BOWDOIN NEWS

At the last meeting of the Student
Council it was voted to send "Af'
Morrell '22l and Steven Palmer '23
as delegates TO the Athletic Confer
cnce at Amherst. This conference
is the result of IA recent conference
of the presidents of Amherst, Will
liams. Wesleyan, and BoTdoin. The
purpose of the conference will be to
consider professionalism and other
problems of college athletics. The
discussion on professionalism will
probably concern baseball and
especially the problem of summer
baseball for college men. The invita-
ton sent 40 Bowdoin to join this
conference includes besides the re-
quest TO send two student delegates,
a request for faculty representative.
As a result Professor Austin Mac
CormaCk was chosen to represent the
faculty in this important position.
Mr.. MacCormack is alumni secretary
and ably fitted TO discuss the prob
lem, his athletic record at BoWdoin
vas an enviable one. "Al' Morrell
as president OF the Student Council

resent the college in this capacity.
Last fall he was captain of football
and named for Maine fullback.
steve" Palmer is a member of the
track team and runs the relay. He
recently ran in The Sophomore
Freshman meet on the varsity re-
lay team which broke the indoor
track record for relay. Much i'm
portance is attached to this confer
oncc not only in the matter of re-
suits it may accomplish. but also on
account of the furtherinS of relations
between the four mentiOnal colleges.
A recent meeting was held for the
organization of BoWdoin Women in
Portland. This meeting came as a
result of the starting of the New
York Club of Bowdoin Women at
which Mrs. Howard r. Ives of Port
