The annual meeting of the I. C. A. A. A. A. was held in New York at the Fifth Avenue Hotel Saturday afternoon and passed off very smoothly.
Delegates were present from 17 colleges.
President Kirby read his report in behalf of the executive committee. He Pointed out three salient occurrences of the past year, the advantage gained by the close alliance with the A. A. U., the success of the first intercollegiate bicycle meet, and the consent of the L. A. W. to allow college riders to be governed by the rules of the I. C. A. A. A. A. in college meets.
Under the head of new business applications for admission to the Association were received from Boston College, Pennsylvania State College, Haverford College, and Leland Stanford University of California, and were accepted. Further, Article IX of the Constitution was amended to allow the date of the bicycle races to be fixed by the executive committee. Hereafter the best performance in a field event during the two afternoons shall win the event, and every man competing for the first time must furnish a certificate signed by three members of the faculty of his college to the effect that he has attended studies five hours a week since October 15th preceding.
