SPORTS. < GOLFERS ANXIOUS FOR SUCH AGTION Officials Also Likely to Raise | Qualifying Total in Ama- | teur to 200. By the Associated Press. EW YORK, March 6.—Keeping abreast of the continually growing interest and popu- larity in the sport, the United States Golf Association expects to in- crease the number of sectional quali- fying districts for the open and ama- teur championships and probably raise the qualifying quota for the amateur to 200. John G. Jackson, vice president of | the association and chairman of the} Championship Committee, disclosed | today that his committee had these matters under consideration and prob- | ably will reach a decision within the | next two weeks. 1 Since 1931, when the sectional| qualifying system was installed, there have been complaints from State as- sociations whose golfers were required to take the medal-play tests in dis- tricts in which title aspirants from several other States were competing. Last year more than 1,000 golfers played in the amateur championship qualifying rounds in 25 districts, while almost as many played in the open qualifying rounds in 22 sections. May Bar Outsiders. HE U. S. G. A. is seriously con- sidering increasing the number of qualifying districts, and, in the case of key centers, such as Penn- sylvania, Massachusetts, Illinois and the metropolitan district, embracing New York and New Jersey, permit them to have qualifying tests with outsiders barred. The association ultimately may reach the point where Illinois, for ex- | ample, will have its own district with- out including portions of Indiana and Wisconsin, as now is the case.

In a brace of games which may have a bearing on the unlimited fight the Wesley Heights Eagles, composed of American University players, will engage the Rinaldi Tailors at 8:30 o'clock. While American University did not fare so well on the court this season the Eagles are expected to show an improved brand of ball in the tournament. Following this tilt the strong Jewish Community Center five will tackle Fort Washington in another unlimited engagement. The J. C. C. team is rated among the city’s best. Opening the three-game program at 7:30 o'clock, Twin Oaks and Ehrlich Poultry will oppose in a 145-pound en- gagement. OUNT VERNON, First Baptist and the Maryland A.

AYTONA BEACH, Fla,, March 6.—Abashed, but feeling very good inside about a lot of things, Sir Malcolm Camp- bell waited today for his 300-mile-an- hour beach, firm in the hands of Lady Campbell and certain for the first time that public opinion says he mustn't endanger his life any more.

BY WALTER R. McCALLUM.

But Rolard brings the word that the team on which the American and | British amateur titleholder, W. Law- son Little, jr., is almost certain to be the leading aggregation in the team title chase. The Stenford golf team, Roland avers, comes fairly close to being the perfect combination, and probably can whip any college outfit in the land. Furthermore, Little, good as he is, raies a spot at No. 3 and despite the best etforts of the na- tional ameteur king, he hasn’t been able to go higher on the Stanford team.

NAVY CREWS ON WATER Varsity to Be Stronger Than Last Season. ANNAPOLIS. Md., March 6.—Navy crews, including varsity, junior var- sity, plebe and 150-pound, were on the water yesterday and Coach Charles Walsh is hoping that the weather will permit re€gular out-of- door work from now on. Clark Hood, varsity captain, who rowed at No. 7 last season, is holding cdown the stroke job this year, with Dick Grey, who stroked the junior varsity to second place at Poughkeep- sie, last year, at No. 7. The crew probably will be a little heavier than last and considerably stronger. SCHMELING, HAMAS NEARING TOP FORM German Is Spurred by Chance to Square Defeat Dealt by Yank Year Ago.

HICAGO, March 6.—Sprinters, in quality and quantity long overdue, will charge into Big Ten championship track com- | petition next Saturday night. | Since those memorable duels be- | tween George Simpson of Ohio State | and Eddie Tolan, Michigan’s colored flyer, first-rate sprinters have been lacking in the Big Ten. The twenty- fifth annual Western Conference in- door meet this week, however, prom- ises a rivalry at least as brilliant— with Ohio State's sensational Jesse Owens, Jimmy Owen of Iowa and Sam Stoller of Michigan as the prin- cipals. Owens, the Buckeye colored star, already famous through his exploits on Eastern tracks, will be the man they'll be trying to beat, but Owen, & former national prep champion, and Stoller, who has displaced big Willis Ward as Michigan's No. 1 sprinter, will be around to see that he doesn’t loaf. New Record Likely. All of them have equaled the con- ference record of 6.2 seconds for 60 yards, and it is possible that a new mark will come out of their battle Saturday night. Other records appear safe enough, but none of the defending individ- ual champions is more than an even bet to repeat. Ward, Michigan’s tall colored athlete, who led the Wolver- ines to the team title last year with victories in the dash, high hurdles and high jump, is favored again only in the hurdles. Owens, Owen and Stoller all figure to beat him in the sprint. Mel Walker, another Ohio State colored sophomore, has bettered many of Ward’s 1935 performances in the high jump, and has a best mark of 6 feet 4 inches. Indiana has come up with another middle-distance star, Sophomore Don Lash, who is expected to take the 2-mile championship away from Neree Alix, tiny runner. Unless Bill Freimuth, 6-foot-6-inch Minnesota weight tosser, shows sud- den improvement, he may lose shot- put honors to Jay Berwanger, Chica- go's all-around star. ‘Wolverines May Repeat.

FROM THE BY JOHN EW YORK, March 6.— M. Jacques Curley, the great antiquarian, was poring over his charts and records of Greece and ancient Egypt when your correspondent entered the room. “Ah, there,” said M. Curley affably. He produced a giant magnifying glass and squinted through it at a manu- script on his desk. “This palimipsest,” said M. Curley, “was excavated, at great expense and loss to human life, from the cata- combs of Beni-Hassan in Egypt. It goes to prove what I always have said, that the modern science of ras- sling is older than we think.” This document was drawn up in 3000 B.C., which means that it is 5,000 years old. “This priceless parchment,” con- tinued M. Curley, “illustrates nearly every rassling hold known to man. Here we 1ind the flying mare, the air- plane spin, the scissors, the Japanese armlock, the half-nelson, the toe hold, the crotch hold, the flying tackle— in fact, everything. All this was known to man 5,000 years ago.” Had Word for Dishonesty. .
