Already Johnny has shown the

The fthift will not bo an Issue, and

of Coach nob Huppko of the Uni

Absecon, X. J., today to attend the

mittee. "Coaches feel generally that the
present rule satisfactorily governs
the shift," Zuppko, who is a mem
bei- of the advisory committee, said,
"and most of them think the rules
should bo loft alone.
"Tho committee on rules of the
Coachcri' association based its re
port to tho annuel meeting on a
questionnaire sent to conches Ben-
era My.
"One hundred eighty-two favor
ed retention of -the point after
touchdown, while 8il favored aban
doning It. More than 200 coaches
favored removing the power of of
ficials to nward or tako away n
point after touchdown for Infrac
tion of rules, nnd that tho penalty
provided should bo enforced'. A
largo majority also think tho of

ilege of running with a recovered

A report from the state k'1"1-
commission by (i. M. Simpson, su
perintendent of game farms, re
veals that a total of 47,77(1 game
birds of all kinds were released
In Oregon during 1H20-30, with
the ChlneHo ring-neck pheasant
predominating. Mr. Simpson re-.
ports that national recognition ha
been accorded the Hungarian par
tridge In Oregon, one of tho few
males to enjoy an open season on
this game bird. The game farms
now havo tho fourth generation of
Hungarian partridge bred In cap
tivity.
Over R0 Iteevos pheasants wcro
llborated In Heptember of last
year In tho Oregon Caves region.
Tho birds originally camo from
the Himalaya mountains and arc
expected to become well estab
lished In this nntional monument.
Nearly 280 golden pheasants were
released In different timbered sec
tions of OroHon during the past
year. Mr. Simpson reports tho
falifomia valley quail, or plumed
partridge, while not such a na
tional favorito as tho bob-white,
Is regarded as a much better
gamo bird. It Is easily propa
gated In captivity and is gaining
rapidly in many sect Ions of the
state. Over 770 wild turkeyn were
liberated tho past two years and
reports of their progress are prom
ising, especially In those parts re
mote from habitation.
'Tho tato game farms are ca
pable of producing several times
more gamo birds than can bo hold
at tho farms," reports Mr. Simp
son. "To aid In tho distribution
of such surplus, better results are
ohtahu-d by placing day-old
pheasants in brood coops in suit
able localities, either In charge
of a caretaker or with a roup on-
slblo farmer to provide for them
until weaning oro than by tho
usual method or Indiscriminate
distribution of pheasant eggs. Fro
ttuently volunteer caretakers have
raised a fair percentage of the
young birds, natural food being
most plentiful at this time of the
year, tho young birds would al
most raise themselves wero H not
for tho Inroads of the el ray cat.
hawks, owts and other predators.
There Is one objection, and a valid
one. to this method of propaga
tion and that Is the young birds
aro released prior to the open
season, unless reared on a game
refuge; but creating small so
called gamo refuges, with no pro
vision for destroying tho rapidly
increasing natural enemies of the
pheaHants, In just providing such
enemies with another meal ticket."
Mr, Simpson's report goes on
to say that If the female pheas
ants wore protected by law. and
hunters obeyed that law, pheas
ants cot i Id be released at any
lime and any place. Pheasants
being decidedly polygamous, an
Indefinite, open season might be
enjoyed on males only, and still
enough would remain to perpetu
ate their kind. That a greater
number of pheasants may be held

over the winter or at least until
after the close of the hunting

of holding pens has long been
advocnted, but stow in realization.
It Is not practical to hold birds
over the. winter in the same pens

birds tho following season, but
young birds at weaning ago placed
in fresh holding pens could be
thinned out practically 0 per

Fourth in Special 1000
Yard Event Foot Injury
Slows Stride.
By Herbert W. Barker
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
NEWARK, N. J., Feb. 10. (P)
Tho American debut of Paul
Keller, French 800-meter champ
ion, has proved no more of a suc
cess than that of his compatriot,
Seraphin Martin' world's record
holder at the same distance.
Keller, with no previous exper
ience In running- indoors or on
an unbanked track, finished no
better than fourth In a special
1,000 yards event in the Seton Hull
college game here last night.
Lacking knowledge of how to
handle himself on tho turns where
ho was badly jostled and handi
capped in addition by an Injury
to his right foot, the Frenchman
never was a contender In tho race
which Phil Edwards, flying negro
star from Hamilton, Ont., won in
the faHt tim of 2:17 0-10. Frank
Nordell, New York university
freshman, was second and Charlie
Thompson of New York, third.
In an early jam the nail on
the big toe of Keller's right foot
was ripped off and the French
man was limping badly at the fin
ish. The injury was painful but
not serious and Keller will go
through with the balance of his
engagements In this country.
TO SAMS VALLEY
SAMS VALLEY, Ore., Feb. 10.
(.Special With nnother victory
for the Sams Valley boys' and
girls' basketball teams in their
contest with Butte Falls last Tues
day night, the teams were sailing
happily along towards the district
championship until Friday night
when the boys met their Water
loo nt Jacksonville when that
team defeated them 31 to 20.
This Is the first loss for Sams
Valley and ono least expected. It
may havo been duo to over con
fidence'or somebody leaving their
rabbit's foot at home, however
tho team was considerably lot
down over tho defeat as well as
many of our basketball fans.
Tho girls' game wes also a one
sided affair but a victory for the
locals, 34 to 13, making tho firth
victory for tho girls with no loss.

Ritter is large and appears to
have possibilities as a wrestler, but
he lacks speed and skill to place
him in the class of professional
matmen. However, an intensive
training program may do much
for the young Gold Hill hopeful.
Tho match was interesting to
watch and probably would have
been over sooner had It not been
for Hitter's excessive weight, giv
