BITTER FIGHT INDICATED
Suspensions of Three Stars Are
Confirmed and Question, of
I 'Women's Division Debated.
NEW YORK, Nov. 20. (By the As
sociated Press.) The virtual rejec
tion of seven records submitted on
behalf of Charles W. Paddock, Los
Angeles Athletic club sprinter, be
cause of implied faulty timing, and
the decision to leave the question of
controlling women's amateur ath
letic activities to the incoming
board of governors, were the out
standing features of today's meeting
of the Amateur Athletic unin.
Sharp controversy regarding the
acceptance of Paddock's records pre
ceded the final decision of the dele
gates to refer their passage to the
record committee for 1923, which
body will be elected at tomorrow's
session. Jt was fii'it decided to refer
the matter to the incoming board of
governors, but the resolution was
later amended to permit the new
record committee to pass upon the
question.
Acceptance Seems Unlikely.
In view of the fact that the new
commission will not function offi
cially until late in the fall of 1923,
unless special meetings re held, it
was the general opinion of the dele
gates that acceptance of the records
appeared remote.
The records claimed for Paddock
were all made in one race, run at
Santa Barbara, Cal., last July 4.
They included what are claimed as
five world's and two American rec
ords for the distances, rangingfrom
60 to 175 yards. They are as fol
lows: 60 yards, 6 1-5 seconds;. 70
yards. 7 1-10 seconds; 75 yards, 7
3-5 seconds; SO yards, 7 4-5 seconds;
100 yards, 9 3-5 seconds; 125 yards,
12 1-5 seconds; 175 yards, 17 seconds.
Record Meld lmposNihle. .
The d'spute over Paddock's rec
ords hinged on one point, the fact
that only one-fifth of a second
elapsed between the marks for 75
and SO yards. Louis Goldsmith,
chairman of the record committee,
characterized this as a physical im
possibility and as ground for re
jection of all the records, but Lorrin
Andrews, spokesman for the South
ern Pacific association. Insisted they
be accepted. Mr. Andrews said the
records were indorsed by his organ
ization and he read a telegram from
Robert S. Weaver, its president and
former head of the National Ama
teur Athletic union, declaring that
rejection of the records would be re
garded as "an affront" and that a
"fight to the finish would be made
to sustain them.
In sidestepping this issue the dele
gates defeated the recommendation
of its record comm'ttee, which had
voted to reject the records.
Sharp division of opinion de
veloped on the question of con
trolling women's athletics before
final decision was referred to the
incoming board of governors. One
group of delegates favored tak'ng
over direct supervision of feminine
competition, while another group
urged that it be vested in a new
women's athletic federation or
union, which would handle its own
activities, but affiliate with the
Amateur Athletic union to obtain
essential co-operation and co-ordin
at ion.
StiapenHlons Are Confirmed.
Kariier in the day the suspension
of three Chicago athletic stars-
Joie Ray, Frank Loomis and J. O.
Loomis until December 31 for re
ceiving alleged exorbitant expense
money from New York clubs, was
made effective on the recommenda
tion of the registration committee.
It was provided that the suspen
6ion become permanent after that
date unless the funds involved are
repaid as follows; Ray, $100; Frank
Loomis, $20, and J. O. Loomis, $5.
Four other athletes were restored
to good standing after long periods
of ineligibility. They are AJbel I.
Kiviat, former long distance run
ning star; Harry Smith and Frank
Masterson of New York and Gardner
Van Dusen of Spokane, Wash.
William C. Prout of Boston, presi
dent of the Amateur Athletic union,
in an address to the .delegates, re
plied to alleged attacks on the
organization's work during the past
year by declaring the union was
today more strongly intrenched in
public esteem than ever.
President Prout, in pointing out
that American Amateur Union co
operation has been largely respon
sible for the success of American
Olympic teams in the past, pledged
the support, of the organization to
the American Olympic association.
The meeting will close tomorrow
with the election of officers and
various committees for the coming
year and the selection of a club and
city for the staging of the national
junior and senior outdoor champion
ships. Some Record Accepted.

