Resoivsd. That the Executive. Committee be in.

racing classes. and that Il report at . special meet
Ing. of the association which will be held at the
earliest possible date.
An informal discussion began with the state

rule that would equitably handicap both the
racing machine pure and ample and the more

construction was the only method. Messrs.
Stephens and T9wer argued In favor Of the
strictions and OF the idea that a subcommittee
be formed to further discuss the matter and
made to the main body.
The subject was discussed for the first time
at last nights gathering, and the committee
agreed that no hasty action should DO taken
and that the views OF their club msmbers and
various experts should be carefully weighed
before making a final report,
