SPORTS. NEW YORKER GETS BRUNDAGE'S POST Convention Approves List of Seven for Ballot on Outstanding Athlete. By the Associated Press. IAMI, Fla., December 8.—Jere- miah T. Mahoney of New York, former all-around ath- lete, one-time justice of the New York State Supreme Court and now chairman of the New York Re- gional Labor Board, was put at the head of a slate, chosen late today, to succeed Avery Brundage of Chicago as president of the Amateur Athletic Union. Agreement on Mahoney apparently was reached after the New York dele- | gation threw its unanimous support to | him and following Brundage's reit- | eration of a determination to step aside after six years in office. | The convention, meanwhile, ap-| proved the list of seven outstanding athletic stars, including two women, | as candidates for the Sullivan Memo- | rial Award, annually voted by the A. A. U. to the individual best exem- | plifying the highest type of sports- | manship and achievement Alphabetically arranged, the list consists of William R. Bonthron of New York, former Princeton track captain and holder of the world 1,500 meter record; Benjamin B. Eastman of San Francisco, holder of several world foot-racing records; Glen Har- den of Louisiana State, world record holder in the 400-meter hurdles and a national champion; Lenore Knight of Pittsburgh, national swimming cham- pion; Jack Medica of Seattle, national swimming champion: Ralph Metcalf of Milwaukee, national sprint cham- pion, and world record holder; and Katherine Rawls of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., swimming champion and record holder. Cunningham Off List. UBJECT to final approval by the convention, either today or to- morrow, this list will be sub- Jject to the Sullivan Award Tribunal for & Nation-wide ballot. In reduc- ing the list of candidates from 10 eligibles, the former number used in the final voting. the A. A. U. omitted the name of Glenn Cunningham of Kansas, 1933 winner of the award in & close contest with Bonthron, and also left off W. Lawson Little of Stanford | University, victor this year in both the American and British amaleur golf | championships. “Members of the Sullivan mbunal will be especially asked this year to disregard any_electioneering or other attempts to influence the final voti said Daniel J. Ferris of New Y national secretary-treasurer of the A A. U. “Complaints were made last year that undue efforts were made in | behalf of some candidates. Full in- | formation on the candidates will be distributed and the A. A. U. feels the | medal should be awarded solely on the | basis of achievement, character and leadership in amateur sport.” Records achieved within the past year by all seven of the athletes nom- inated for the Sullivan Medal were among upwards of 130 approved today by the first general session of the Forty-sixth National A. A. U. conven- tion. Noteworthy among the marks ratified were Bonthrons 1.500-meter outdoor record of 3:38.8, Cunningham'’s outdoor and indoor world mile marks of 4:067 and 4:084 and Eastman's 1:49.8 for the half mile and 800 meters. Marty High Jump King. ALTER MARTY'S high-jump- W ing records, including 6 feet 9's inches for outdoor com- | petition and 6 feet 87 inches, made indoors, were approved and give the | Fresno (Calif.) star possession of all the main honors in this specialty. Jack Torrance of Louisiana State was credited with a new national shot- put record of 55 feet 5 inches, al- though he set a world mark of 57 feet 1 inch in foreign competition. Other national track records ap- proved follow: 60 yards, indoors, 6.2 seconds by Jesse Owens, Ohio State; 1,500-meter walk, indoors, 6:08.8, by Louis Welch, Boston A. A.; broad jump, indoors, 25 feet 3% inches, by Jesse Owens, Ohio State; pole vault, in doors, 14 feet 4 inches, by Keith Brown, Yale; 3; mile, out- doors, 3:02.3, by Gene Venzke, Penn- sylvania; 220-yard low hurdles, out- doors, 23 seconds, by Glenn Hardin, Louisiana State; 880-yard relay, out- doors, 1:24.8, by Southern California. In approving backstroke swimming records achieved by Eleanor Holm Jarrett, Olmypic star, the convention deferred any debate over her amateur status, which has been questioned as| the result of the use of her name and picture in an advertisement for swim- ming suits. It was pointed cut that the particular performance by Mrs. Jarrett was made prior to charges that | she violated the amateur rule. No Jewish Debate. HE pre-convention agreement, ) reached late last night, to side- track further controversy over American acceptance of the invitation to the 1936 Olympics in Germany, ap- parently was inact. Jewish delegates were united in their intention to raise no issue over the Berlin government’s anti-Jewish activities, which caused | condemnatory action a year ago by the A. A. U. It was understood opposition to re- taining J. Lyman Bingham of Chi- cago, as assistant to the president, an office created under the Brundage administration, had been withdrawn in caucus. Some delegates had urged the position be abolished as an econ- omy move, but Brundage persuade® them to reconsider. SHO’ QUINTET IS ACTIVE ‘Washington College Has 16 Tilts, One With Maryland.

