Factions Placated In Austrian Cabinet By Three Leaders
Vienna, May 20. (UP) The cabins tonight gave final form to a law under which Austria would have three national leaders.
Chancellor Kurt Schussnig, unofficial dictator, would become national leader of the Fatherland front, and Vice-Chancellor Edward Baar von Vaerwels national commander of the front militia.
Prince Ernest von Stubenberg, who acted as de-dictator last week, would continue as national sports leader and also head of the Motherhood Protective Association. All would have the title of national leader, but Schussen would remain the actual supreme head of the government.

Motion To Ajourn Made in Midst of Eligibility Discussion; Attempt To Stop Action
Rush for Door Halted by Dearborn At Council Meeting
A rush for the doors following a motion to adjourn nearly halted the meeting of the Men's Student Council last night.
In the middle of discussion of a Pachacamac proposal to declare John Murray and Henry Parker, PSG.L's ineligible, President John Phillips accepted a motion to adjourn. The vote was about equally divided, however, and brawny Earl Darrear interposed his sturdy bulk in the doorless room from leaving the room until the eligibility question had been decided. The meeting was the scene of violent arguments in which the P.S.G.L majority forced Pres. John Phillips to reverse his decision to accept the report of the commission of Parker and Murray ineligible for office on the council. P.S.G.L however retained a majority control of the council as the re-
FSGL however retained a majority control of the council as the result of the ultimate decision of the council.
The argument was fought during the meeting along party lines with Phil Rapp, P.S.G.L. floor leader, leading the drive to retain the two men of his party. The committee on eligibility headed by Hubert Anderson reported that Mr. Murray did not need Parker could not meet the requirements of three semesters completed in the school from which he was elected before his election. Their report in the case of Murray and that he must have 70 hours in the school in which he is enrolled in order to be eligible for the two-year office. Murray is enrolled for pre-law, but does not

Parker had completed two years of junior college work before enrolling in the University last fall. Phil Raup produced an old copy of the M.S.C. constitution in which was contained an amendment which would make Parker eligible. Murray said that from his freshman year he had been enrolled as a pre-law and Raup appealed to the council to consider the intent of the constitution.
Immediately following the recommendation of the committee, Phillips said that all rules of constitutional order "preclude an action other than the law."
dismissal of the men" and ordered the publication of notice of vacancies. Following this came the battle to reverse the decision of the chair.
He repeatedly asked for a motion that would refer the matter to a faculty committee to decide on the question of the constitution.
To this Murray answered with a demand for his right to be tried by the body of students.
The resolution to withdraw from the NSF.A was passed after a lengthy discussion. The vote on this issue was confined to party lines.
The Council also voted to accept the Student Court decision in the Anneberg case, and the bill proposing to establish the intramural carnival as a permanent affair was read a second time.
The meeting adjourned before the Forum Bill amendment and the dance manager selection could be acted upon. In addition, the committee in the week to consider these issues.

Allen Raps A.A.U. For Incompetency And Profit Seeking
Believes That Colleges Should Control Athletics Since They Furnish Both Equipment and Men
Since the colleges of the country furnish both athletes and equipment, they should control athletic affairs, Dr. Allen believes.
In a statement yesterday Dr. F. C. Allen ripped the A.A.U. as being incompetent and having political control of American Olympic affairs. Dr. Alen's statement of yesterday is a follow-up of his recent charge that the A.A.U. and its politicians were seizing control of Olympic affairs, the charge that he his resignation as Director of the American Olympic Basketball team.
His complete statement follows:
Which shall it be? A.A.U. domination or collegiate supervision for future Olympic games. Without doubt the A.I.U. has a strong athletic in America served a useful purpose. With the passing of the years, the A.I.U. is still working. Were it not for the fact that this organization has the political control on all major events, no such pass out of the picture entirely.
These athletic politicians dominating the A.A.U. levy tribute on cities and universities of all sizes, including A.U. championships, while the colleges and the universities of the country own both land and field and all equipment vitally needed to meet the A.A.U. takes the profits.
What does the A.A.U. own? Nothing but the bare squater's right of being on the team, which is both the individual and the combined voting power necessary to win the game. Anatoxus with its fimbriated tentacles reaching out for self-perpetuating advantages, the officers make places for the managers, the secretaries of the committee, and the various groups for the various sports. This A.A.U. tree of heaven is filled with all the opportunities permitted to get away from the loyal lieutenants who are rewarded by being included in the team one quadruennium and the management of the basketball team at the
Possess No Equipment
The semi-final Olympic Track and Field Championship troyauts are slated to compete in the 2014 Summer Wine, Jus. 26 and 27 while the finals of the Olympic American Championships are billed for Princeton University in 1938. The A.U.A. uses these college athletic grounds because its own oratory skills might be little or no athletic equipment.
The boards of education of our own high schools and the boards of regents universities are the genuine amateur sports promoters of the United States. We present them, and we present athletic plants of our country from whence came practically all of the colleges and universities in Integale championship meets the colleges and universities who sponsor the meets promote the gate receipts to the colleges and universities for enquiries, while the A.A.U. in its championship meets during off-Olympic years appropriates the gate receipts to the colleges and universities.
Dues for Support
The A.A.U. even asks the colleges and universities to pay annual dues and fees in regions of the United States so that the A.A.U. committee members can have their dues paid in cities. We were happy indeed at Kansas to contribute materially to the Olympic fund in both track and baseball, which they have ever under university and collegiate management it would be an easy material for a conference, legitimate planning, to set aside sufficient money to pay the entire expenses of a college without appealing for outside help.
Under A.A.U. management it is necessary to put on an intermediated last session, and a final session of the actual American Olympic win winning participants uncertain of an as-you-wait decision. The frantic and last minute appeal by the A.A.U. shows a lack of long range participation.
Glenn Cunningham, Gene Venken and Bill Brouhse have been packing eastern sports arenas for the past three years and have getting traveling expenses, both for the trips and the fees been tremendous. The profit has gone elsewhere. Why shouldn't a part of those expenses be donated to a field trip or field fund? These fine American amateur athletes are part of the money being generated.
The universities and colleges have the right to pay for the services and the money to put such a project over with the least possible hazards, as they do when they are not sure of the gradients and does have the self-permission.
The past should never lay hold upon the future. When will these athletic politicians, these A.A.U. “Big-Wigs” and handwriting on the wall and abdicate?