SENTIMENT FOR CALIFORNIA
AS PENN STATE OPPONENT
Bears' Duty Is to Maintain Prestige of Pacific Coast Football in
Intersectional Contest. '
In what was one of the best
games tins season in me opaunns
Junior league the Stephens Athletic
club played the East Side Juniors to
a scoreless tie Sunday afternoon on
the. East Twelfth and East Davis
street grounds.
Stephens played the better game
throughout, but many ff-6ide pen
alties cost its chances to score. In
the first quarter Stephens worked
the ball from its own 40-yard line
to East Side's 6-yard line, only to
be penalized 5 yards and later to
lose the ball on.downs just one foot
from the goal line. Fumbles were
frequent by both teams.
For Stephens the work of Tass
man. Veach and M. Chiotti on the
offensive and C. Chiotti, Lodwig and
King on the defensive was good at
all times.
Barnes at quarter and Lagelski at
left end were the stars for East
Side.
Stephens lost two chances to
score by a drop kick. Once it missed
by three inches.
Holy Xame Juniors Top League.
Holy Name Juniors won their sev
enth straight game and finished on
top of the Spaulding Junior league

" BY L. H. GREGORY.
THE FOOTBALL, season through
out the country now is in Its
final phase. Championships
either have been decided, or the!
next game will determine them.
Most of the varsity teams wind up
their schedules Saturday, though a
few hold over to Thanksgiving day.
Two coast conference games will be
played on that date Oregon against
Washington at Seattle, and . Wash
ington State against Southern Cali
fornia at Pasadena.
Next Saturday's contests on the
coast include the Washington State
Oregon Agricultural college strug
gle in Portland and the California
Stanford game at Palo Alto.
It has not been a particularly
brilliant football season on the coast.
The only really outstanding featuri
has been the California drive to an
other conference championship, the
third for the Bears in three succes
sive years.
The fact is that the Bears seem to
be stronger than ever. They really
outclass their field. As we have re
marked before, California on merit
is the only eleven that should even
be considered for- the Pasadena
game against Penn State on New
Year's day. No fair-minded person
who lias seen California and the
other contenders in action can take
issue with that statement, for it is
so indisputably a fact.
True, it has been formally an
nounced at California that the
Pears are not candidates for the
honor of defending for the west and
prefer to pass the plum around but
the announcement contained a good,
broad loophole. For it concluded
with the statement, in effect, that
the Bears would play only if public
sentiment forced them to.
Well, public sentiment should do
just that little thing. It is well and
good to speak of a "representative"
coast team, and to say this -is not a
"championship" game, but just the
same the prestige of Pacific coast
football will be at stake. It
almost California's duty to play that
game.
Even so, we believe a Bezdek team
is the only team that really has
chance against the present Bear
eleven. No, ordinary fairly good
team playing conventional football

The importance of the Finnesey

the owner of a baseball club power

The New York Giants have turned
over to the Portland Beavers two
more players on the Rube Walberg
deal. One of them is Rachac, a
pitcher, who broke in with Van
couver in the Pacific International
league two years ago. The other
is Lee King, a slugging right-handed
hitting outfielder who played in the
world's series and got by well. Mc
Graw bought King from Toledo
earlier in the season and paid $15,
000 for him, so he must be quite a
ball player.
Rachac is a right-hand pitcher in
whom McGraw has so much con
fidence that he keeps a string on
him. Rachac and King are in ad
dition to Rube Yarrison and Sulli
van, the pitchers turned over to the
Beavers a couple of months before
the season ended through purchase
by McGraw from the Philadelphia
Athletics. Yarrison was going like
a whirlwind with his underhand
ball when the season ended and Sul
livan though not so far developed,
gives every sign of being a comer.
Besides these players, two others
are due before the deal is closed.

