HATCHET IS BURIED BY CRINSON, TGER Harvard and Princeton to | Resume Sports Rivalry | ' Except on Grid. the Associated Press EW YORK, February 14.—After | | nearly five years of agreeing to | disagree, the athletic author- ities of Harvard and Princeton have agreed to agree—that is, in every- | | thing except foot ball | 1 Announcement that the schools will resume athletic relations was published It carried the joint signatures of Dr. Charles W.

Con- tests with other colleges, which pre- sumably included Princeton, were to| be scheduled “only a¢ sultable inter- vals.” Additional fuel was heaped on the| fire by an issue of the Harvard Lam- | poon circulated at that November 6 | foot ball game, which carried sharply | pointed jokes and an editorial. The| editorial “called the game a “glorious| free-for-all masquerading under the | name of foot ball” and ended, “The| Princeton brawl comes but once a year; it may never come again.” Accusations of “dirty foot ball” fol- lowed.

Southwestern Louisiana, 52; Louisi- ana College, 34 Citadel, 34 Newbermya 26, By the Associated Press. 0OS ANGELES, February 14.— An echo of the charity foot ball game here last December between former Notre Dame stars and a West-Scuth eleven sounded today, With the sponsors and Coach Knute Rockne arguing over $9,000 expense money. Rockne, who arrived yesterday on business, and Frank H. Hutton, ex- alted ruler of the local Elks Lodge that sponsored the game, exchanged verbal punts, Hutton finally indicat- ing he would demand an immediate accounting of the $9,000 advanced by the Elks to bring the Irish here. “Unless an_accounting is made by Rockne,” Hutton said, “I intend to take the matter up with the Board of Directors of the Elks' Building Association and recommend the filing of a civil suit in Superior Court Monday.” Rockne retaliated by saying all of the sum was used in bringing the team o Los Ange'es for the game and that in addition several hundred dollars of his own money went into the business of making the game a success. Hutton charged that less than $1,000 of the $65,000 gate in the contest went to the l?umll or- ganization's charity fund. ©itaon Asserted that n addition to Knute Spent $9,000 to the $9.000 advanced to Rockne, $1,500 was paid “Hunk” Anderson, coach In charge, when the Rockne- men arrived, while &till another $500 was necessary to bring Joe Savoldi from Chicago to perform. Instead of 20 Notre Dame players, including Savoldi, 30 gridders, minus “Jumping Joe,” showed up for the game, Hutton said. Rockne said “everything was car- ried out as promised to Mr. Hutton. Every penny of the expense money was used to bring the players to Los Angeles. Furthermore, I had to use some of my own mor-y, but it was for charity, and I'm glad 1 spent it. Jumping Joe wen. professional during making of arrangements for the game. “I had to obtain his services through his manager in Chicago, 1f he got anything from Hutton it's not my affair. I'm not responsible for Joe any more. The same thing applies to the $1,500 Anderson got. I fail to see why I should be held accountable for anything they ar- ranged between them.” Hutton pointed out Rockne was. not on hand to direct his players in the game. Rockne said he was under a physician's order to remain in bed in a sanitorium at Rochester, Minn., at the time. but he did eve: thing possible by telegraph and tel phone to make the game a success: ful one, . DUNDEE GIVEN BOUT BUT CROWD JEERS Comfortable Margin Is Seen for Harvey in Second Loss to Same Foe. By the Assoctated Press. EW YORK, February 14.—They gave Vince Dundee the decision in Madison Square Garden last night, but Len Harvey, hale Briton, got the cheers. While one of the best crowds of a lean indoor season jeered and booed, Dundee was given his second straight verdict over the British middleweight champion after a 12-round battle which Harvey seemed to have won by a com- fortable margin. Harvey, making all the fight, stabbed Dundes with leits and pounded him with rights over a major portion of the distance and at the end had earned seven rounds in the Associated Press score cafd. Dundee had four and one was even. Dundee Is Courageous. Whatever the justice of the decision, it must be said that Dundee fought a courageous and game battle. Spilied on the floor twice in his fist meeting with Harvey a few weeks ago, Dundee took everything the Britisher had to offer last night. Although Dundee never went down, there were several occasions when it looked as though he might. In the third Harvey nailed him with a right that had the Baltimore Italian in dis- stress. Again in the fifth it took all of Dundee's ring experience to survive a storm of leather. Dundee rallied, but in the eleventh ran into anether crackling right that did him no good. A crowd of 11,500 saw the battle, spectacular at times and scarcely eves dull. Dundee weighed 159 pounds; Harvey, 155. TRAPSHOOTS ANNOUNCED Eighteen Meets Are Sanctioned by Amateur Association.

WHETHER T0 RANK TILDEN 1§ PUZZLE No. 1 Spot Was Planned for Bill When Foreign Play Rule Was Passed. By the Associated Press. EW YORK, February 14.—Al- though he has joined the pro- fessional fold, Big Bill Tilden still casts a big shadow on af- fairs of the United States Lawn Tennis | Association. Tilden and the question of his rank- ing was one of the big questions before the association’s fiftieth annual meeting today. Precedent would dictate that| Big Bill should not be ranked despite| the fact that he did not turn pro until| a few weeks ago. That was the course that was followed in the case of Vin- cent Richards several years ago. Bill Shone Abroad. But the association recently adopted a ruling under which players would be ranked on the basis of their perform-| ances abroad as well as at home. When this regulation was passed it was be-| lieved to have been sponsored with the idea of placing Tilden in the No. 1 po- | sition again despite the fact that John| Hope Doeg won the national singles title with Tilden in the flield. Tilden| played magnificently abroad last vear, | winning the Wimbledon championship | among others. Louis J. Carruthers of New York has been nominated to succeed Louis B. Dailey as president and no opposition was_anticipated. Fitz Eugene Dixon's nomination as second vice president may be opposed by the Middle States Tennis Associa- tion, which has complained against the association's failure to nominate Paul ‘W. Gibbons, Middle States president. CHICAGO OUT TO TRIM NORTHWESTERN FIVE Playing on Own Floor Tonight, Is Eager to Hand Wildcats First Loop Defeat. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO. February 14.—Chicago's Maroons will attempt to slip North- western's Big-Ten-leading basket ball | team a comic valentine tonight in the | | shape of the Wildcats' first Conference | V; defeat. The pair met at Evanston last week, with Northwestern winning by 31 to 16. The Maroons, however, held North- western without, a field goal in the first period, and with the advantage of their own floor—the trick layout in Bartlett Gymnasium—are more than hopeful of creating the major upset of the cam- paign. Indiana and Minnesota, tied in second place with four victories and two de- feats at the halfway point in the race, will be in action tonight. The Hoosiers will go to Lafayette hoping to avenge a beating administered by Purdue last week at Bloomington. Minnesota will seek its second triumph of the cam- paign over Wisconsin at Madison. The fourth game of the schedule will be a battle to determine whether IIli- nois or Iowa will become sole occupant of the cellar. Each has won one game out of six, and appear evenly matched. The Hawkeyes will have whatever ad- vantage its home floor affords. | CENTRAL SWIMMERS LOSE Take Only Three of Eight Events at Baltimore C. C.

Ber- ;'llel Lieb, lanky forward, also may be ost. ‘Those listed to return include Kane, Zola, Waters, Hale, Davis, Fineran, Courtney, Hayes and Bayliss.
