temporarily put aside so that the all
important question OF the railroad

ONE-YEAR RULE is
FINALLY PASSED
BY ASSOCIATION
Pro Faction Wins Victory in
Fight Started 20 Years
Ago-Counter Attack by
Small Colleges
My MARVIN MCCARTHY

Bitter warfare featured the eve
ming session of the Southern Inter-
collegiate Athletic association at
the Tutwiler hotel last night. In a
battle, which had many sensational
developments, the one-year rule,
preventing athletes from taking
part in varsity athletics during
their first year at college, was
passed, and went into effect last
night. With the passing of this
rule, fight of 20 years was brought
to a temporary close.
1t was not until two votes had
been taken before the rule was pass
ed, and to Prof. c. L. Hare of Auburn
goes the credit of saving very crit
cal situation. to say the least.
After an unusually brief discussion,
the one-year rule was put to vote,
and it was then that things began
to happen Every college which
joined the recently organized south
ern conference, except Clemson, re-
fused to vote, and the result was a
tie. 10 votes for the rule and 10
against it. After DR.. Phillips OF
Sewanee, president of the S. |. A. A.
for 1921, had announced the rule a
failue, a tension settled over the
house. and 1t was evident that some
thing was going to happen.
Clemson's representative arose
and made a short talk, declaring that
the only reason he voted was that
he wished to show that Clemson still
regards itself a member of the S.
A A., and entitled and willing to
vote. That put the matter UP 20
representatives of other conference
colleges which had refused to vote.
and it was here that Professor Hare
stepped to the fore and saved the day.
Professor Hare Saves Day
Well said Professor Hare,
"Since it is very apparent that the
tie vote is an indication OF the fact
that the larger colleges are not alone
in their desire for the one-year rule.
and since, II the conference member
voted. large majority of s. I A. A.
college would vote for the one year
rule. l have no hesitation in saying
that were | given the opportunity
to vote over again l would vote for
the one-year rule"
motion was quickly made, and
seconded and passed that the one
year rule amendment be brought up
