MAY BREAK WITH A. A. u.
College Swimmers All. Wrought
Up Over Sanville Case.
IBy Telegraph TO The Tribune. !

Princeton, y. j.. Jan. 1s.-Accordins to
the statement Of Goulding X. Wight, cap
tain Of princeton's water polo team and
president Of the intercollegiate Swimming
Association. il seems likely that the col
legIate organization will in the future dis
regard the rulings Of the Amateur Ath-
,etic Union In the matter OF the eligibility
of its members.
Wight has called a special meeting Of
tn. association, to be held In New York
on next Tuesday night, and Il Is prob
able that at that time definite steps will
be taken to override the Athletic Unions
authority.
The trouble has arisen over the case Of
sanville. OF the University Of Pennsyi-
vanla, who was debarred from further
amateur competitions by the Amateur
Athletic Union on charges Of professional
ism based on the fact that he had charge
of a hotel swimming pool last summer.
The PENNSYLVANIA faculty thoroughly in
vestigated the case and declared the
charges false.
President Wight said tonight that he
believed that it Is the consensus OF opin-
ion among the members OF the league
that the faculty Of each college should
have inal authority concerning charges OF
professionalism preferred against It's ath-
letes.
