I.A.A.F. Power To Be At Stake In Friday Vote LOS ANGELES, July 28 m The battle to re-Instate Paavo Nurml in time to permit his competition for the fourth time In the Olympics will, in effect, be secondary to the fight within Che International Amateur Athletic Federation over the power of Its council to suspend an athlete or a nation, arbitrarily, for alleged violation of amateur rules. It is scheduled this Friday. Executives of the I. A. A. F., led by J. S. Edstroxn, of Sweden, In seek ing a change In the rules to cover specifically their suspension of Kurmi last April, have run into strong op position, in which the United States now has Joined. This opposition, re gardless of the merits of the Kurmi case Itself, is based on objections to giving blanket powers to the I, A, A. F, "It ts the league of nations all over again," declared Frederick W. Ru- bein, of New York, veteran Ameri can delegate to the federation, TUla country declined to bind Itself to an international group, endangering free dom of Individual decision and ac tion. The amateur athletic union takes the same attitude- In regard to the I. A. A. F." v Defeat of the proposed rules change, Finland's delegates hold, automatic ally will mean the reinstatement of Nurml, inasmuch .as this would leave Finland as the final authority in the case. The Finns already have cleared Paavo and repeatedly demanded his suspension be revoked. GRII TEAMS TO SHIFT LOS ANGELES, July 36 The question of "to shift or not to shift' confronting the western and eastern football teams practicing for their Olympic games demonstration on the night of August 8 has been answered. Both elevens will employ the shift.

Because of the opposition of Glenn (Pop Warner, member of the west ern staff, against the shift In col lege games, the offensive play of the athletes from Stanford, Univer sity of Southern California and Cali fornia had been something of a ques tion. Howard Jones, head of the California; group, always has favored the .shift, and apparently won his point.
