Shriner Cancellation Falls To Stop Peabody's Training

Chub Peabody went back into training for the East-West game yesterday despite the fact that the contest in San Francisco has been officially called off.

Working out for hour and a half at the Indoor Athletic Building, Peabody skipped rope and punched the bags, keeping to his prearranged schedule. It was thought possible that though the game was cancelled for the coast city, it might be played in some other section of the country.

Peabody still had not heard from the Shriners, sponsors of the game, as to any cancellation, and therefore went ahead with his preparations. Loren MacKinney, who was scheduled to play left end for the East, is home at Chapel Hill, North Carolina, visiting his parents before the supposed game.