Four others who saw action during the last campaign, three of them let- ter winners, are at hand, including Vic Willis, tall center; Roy Yowell, forward or center, and Norwood Soth- oron, guard or forward, who gained | | their insignia, and Alton Rabbitt, for- | ward, who barely missed getting his letter, There are just cight more on the | Old Line roster and the most likely appearing in this group are Bill An- dorka and Charlie Keller, guards, and Al Waters, a forward, all sophomores. RED SCHEELE and Chester Cross, both juniors, out for awhile in a previous season; Roswell Bryant and Ed Daly, sophomores, and Steve Physioc, base ball pitcher, who is & senior and trying the court game for the first time, are the others on the squad. Scheele and Physioc ap- pear to be the most promising. Right now Coach H. Burton Ship- ley, starting his eleventh season as tutor of the Maryland courtmen, re- gards as his tentative first-string combination Buscher and Waters, forwards; Willis, center, and Andorka and Keller, guards. Made up of two juniors and three sophs, this com- bination probably will suffer through inexperience, especially in the early stages of the campaign. Maryland faces a difficult 18-game schedule, and, all in all, it appears that Coach Shipley is in for about the hardest job he has had since he began directing the Terps on the court back in 1923. That was the first season the Old Liners put the court game on a firm basis and Ship lost no time in getting them estab- lished among the leaders in the sport. Has Enviable Record. URING his decade at the head of the Maryland courtmen Shipley’s charges have won 117 games and lost 53 in regular season play, a remarkable record considering the caliber of opposition the Old Liners have faced. It is an average of .63 per cent victories and Shipley will find it difficult to maintain that ratio this season. Right off the bat the Old Liners step into_strong opposition, playing host to Indiana December 20 and Ohio State December 29 in the first games on the Terps' schedule.

T T TR N L TR T How He Became ‘Bones’ Hamilton By the Associated Press. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Calif. —Foot ball fans look at the newspaper photos of chunky Robert (Bones) Hamilton, Stanford's ace right halfback, and wonder how he ever acquired such a nickname. “Bones” finally explained it this way: “When 1 was attending Kiski preparatory school in Pennsyl- vania the fellows on the team called me ‘Ham." Then it went to ‘Ham and Eggs.’ Then somebody dropped the eggs and made it ‘Hambone’ and finally the ‘ham’ was cut off and that left ‘bone,’ so0 they changed it a bit and there you have it.” “Bones” has a reputation for being a good debater, his argu- mentative ability having been clearly brought out this season when, acting as captain for the Indians, he questioned officials closely on their rulings. Coach Tiny Thornhill avers Hamilton's aggressiveness in those matters in- sured Stanford getting an even _break on the field. PING-PONGERS TO PLAY Tourney Will Have Considerable Bearing on Rankings.

