' NEW YORK, March 17
After eavesdropping at a meet
ing of the New York track
writers, who were discussing
with considerable vigor the
plans for their navy relief bene
fit track meet at the .coliseum
next week, this department has
arrived at the' conclusion that
such promotions may help sports
but they're bad for sports writ
ing . As a coach pointed out,
normally the writers ' would
think it their duty to pan a coach
who let boys like Less MacMit
ehell and Gil Dodds shoot for a
world record here on Wednes
day and then run again at Cleve
land Friday. But their inclina
tion -will be to soft-pedal such
Criticism, when the writers them
selves are responsible for one
meet; . .'. You'll remember the
local basketball , writers got out
from, under the - Metropolitan
invitation . tournament when
they found they were in danger
of . becoming promoters instead
of writers.,

5000-Perton Limitation -May
Shut Down Football
PULLMAN, Wash., March 17
UP) The Pacific .Coast confer
ence may scrap its 1842 football
schedule because of the 5000
limitation on crowds in the Pa
cific coast defense area. Earl V.
Foster, graduate manager of
Washington State college, said,
One of the first pieces of bus
iness when the spring confer
ence meeting is held at Port
land next weekend, he said,
will be the seeking of clarifica
tion of the rule.
"We've all heard of this rule,"
he explained, "but so far as I
know no one had received offi
cial notification. ' Next week
end, therefore, we'll, attempt to
find out the exact status of the
schools with relation to the site
of the crowds . that can be as
sembled for sports contests
like for instance, our football
games." ...
If the limitation is held to be
in effect, he said, the - "big
games" of the year, which an
nually attract larger gates prob
ibly will be abandoned.
Conference members, he add
ed, "may find it. more feasible to
limit activity too close to home."
Besides the crowd limitation
ruling and its possible effect on
the schedules, the freshman rule
will again come up for discus
sion, he said.
Foster's statement brought
varied reaction.
Edwin N. Atherton, commis
sioner of the conference,1 said he
thought Foster "undoubtedly is
talking for himself and not for
the conference," and declared
the loop had taken no action to
ward abandoning its football
schedule "and we will take none
until advised to do so by mili
tary authorities."
Graduate Manager Ken
Priestly of the University of
California commented: "I think
that Earl's statement is a bit
premature.. We hope to cover
all angles of the situation at this
(conference) meeting, though."
Al Masters, Stanford graduate
manager, said he thought Foster
was "just guessing."
"We've ' known for quite a
while that we may -not be able
to play football this fall," he
said. "All we can do now is get
our regular schedule ready and
hope that we will be able to go
through with it. We can do noth
ing right now, nor can anybody
else."
Sam Barry, Southern Califor
nia coach, started some conjec
ture with the statement a few
days ago that USC's two big in
tersections! games this year
would be played in the east, in
stead of in the Los. Angeles coli
seum, as originally scheduled.
PITTSBURGH . Carnegie
Tech cheer-leaders led a yell for
Referee Walt Ketchell at a bas

Atherton's
War Curbs
SAN FRANCISCO, March 17
UP) The status of Edwin N.
Atherton, commissioner of the
Pacific coast conference, and the
possibility of the organization
splitting into northern and south
ern divisions ..on account of the
war, were discussed by football
fans today.
Atherton's principal duty has
been to stop all proselyting and
there were rumors that the con
ference might find some cheaper
way of handling Its affairs. 'Ath
erton receives $29,000 a year.
'Twenty-five thousand dollars
is a lot of money to take from
gate receipts that' are' certain to
be cut drastically if the 9000 war
attendance rules remains," one
commentator said.- "
. The conference meets at Port
land this weekend with the first
order of business the schedule
for 1942. ' '
One coach commented that the
only solution in war. time would
be to split the conference. Should
this be done, the northern games
would be between Oregon State,
Oregon, Washington, Washington-
State, Idaho and Montana.,
In the southern division,

The Cliftons' first foe Is the

Seattle gets away against Den

The first team to reach to
