Dartmouth at Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

At the meeting of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association held at the Hotel Astor, New York, on December 29, Dartmouth was represented by Professor Laycock, delegate from the college faculty, and by Mr. Clarence G. McDavitt '00, delegate at large from the College. Of special interest in the business of the meeting, was the re-election of Mr. E. K. Hall '92 as member of the Football Rules Committee for the ensuing year. Mr. Hall has for the past four years occupied the office of secretary of the amalgamated Rules Committee, where his energy, foresight, and wisdom have made him invaluable.

Of general interest is the change in the name of the organization from Intercollegiate to National Collegiate Athletic Association, a step made advisable on account of the large increase in the number of institutions-represented. It is likewise worthy of note that, while football was the chief subject of discussion at the meeting, the game was less fiercely attacked than heretofore. In fact; the new rules in effect during the past season appear to have given rather general satisfaction.
