely that it should furnish very strenuous opposition. Its team simply has not had enough experi- ence to warrant much thought that it will prove a serious contender. Johns Hopkins, which has been ex- pecting to have one of its greatest la- crosse teams, took a whipping last week from Mount Washington. The victory of the club was somewhat unexpected by the university men, although the former was made up of much more experienced players. Former Hopkins and Maryland players furnished the bulk of the strength of the Mount Washington twelve. It is doubtful if any dual track and field meet ever drew together more real stars than the one held at Los Angeles last week between Southern California and Stanford. A glance at the marks made in the various and several events is sufficient to indjcate the kind of com- tition and the ability of the competi- rs. The 100 yards was done in 93 seconds, the quarter in a fraction over 48 seconds, the 2 miles in just a fraction over 9 minutes 55 seconds, the half in a little over 1 minute 57 seconds, four men in the broad jump leaped farther than 24 feet, the javelin was thrown more than 200 feet, the 220-yard low hurdles was done in 24%; seconds, two men in the shotput .tleared over 51 feet, the discus was thrown 156 feet and four men tied in the pole vault at 13 feet 3 inches. The high jump was won with a leap of little over 6 feet 5 inches, and the mile relay in 3 minutes 1535 sec- THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €., MONDAY, APRIL 14, 1930.

Southern California won the meet by a decisive margin, but the Stanford relay team was victor in time that set a new world record for the distance.

Tomorrow Bucknell's base ball team comes here for a game With Georgetown as the only competition on 8 local field.

Chevaller has been knocked out many times before. Carnera’s retinue of managers has been accused of picking “soft ones” for the big Italian, but whether this is true or not, a large throng is expected to attend the scheduled 10-round bout. With choice seats selling at 85, Pro- moter Louis Parente has made arrange- ments to accommodate a crowd ac- counting for gate receipts of $20,000 or more.