Bruising Bears in Fine Trim For Clash With New Y orkers Deculm Pro Foot Bdll Title BY BOB CAVAGNARO (Associated Press Sports Writer.) EW YORK, December 8.—Pro- fessional foot ball took its last long breath of the 1934 season tonight as the gridiron war- riors of the champion Chicago Bears and the New York Giants weighed in for their climatic struggle tomorrow at the Polo Grounds for the National League championship with a crowd of 55,000 in prospect. The bruising Bears, averaging 217 pounds and with a record of 13 con- secutive league victories, including 27-7 and 10-9 triumphs over the Giants, are outstanding favorites at odds rang- ing from3tolto2tol. The Bears outpointed the Giants, 23 to 21, last year in the championship classic, and the probability of the largest crowd to witness a pro game in eight years and the winning team’s share of $800 a player and $500 for each member of the defeated side has engendered a feverish spirit in the rival camps that comes up to the tenseness that holds college elevens before a traditional game. Giants to Miss Stars. UTWEIGHED eight pounds to the man, the Giants, who will be playing for the league title for the first time on their home field, have been practicing two hours daily for the past six days, perfecting their attack which has been weakened consider- ably due to the forced withdrawals of Quarterback Harry Newman and end Red Badgro owing to injuries. Since their two victories in four days over the Detroit Lions last week, the Bears have been taking things easy. They arrived this morning from the Midwest and Coach George Halas put them through a stiff workout on & city playground on the windswept banks of the Hudson. ‘The titled invaders arrived in good health, recovered from the titantic games with the Lions, but minus two i of their star performers, Halfback Beattie Feathers and Guard Joe Kopcha. Halas sent his first team into a far off corner and went into a huddle with his second eleven and notebook containing diagrams of Giant plays. Bears Look for Running Play. FTER a 15-minute talk by Halas, the two teams lined up for dummy scrimmage and it be- came apparent immediately that the Bears are expecting the Giants’ at- tack to feature rushing. Red Grange, the former ‘“galloping ghost of Illinois,” who will be closing out his career as a league player tomorrow, performed in the role of Ken Strong, the Giants’ plunging, passing and kicking halfback, and made surprlxl.ng gains against his mates. “I know we're favored and I guess on the strength of our record that's right,” said Halas, “but we've never beaten the Giants three times in a league season and if you're asking me that’s even too much to hope for. “The Giants have a fine line and some great ball-carriers and there’s one thing we know—they're pretty good bets to score against us at least once.” Nagurski in Trim. RONKO NAGURSKI, 236-pound former Minnesota powerhouse fullback, is the man around whom the Bears’ attack is built. “I feel great,” sald the Bronk, “but I'm afraid those Giants are planning my funeral.” p ‘The pmbnble starting line-ups. o8, lChl Ut ;{M—Ioi Olln “% mpire P W T Japan-U.

EORGETOWN'S basket ball team that opens its season ‘Wednesday night at the Tech High gym against Western Maryland is expected to show strongly, | although the Hoyas are a bit uncer- tain as to the caliber of talent avall- able for some positions. Ed Hargaden, captain; Don Gibeau and Joe Corless are the only thor- | oughly seasoned players on the Blue and Gray's roster. Charley Parcells, who is the leading candidate for cen- ter, did not play basket ball last sea- | son, although he held forth on the | court in his sophomore year. Ben | Zola, former Eastern High luminary, | appears to have a fine chance of being | the other player in the starting line- up against the Green Terrors. This is Zola's first year on the varsity. He | played with the freshmen last Winter, Terrors Are Strong. HE Hoyas expect to find the Terrors a worthy foe. Western Maryland boasted a formidable combination last Winter, one of its few losses being at the hands of Georgetown. The Westminster boys have most of their 1933-34 players back. Georgetown's crack freshman team will open its campaign, engaging Western at 7:30 o'clock in a prelim- inary game. With such former high school standouts on their roster as Buddy Nau, Tommy Nolan, Carroll Shore, Harry Bassin, Mario Gregorio, | Tommy Keating and Karl Nau, in ad- dition to other tossers, the Hoya yearlings expect really to go places.

QUINT OPENS THIS WEEK Go Abroad for Two Games After Season Opener at Home Wednesday. CRDIRON CAREERS OF SIX CURTAILED Faculty Representatives Rule Freshman Year at Oregon Counts. BY CHARLES DUNKLEY, Associated Press Sports Writer. HICAGO, December 8.