J„ Jan. 21.—Two more world records passed into history when l’aavo Nurmi stepped out in Newark tonight. Running in the “Nurmi special,” two and three-quarters miles feature of the St. Joseph games. Nurmi broke the former record for this distance and the two and oqe fourth miles. He was out for the two and one half mark, too. But he missed out by four-fifths of a second. This brings Nurmi's indoor records, since his ar rival in this country, up to 10. Kighl of them belonged to Joie Ray. To night Nurmi worked on Kolehmainen. Nurmi's world record for the two and one-fourth was 10:42. The for mer wl£ 10:42 1-5. Nurmi's record for the two and three-fourths was 13:03. Kolehmainen made it in 13:06 3-5. DODGERS DENY KILLEFER REPORT New Tork, Jan. 22.—Fred Hanlon, secretary of the Brooklyn National league, today characterized as “ab surd” reports from Seattle that the Brooklyn club had been negotiating with Wads Killefer to manage the Dodgers during the coming season. The report added that Killefer de clined the offer, said to have been $15,000 a year. “Manager Wlll»ert Robinson is rap idly recovering from his recent ill ness and expects to go south to 1 lie training camp at Clear Water, Kia., next month,” Hanlon said. "With Robinson in good health the Brooklyn qlub has no use for another man ager.” It may be all right to foliw a fad, but it isn’t necessary to swallow it.

Resignation of Fred f. Dawson. tHK announcement (his morning by Chet Wynne, head foot b a II coat- h at Creighton univer /Ci ally, that lie liad notified Nebraska athletic ofli '• I a 1 « that lie would re main at Creighton until ills present contract expired two years hence, put’ an end to ru mors that the popu lar grid mentor would accept the position or head football coach at the University of Nebraska. Although Ids candidacy lia.« been urged by scores of admirers because of Ills brilliant work at Creighton the last two years. Coach Wynne denied that he ever was an applicant for the Nebraska coachship. Jte said that he bad conferred with athletic authori ties at their request. Appreciation of the loyal support lie has been accorded at Creighton and a "feeling of moral obligation to fulfill Ids present contract” were given as the reasons (nr Wynne's decision lo stick to the liluejajs' camp. Wynne's announcement came, at j a lime when Nebraska authorities admitted that the former Notre Maine lullhacii was most highly re garderi among men being sought fur the coachship. The withdrawal of Wynne's name from the list of possible conches for the job made vacant by the resignation of Fred T. Maw son leaves Krnest llearg, assistant to Zuppkc at Illinois, as the most likely candidate for the coachship. Word was received from l.'rbana, 111., last night that Bearg would go to Lincoln Saturday to confer with Nebraska athletic authorities relative' to tlie job. That Bearg will be Nebraska’s new head Mot bail coach seems almost cer tain. The Illinois assistant coach has been ocered a coachship at Wash ington university, St. Louis, but re fused to sign pending the action of Nebraska authorities. An announcement is expected out of Lincoln Saturday relative to the new Hunker head football coach. Legion Signs Henry Malcor to Box Johnny Nichols at Auditorium Henry Malcor, who recently creat ed a sensation by a streak of -victories on live coast, id coming to Omaha to ‘‘whip" Morrie Schlaifer. Malcor. whcise home is at Kansas City, has so declared himself through Ids manager, William Klynn, a Kan sas City theatrical man who has spent two days here making arrange fnents for Malcor's debut in an Oma hg ring. “We want to fight Schlaifer, and fight him soon. We'll fight any body tlie promoters ask us to, in order lo demonstrate Malcor's right to a Schlaifer match,” said Klynn. And so .Malcor is going to fight on next Friday's legion card, when Itoh K»per and .lack Kenault meet in the main cxent. Johnny Nichols of St. I’aul, the crafty welterweight who defeated Nchlaifer on three separate occa sions, has been chosen as Malcoi's "stepping stone.” If Malcor can heat Nichols derisively, he will get his chance against Schlaifer, the promoters have promised. Malcor is known as the "boy w ith the knockout wallop." He stirred boxing circles when he knocked out three opponents on Uiree successive nights on the coast. Two of the men, Jimmy O'Hagen of Buffalo and Gor don McKay of Salt Lake City, were considered favorites over Malcor. The third victim waa Battling Ortega. Harvey Thorpe was another victim of Malcor'a knockout punch, Malcoi's record shows but one de feat, that fit the hands of Bert Co lima, Pacific Coast middleweight champion. T»WT«M' KNIGHTS?1 •fthr .

Series of Articles { on History of j Johnson Are False NEW YORK. *Ihii. ?!.—Waltor Johnson, ii'k'ran pilrlii. g hero of (lie last world's series, today asked llie supreme court to issue a restrsinliig order cnjoiniliB tlin Thompson Feature Service incorpor ated, llir dtrookly n llaily # Eagle and other newspapers throughout tlin country from further use of a series of syndicated articles purporting to lie a history of Ids baseball career. The star of the Washington twirl ing staff also served notice in the courts that he would sue for $541,000 damages and for an accounting of re ceipts from publication of eight of a projected series of 12 articles dealing with Ids life. The veteran pitcher al leges the series is a “sham, a fraud and a fake.” His injunction plea will lie argued before the supreme court by Ids attorney, Hyman liushel, nest Thursday. Johnson's ^omplalnt recites that since November, IS24. the Brooklyn Daily Eagle ami many other papers in the United States have been pub lishing articles in the series. The articles written by Lillian Barker represent Johnson as having related his experience* to the writer for purposes of publication. The com plaint charges that the Thompson service sold the series on the repre sentation that they had been related to Miss Barker in his own words and that the concern had the sole right to dispose of the article in the United States. Before the closing game of the world series, the complaint avers, Johnson made a contract with the Christy Walsh syndicate for the pub lication of the history of his baseball career, with the understanding that the articles were to be written by hie wife, Hazel Johnson. At no time, the pitcher complains, did he give the Thompson company permission to publish and sell the story of hl3 life. Yanks to Take 38 Players Soutk m • 4 New York.
