Gate sparks protest at indoor nationals in New York
The AAU approved Temple's Ben Ogden starting-gate for the Madison Square Garden indoor championships by a 26 to 18 vote. Critics argued the device unsettles sprinters and may not yield fair results, noting unfamiliarity and past reliability issues. Protests included threats of boycotts as favorites like Harrison Dillard and Ed Conwell faced hurdles and torn tendons altered likely outcomes.

Ass'n Purchases Pheasants For March Delivery
Lorain County Conservation Association held its first 1949 meeting at Ohio Fuel Gas Company with O W Rothel presiding. 216 pheasants were bought for March delivery and many members will assist with liberation. Rabbits will not be purchased this year and no action was taken on coon release amid proposed state laws threatening coon hunting. A motion urged Rep E W DeChant to oppose such measures while warning against dog running and placing coon for release. Ticket officers expect 500 Sportsmen's Show tickets to sell in Cleveland, and monthly meetings will begin March on the second Tuesday.
