FACULTY ACTIVITIES

Aside from the annual meetings of the learned societies during the Christmas recess, conferences are also held for the discussion of the athletic side of undergraduate life.

Dr. C. E. Bolser represented Dartmouth at the National Association for Conference on Athletics. As the representative of the first district he read a paper on "The Numbering of Football Players".

Dr. Bowler attended the meeting of the Athletic Research Society on December 29, in the Hotel Astor, New York, and on the next day the convention of the National Collegiate Association. On Dec. 31, he was present at the convention of the Society of Directors of Physical Education in Colleges at Columbia University. During these conferences several important questions were taken up, among them being discussion of the term "amateur" by the Athletic Research Society, and the relation of the college student to summer baseball, by the National Collegiate Association. No action was taken on either of these questions.