ONE OF BEZDEK'S SHORT, QUICK PASSES.
M'
ANY coaches have discarded
the long pass down the field!
in favor of the short, quick
pass that gains usually only a few
yards but is much easier of execu
tion. The Navy coach .Folwell and
the Penn State coach Besdek use
this type of pass and have been very
successful with it.
The left end is a decoy on this
particular pass. ' He goes diagonally
out, his mission being to draw one of
the defensive backs away from the
place where the pass is to be caught
The left tackle does not hold on
this pass. He heads straight for
the spot where the ball is to be
caught In order' to interfere for the
receiver the moment that the pass is
completed.
The center, guards and right
tackle hold for n instant and then
they, too, go down to the point of
reception as. interference.
Care ipus-t be taken that these
linemen going down as interference
do not clutter the defensive back
field to the .point of interfering
with their own receiver.
- They must also know that it is
illegal to interfere with the defen
sive backs until after the pass has
been completed. " .
The right end goes straight down
about seven or eight yards. He is
not .the mas wb.o is goingto receive
the ball, but he affects the defensive
back on that side who is forced to
cover him. This makes it easier for
ttie real receiver to get the ball.
The No. 4 back curves around his
own right and receives the pass
about five yards beyond the line of
scrimmage.
The No. 1 and No. 2 backs protect
the passer.
The No. 3 back receives the ball
from the center and with a short
lobbing pass to the No. i back com
pletes the play.
This pass is easy to execute. The
gain usually is not great, but is
enough to insure a first down. It Is
a good complement of a strong run
ning attack.
The linemen going down as inter
ference, whether they interfere with
the defensive backs or not, make
the interception of the pass extreme
ly difficult.
Some coaches figure the forward
pass to be an aid for their running
attack; others figure the running at
tack as an aid for their passing
game. This pass is for the first
named style.
Besdek of Perin State had the
strongest running attack in. the
country in 1921. He aimed to score
by carrying the ball over and usual
ly did. 'He used this type of pass to
perfection.
so unassumingly and with such en
tire absence of "grandstanding" that
lie rarely breaks into headlines al
though he is one of the few really
outstanding backfield men in the
Pacific northwest this year. The
player we. nominate probably will
be more surprised than anybody
else, for he is about the last fellow
in the world to seek newspaper
credit.
We refer to George King, the
University of Oregon fullback. King,
to begin with, has a football build.
He is one of those solid, stocky fel
lows, built from his ankles up, rel
atively short, with big bones and
strong muscles, that a coach auto
matically picks for the battering
ram post of fullback. He has the
build, but, more important yet,
knows how to use it. He hits a
line .beautifully and. with such a
powerful leg drive to assist his
plunge that he often plows a hole
for himself when there was no hole.
Once in that Oregon-O. A. C. game
Saturday we saw him nailed on an
off-tackle buck by three men yet
those sturdy legs kept digging in
and pushing so powerfully that, un
aided, he shoved all three of them
back for two or three more yards.
He was and is just about half the
Oregon attacking power on straight
football. He is a good interference
runner, too, and as secondary de
fense man is sure death on a run
ner who penetrates the first line.
He played a grand defensive game
Saturday, and he always does.
King can stand enormous pun
ishment . without showing it. He
never gets hurt. In his three years
of varsity football ice don't recall
tnat ne ever even has had time
taken out for him--except possibly
to have some sawdjjst wiped out of
ma vye ana ne never nas oeen re
moved from a game because of in
jury. A real honest-to-goodn'ess
fullback that's George King.
, ....
It used to be that the' repre
sentative of one university, scout
ing a rival's football game to get
pointers on its style of play to use
for a coming game against the
rival's team, had to make himself,
pretty scarce. He wasn't welcome'
and though he was considered a
necessary nuisance, no favors were
extended to him.
It's different now. For example,
Gus Welch, the Washington' State
coach, was at Corvallis Saturday to
get a line on the O. A. C. team,
which Washington state plays in
Portland next Saturday. First
thing Gus did was to call on Dick
Rutherford, the Aggie coach, to let
him know he was there. Ruther
ford wasn't or.e whit behind Welch
in courtesy. ' .
"Why, hello, Gus," said Ruther
ford. "Glad to see you. Have you
a good seat? Wait a moment
how'd you like to sit in the press
box up on the roof where you can
get the best view? I'll fix it for
you."
And-Rutherford did. Through his
courtesy Welch' not only got a
grandstand view of his rival's team,
but better yet, a birdseye view.
where he could see every play as
if it were diagrammed on paper. Had
Rutherford wanted to be petty and
small he could have made Gus feel
like an intruder and shunted him
off to standing room on the side
lines. Instead he put him in the
best possible vantage point for
seeing the game and studying the
O. A. C. style of play. That was
real sportsmanship.
Rud Brown, the Oregon right end,
was badly injured in the O.A. C.
game. He is out for the season,
just when Oregon needs him most
for its big game against Washing
ton on Thanksgiving day.
Brown was clipped from behind
on a play and the shock of the col
lision, for which he was not set,
wrenched his right knee in such a
way as to tear the cartilage loose.
The injury is worse than a disloca
tion. His leg from the ankle to the
hip has been put in a plaster cast
and he will be in bed and in that
cast at least for weeks, Brown is
a corking end and in three years
of varsity football it was his first
injury.
This will leave Oregon without
an experienced . end against Wash
ington. Spear at the left wing
played a fine game Saturday, but
this is his first season. Terry
Johnson, a big young fellow of
promise, but green as yet, will have
to fill Brown's shoes, and that is
a hard assignment for any man.
fought quite a bit around San Fran
Cisco bay and is rated as a mixer
of ability. His last fight' was with
Vasquez, a Mexican. Nunes got a
decision over Vasquez in 15 rounds
at Juarez about four months ago.
Smith was in the Australian air
service during the war. He has had
more than 200 fights since he start
ed his ring career a dozen or more
years ago. Macke and Wing are al
ready well known in and about
Portland, having fought here fre
quently. Frank Kendall, manager at Mil
waukie, has announced an innova
tion for the next show of the Mil
waukee boxing commission, Novem
ber 28. . He will cut prices in two.
The top price will be $1.50 instead
of $3 and the bottom price will be
50 cents instead of $1.
"I believe admittance prices have
been too high, considering the aver
age cards shown," said Kendall,
"and te reduction ought to permit
of many more persons being able to
afford a visit to the boxing arena.
"We will match Greb nt Milwau

King County Court Grants Man
ager Right to Expel Undesir
able Patrons; Gambling Hit.
OLYMFIA, Wash., Nov. 20. (Spe-cial.)-The
owner of a baseball park
is engaged in a private business and
in the absence of a specific statute
he may control it as he will, the su
preme court held today in affirming
the superior court of King county in
dismissal by non-sui of an action
brought by James L. Finnesey
against the Seattle baseball club and
W. H. Klepper and James R. Boldt
as officers of the club. Finnesey
sought damages for alleged unlaw
ful ejection from the Seattle base
ball park and asked an injunction to
prevent interference with his at
tendance at baseball games. Denial
of the injunction also is affirmed.
The owners of a ball park are not
bound by the rules which relate to
common carriers or by the civil
rights statute which has been held
to rule admittance to theaters, the
court held. The admission ticket to
a baseball park is a mere license,
revokable at the will of the pro
prietor, even after the holder has
entered the park and taken the seat
described on the ticket. The money
which Finnesey paid for his ticket
had been returned to him and that
was the only item of damage re
coverable, the opinion said.
TheFinnesey case attracted wide
attention at the time the cohtro
versy started, he being barred from
the Seattle park in the fall of 1919
because of alleged gambling on
games and plays - and because he
entertained players at his home
where liquor was served. By order
of President McCarthy of the Pa-
