SCHEDULE COMPLETED
(By Associated Press)
-NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-To insure
adequate accoramodations for the
American delegation to the 1928 Olym-
pic at Amsterdam, the ' American!
Olympic committee will charter the
United States liner lPresident Rloose-
velt for a 42day period starting July
11, when the official party, will sail
from New York.
The ninth Olympic will begin July
28 and continue until Aug. 12. During
all this time the 250 members of the
American team willl make their home
aboard ship. In this way the committee
hopes that many of the difficulties en-
countered' en route to and at the 1924
games at Colombes, France, may be
avoided.
While the United States representa-
tion has been cut down by about 100
from that of 1924, the nation will be
entered in practically all the events.
The committee has decided to remain
out of rifle, trap and revolver shoot-
ing and rugby. This accounts for sav-
ing about 50 men. Four track events
have been dropped from. the official
program, viz: The 3,000-meters team
race, 10,000-metres wxaUk, cros-coun-
try and the pentathlon.
Entries Are Limited.
The maximum number of entries
from each nation in each event is fixed
by the international. federation, and in
individual events four competitors
from each nation- are allowed, with
one team to each nation in team
events.
For the first time in history, Ameri-
can women will take a major part in
the Olympics. Among the track and
field, events in which they will par-
ticipate are the 100 and 806-meters,
running high jump, discus throw, 400-
metres relay, gymnastics and fencing.
Tentative plans for America's part
in the games were revealed by the ex-
ecutive committee of the American
Olympic committee, at a meeting with
the new president, Maj.-Gen. Douglas
MacArthur, of Baltimore, in charge.
John J. Raskob, treasurer of the Gen-
eral Motors Corporation, was elected
treasurer of the committee, succeeding
Julius H. Barnves
P ?lan Ytlicft llriv.
A banquet, lpei to sporting writers
throughout the United States, is plan-
ned in New York for Friday, Novem-
ber 25, the day before the Army-Navy
game. Frederick W,. Rubien, secretary
ofathercommittee, explainedsthat this
gathering would miark the start of 'a
big drive to enlist the support of news-
papers over the counry in the Oylm-
pics.

committee, 13 wei'eresent at the
meeting. They w'': A. C. Gilbert, of

way of regaining the heavyweight
championship-is all Jack Dempsey
believes can keep him from punenmlmr
his way back to the title.
Flowing over with good spirit, play-
ful, and anxious to consider his fruit-'
less quest at Gene Tunney's crown as'
"Just one of the breaks of the game,"
Jack closed the door today to further
echoes of the six shots he slammed in-
to the champion's head in the seventh
round of the Soldier's Field warfare,
shots that have reverberated around
the fistic world ever since in the heat
of the "long count" controversy,
The former ruler of the fistic woril,
still bearing the scars of Tunney's
victory, made it plain that he was "no
squawker," never had been a "squawk-
er," and would end his fighting car-
eer "giving doze credit every time to
any man who can lick me." Jack
also spiked reports that trouble had
arisen between him and Leo P. Flynn,
his manager, over vociferous protests
of Tunney's victory, that had come
from Dempsey's camp ever since the
battle on Soldiers' Field last Tht-s-
day night.
Referring briefly to the fight. Jack
said he was dazed only in the eighth
round, when Gene aught him off
balance and dumped into the canv.ss
with a right to the chin. He said he
was not told the referee would wait
until he got into a neutral corner be-
fore counting the ten for a knockdown.
Jack added that if he had known Tun-
ney would demonstrate such marvel-
ous recuperative powers after the
knockdown in the seventh, he woald
have fought diferently, smashing in
the moment Gene got to his feet, ra'h-
er than waiting for an opening and a
single finishing punch..
PARIS.-Johnny Cuthbert, feather-
weight champion of England, knocked
out Humery, French contender in the
seventh round.

