N0 COMPETITION " BEFORE OLYMPICS K. A. U. Restricts International Athletics for All Members Md.. Nov. 16 @P— Adoption of a policy restricting in- ternational competition prior to. the 1928 Olympic games, reelection of Murray Hulbert of New York for a third term as president, selection of cither Cincinnati or Buffalo as the 1927 convention site were the slate for the closing ons of the Amateur Athletic Union's conven- tion today. The delegates will move to Washington tomorr joining with other representatives of other sports-governing bodies for the quadriennial meeting of the Amyrican Olympic ‘association. Baltimore, T ur years ago, with preparations | for/ the 1924 Olympics under way, | the A. A. U. barred foreign compe tition by athletes under its ju diction and at the same time di couraged invasion of talent other countrics. Decision for against a similar policy faced the convention today i acting upon proposals for visits here this win- ter by such foreign sters as Paavo Nurmi, Edwin Wide and Dr. Otto Pel: as well as invitations for ex- hibitions by Ame: hletes next vear in-New Zeals Japan, South | Africa, and the Seandinavian na- tion or from , Opposition to further visits hers by foreign athletes also has devel- oped as a result of which and the invasion of Charley Hoff, Norwegian pole vaulter, this year. Nurmi's financial affairs were under fire for some time, although the Finn was cleared of all charges against him. Hoff has turned pro- fessional and rued the A. A. U, for damages as an outgrowth of hav- ing his financial arrangements ques- tioned and being declared ineligible for amateur competition, One result of the Hoff case has been the tabling of official recogni- tion of all of the sensational pole vault records he ablished last winter before his amateur status questioned. This was done by the convention in spite of commit- tee recommendation for the accept- ance of the Norwegian's best mark of 13 feet, 8 1-2 Inches, made at Chicago. The A. A. U, has added 159 Amer- ican record performances to the hooks out of a total of 217 claims for records made in track and fleld as well as swimming during the past year. These are featured by the recognition of two mnew sprint marks—9 5-10 for 100 yards by Charley Paddock of Pasadena, Cal., and 20 5-19 seconds for 220 vards by Roland Locke of the University of Nebraska. The fact that tenth- second watches, used in both fn- are now regarded interna- fnaccurato has put both in a-peculiar position, how- Phey will ke ranked as Amer- standards but probably not recognized universally.

For of the two elevens fighting it out in the stretch of the title race, Michigan has the harder final test because of a schedule irregularity that makes Minnesota a foe for the second time of the season. Northwestern, on the other hand, having had two easy victorles over dndiana has benefited by the twist and is a decided favorite to down Towa while the Wolverines brace against Minnesota's assault. Six weeks ago the two games looked like good fortune for Michi- gan, just after a 20 to 0 victory in the first of the series. The fall has shown that defeat to be the turn- ing point in Minnesota's fortunes, however, and the Gophers now loom {in Michigan's path after an omin- ous 81 to 0 conquest of Butler. Both Yost and Spears labored to- day with teams In perfect condition. At Michigan the old air machine was given a preliminary running over and at Minnesota Spears plung- ed Into the series of new plays glv- en his team last week but not, as Michigan knows, used in the crush- ing victory over the Hoosier eleven. Northwestern turned to the finale with Towa refreshed by a day's va- cation ordered by Thistelwaite in celebration of the conquest of Chi- cago, polishing up the same attack that humbled the Purple’s ancient rivals. Stagg, laboring against the effects of another defeat for Chicago, marshalled his forces with an ad- mitted chance of turning back Wis- consin in the remewal of their old warfare, Illinois is grooming the drop- Kkicking Forcty Peters and his mates to catch Ohio State after the Michizan game and rise above the Buckeyes for a possible second rank in the Big Ten standing. Indiana and Purdue are grooming for the fifth of the games which ring down the season’s curtain = with every team in action.