—Min- nesota, the power house team that could not be stopped on the gridiron as it mowed down opponents like chaff before a cyclone, was thrown for a heavy loss by & group of learned men today. The faculty representatives of the Western Conference refused to grant Minnesota’s request that six of its regular players be permitted three years of competition in varsity foot ball. The six players in question, trans- ferred to Minnesota from Oregon Uni- versity after Dr. C."W. Spears, present head coach at Wisconsin, left the Oregon school to become coach of the Badgers. The six players all played one year of freshman foot ball at Oregon, and, according to Big Ten regulations, that year counts as one year of varsity competition in the Western Conference. Bierman Objects. The intercollegiate foot ball careers of Stanislaud Kostka, Minnesota’s great fullback; William Bevan, star guard, and GeMorge Svendsen, tackle and center; Art Clarkson, reserve half- back; Jay Bevan, center, and Vernon ITH foot ball barely faded out of the Catholic Uni- versity sport picture, the lid-lifter of the 1934-5 basket ball season will be run offl on the Cardinal hardwood next Wednes- day night. The C. U. quintet opens with Marylaxd State Normal for the fourth straight inaugural. Although little has been noted con- cerning the Cardinal basketers so far this season, prospects of a highly suc- cessful team are apparent, with good material available. The Catholic U. tossers have been hard at work for the past two weeks, holding drills daily, with practice games with local independent outfits adding a spark to the workouts. Coach Fod Cotton has selected 10 to make up his varsity squad. Those to represent the school in the 19- game schedule are Capt. Gene Au- gusterfer, Washington; Dick Morris- sey, West Hartford, Conn.: Herman Schmarr, New Britain, Conn., and Joe Yanchulis, Shenandoah, Pa., for- wards; Bernie Lieb, Washington, and Zeke Brown, Williamsport, Pa., cen- wers; Babe Gearty, Minneapolis, Minn; Bill Adamaitis, Worcester, Ma: Sam Pagano, Mount Union, Pa, and Abe Rosenfleld, St. Paul, Minn,, guards. Four Are Letter Men. Of this group Augusterfer, Gearty, Lieb and Rosenfield are letter men. Sophomores on the team are Ada- maitis, Brown, Pagano, Schmarr and Yanchulis. Morrissey is & junior. Although Cotton still is experiment- ing with a regular starting line-up, using various combinations to work out a smooth attack, it appears that he will open the season with Au- gusterfer and Schmarr at the forward positions, Lieb at the tip-off and Babe | Gearty and Rosenfield at the guard | berths. Schmarr, who is the lone sopho- more to break into the starting line- | up, was & sensation on the freshman team last season, scoring 276 points in 15 games. Schmarr takes the place of the departed Capt. Eddie White. Aside from the game with Maryland State this week, the Cards will take to the road, where they are slated to stack up against La Salle College in Philadelphia Friday and St. Thomas, a newcomer to the schedule, in Scran- ton Saturday night. La Salle has beaten the C. U. team on two pre- vious trips to the Quaker City. FALLS CHURCH FIVE ELEVATED IN LOOP Tossers Who Finished Second in Class C State Circuit Are Put in B Division.

Kostka, Bill Bevan, Clarkson and Svendsen had freshman and one year of varsity competition at the Uni- versity of Oregon, and a year on the Minnesota varsity, Oech played on the Montana State College freshman eleven, and on the varsity for a year, Under the Western Conference rules players are limited to three years of athletic competition. If any player attends a school outside the conference which engages other teams in freshman athletics, that vear shall be counted as one of the three years of compemlon permitted in the Big Ten. Coach Bennie Bierman of Gophers, 1934 champions of the Wets):f ern Conference, was upset over the rullng “The rule, as it is reaffirmed. is only unfair, but impossible to Bgf force,” he said. Is Not Discouraged. "RBOORDS as to competition of a high percentage of transfer students are not accurate nor complete. Many colleges of al] sizes ‘lu their freshmen compete in one | sPort or another against other fresh- man teams, but keep no record of line-ups nor substitutions Such games are informal and of little consequence. No records are kept. I venture to guess that there are dozens of transfer athletes in the Big Ten who have had freshman intercol- legiate competition of which there is no record.” Asked about the effect of the ruling on his 1935 team, Bierman sald: “It hurts us heavily. I am not entirely discouraged, however, about our prospects. We'll show them some pretty good foot ball. It means we have to use more unseasoned men, have to develop more slowly, and have to fill vacancies we had not foreseen, but we have some good boys and I am sure they will bear down harder in Tesponse to the emergency and will do all they can to make a winning team. We do not seem to be very successful at winning arguments in star chamber sessions, but maybe we ;uil can win a few on the foot ball eld.” Get More Practice Time. LTHOUGH refusing to change the rule regarding the limited period of competition, the faculty representatives voted to waive for another year the rule prohibiting conference teams from engaging teams not meeting conference require- ments as regards freshman competi- tion. This means that Illinois can go ahead with its proposed game with Southern California and that Michi- gan will be free to schedule Penn and Columbia, where freshmen are per- mitted to play freshmen of other schools. The faculty representatives made another important decision in moving the date of the first foot ball practice sessions from September 15 to Sep- tember 10. This additional five days will enable the coaches to get their players in better condition for early season games, improving their caliber of play and reducing the possibility of injuries. The faculty representatives refused the athletic directors’ requests for 14-game conference schedules in basket ball. They will continue to play 12 games each season. ‘The two-day meeting of the coaches, at which schedules for all sports in 1935 were drawn, will be concluded tomorrow when the basket ball mentors meet to frame their schedule and discuss the rules.