IOWA CITY, Sept. 28.-If the Uni-
versity of Iowa football team is to win
I3ig Ten games this fall, according to
Coach Burton A. Ingwersen, a back-
field with a punch must be developed.
As Saturday's opening game with
Monniouth approaches, the Hawkeye
coacling staff is spending much time
with the backfield. However, they are
not overlooking the forward wall
which has appeared strong but not as
coordinated as the mentors would like.
. Material for a scoring backfield is
present, the coaches believe, if the
men will develop under intensive in-
stiuction. Tlhe Hawkeyes are hoping
that "Bab" Cuhel, the track man, will
be a big threat in the offense this fall.
Now he appears to be an able receiver
of passes hurled by Bill Glassgow, the
stocky new quarterback.
Skelley Available.
Armil, a letter man, has been play-
ing at the other halfback post and
since Myers, 190-pound sophomore,
has been shifted to end, Schmidt, an-
other veteran, appears as fullback.
When he fully recovers from an ill-
ness, Skelley will make a strong fight
for quarterback. He is a letter man.
Bunn, Smith, Sadler, Hagerty and a
few others are still in the running for
regular positions. These men are only
slightly below first team caliber now
and may step forward at any time be-
fore the Conference season opens with
Ohio State, October 8.
The tackle situation now is domi-
nated by Captain Nelson, an all-Ameri-
can selection of last season, and Wes-
tra, a sophomore recruit.
Chattertou At Guard.
And the veteran-sophomore combi-
nation holds forth at the guard posts,
too. Even though he weighs some 240
pounds and is built like a barrel,
Chatterton, an "I" man, is filling one
job. At the other is Roberts, a hard-
playing sophomore. Brown, a junior,
appears to have distanced all rivals
for the pivot position.
In recent scrimmages, a pair of for-
mer backfield men have been playing
the end positions. Grimn was a good
blocking half last fall and now he is
developing fast as an end. Myers, the
strong sophomore, is absorbing all the
end lore he can sincekbeing moved
from fullback last week.

Vie Aldridge.
One of the Pittsburgh Pirates star
pitchers whose consistent work during
the past few weeks has greatly aided
his team in the close race for the Na-'
tional League flag.
Aldridge was acquired from the Chi-
cago Cubs several seasons ago and
aided his team materially in whining
the World's championship in 1925,
when he defeated the Senators twice.
He won the first and fifth contests of
the series but was knocked out of the
box in the seventh and deciding game
of the 1925 baseball classic.
Freshmen Train For
Cross-Countrv Race
Ten freshmen have signed up for the
freshman cross country run, .wiich
will be held the last Saturday of the
season, - an d are being put
through a two-mile limbering-up jaunt
down the Boulevard each day oy
Coaches Beals and Knowles. Coach
A. T. Beals is te head coach for the
freshmen and Victor C. Knowles, a
new man, has been assigned by Coach
Stephen Farrell as his assistant.
During the remainder of the week
the yearlings will run two miles every
day. Next week the "trek" will be
lengthened and starting a week from
next Saturday, a, competative run will
be held every Saturday morning at 11
o'clock.
Thisyear several cups are being of-
fered besides the six numerals. Fresh-
men who have signed up for the train-
ing are: E.Reinig, D. Bevis, M. Of-
fen, R. Crane, Jr., B. Fell, E. Closter,
W. Shaughnessy, L. G. Blair, A.
Gents and R. Surridge.

to action and scored a touchdown.
The third and winning score came on
a blocked kick, being of a "fluky"
nature.
Wesleyan uncovered "absolutely
nothing," according to Courtwri t
and acted as if the Wilmington game
meant little to them. Perhaps five or
six regulars saw little or no service'u
that game, Courtwright said, as a win
over or good showing against the
Wolverines is the main aim of the
Delaware school at present.
The plays used by Wesleyan aganst
Wilmington were only the most ele-
mental, while not tricks or unusual
pass plays were shown at any time.
Coach George Guthier is admittedly
a smart mentor, and, according to
Ohio authorities, plans to spring a
surprise on Michigan.
Although the Scarlet and Jet ends
only weight about 170 pounds, the
rest of the line is rather heavy, in-
cldling two 220 pound men. The
guards and tackles average a full 190
pounds and the center is also about
this weight. In the backfield, Coach
Gauthier can assemble a quartet
averaging better than 170 pounds.:
