Proposed Change in the I. C. A. A.

Swathmore college has given notice that she will propose an amendment to the constitution of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association to the effect that a student shall be allowed to compete at the meetings four times and no more and that no student shall compete on one college team who has ever competed on another. This is looked upon in the light of an approval of the Yale captain's course in the movement for the purification of athletics.

Swathmore also proposes that all entries to the games be closed three weeks before the dates decided upon; that all races requiring more than three trials for an individual to win shall have such trials run off in the morning; that if a college fails to score for three consecutive years it shall be dropped from the association. No college shall enter more than five men to any one competition.
