The foregoing dates for contests be.
tween the colleges Of Utah were decideo
upon by representatives OF the fonr coi-
leges at a meeting held at the Kenyon
hotel yesterday afternoon. This sched-

which has handled these things In the
past and which did SO nomlnally yester-
day, has virtually passed out of exist
ence. The University OF Utah Withdrew
from the. conference Just before the a,t state
drawal from the conference by the
varsity was the inability on the part Of
the institution to comply with two sets
Of eligibility rules. one. imposed by the
state conference and the other. by the
Rocky Mountain conference. The Uni
versIty Athletic council considered the
Rocky Mountain conference to be more
from the smaller union

the Rocky Mountain conference Will make
draw also from the Utah organization In
the near future This leaves the E. Y.
u and the B. Y. c. the only remaining
members Under these conditions it viii
competition among the Utah schools.
Approaching the necessity of readjust-
ing the present rules, the representatives
at yesterdays meeting decided that an
attempt should be made to raise the eligi-
biIity requirement OF the 3. Y. L. and
the B. Y. c.. so that the same rules
could be placed upon their athletes as
now govern those OF the Rocky Mountain
conference
with this end in view. Fred Bennion
was authorized by the meeting to call
meeting OF representatives from the
faculties OF the four colleges with a view
TO drawing up new rules The represen-
tatives at this meeting cannot be Goa aches
or be otherwise connected with athletics.
The purpose of this IS to get men who
are acquainted a with the conditions in
the different colleges and who can name
what requirements, schola stically, ath-
letes can be made to live UP to in the
various colleges.

bantamweight champion, Johnny Coulon
of Chicago, and if he proves to be
anything like his namesake he is like
ly to be wearing the bantamweight
crown before a great while.
Eddie Coulon has come to tho front
within the past six months in New
Orleans In the Crescent City they
think he is one of the greatest bantams
ever developed In the south. Already
they have visions OF battle between
Eddie and either Johnny or "Kid y
Williams for the championship.
Eddie was going along very nicely,
and his greatest boost came week or
two ago, when he was matched with
Dick Loadman of Milwaukee, formerly
of Pittsburg. According to all ac-
counts Eddie gave Richard quite a
trimming, and basing this showing on
former dope, he should be pretty near
in line for a big match, Loadman took
on "Kido Williams for ten rounds in
Milwaukee last fall with only a couple
of days notice, but he managed to
stay through the ten rounds and give
the Baltimore kid quite an argument.
The New Orleans fans figure that
Eddie gave Loadmsn a worse beating
than Williams, and that he is right in
line for the Baltimore boy, or at least
Johnny Coulon. His manager, Remy
Door, is so elated over the boys
showing that he has decided to make
an eastern tour with him. There are
plenty Of good bantanweights in the
east, and if Eddie can run the gaunt-
let in that section Of the country he
is strictly o. K.
