Committee Acts Today on Athletic Recommendations

When the Committee on the Regulation of Athletic Sports meets today, it will act upon the petition of the rifle club to be made a Minor sport and upon two recommendations of the Undergraduate Athletic Council dealing with the cross country team.

Having received provisional approval (to the extent of receiving letter awards) for a Minor sport status from the Student Council and the Undergraduate Athletic Council, the rifle club today concludes its five year fight for recognition as its case goes before the Committee.

These two approvals were given lat last spring, and action by the Committee on the petition was considered earlier this fall but postponed until today.

The rifle club, headed by Walter L. Hyde '41, will continue to hold open house in the basement of Memorial Hall this week. Over 100 men signified their interest in the sport by participating in the shooting there last week.

Athletic Cornell Recommendations

Two recommended lens submitted by the Undergraduate Athletic Council concerning the cross country team will also be dealt with today. The Council recommended that at Major H be awarded to all harriers placing in the first seven at the Heptagonal Meet or to all members figuring in the point score of a cross country team winning either the Heptagonal games or the IC4a run.
