Ignore Withdrawal
u. of Maine from
Track-Field Assn.

Lewiston, Oct. SO--BateS, Bowdoin
and Colby are to ignore the with
drawal Of University Of Maine from
the Intercollegiate Track and Field
Association. II the University per-
siSts in its stand that it will have
nothing to do with the association
changed. then the three other colleges
will go ahead with track and field
plans on three-cornered basis.
There was a meeting Of the associa-
ton here Saturday. 1t is the general
te cling that the University is to come
back into the fold.
The University dropped out OF the
association ranks last spring. claim
ing it would have nothing further to
do with the organization until coach
es were barred from voting.
The University took part In the
annual spring meet. however. and
will enter a team of barriers in the
annual fall cross country run at
Brunswick the last day of this month.
At the last meeting of the associa-
ton the Maine matter was not
preached. Saturdays meeting a: the
Dewitt hotel was called for the pur-
pose of considering the Universitys
cotton.
No representative Of the Universe
~ was present. Those attending
were: Coach Jenkins. manager
Woodcock, Bates: Coach Ryan. Man
ager Sturtevant. Colby; Coach Magee
Manager Bradeen and chairman OF
the track committee, Thomas White
Bowdoin.
1t was decided not to change the
constitution TO suit the University.
1t was the feeling of the meeting
that any college shall not dictate to
the association.
Bates. Bowdoin and Colby interpret
the constitution to read that a men,
Der college may send two represen-
OF the voting representatives being
the track coach.
A minor change was made. The ar
ticle section reading THAT an Off
Ger OF the executive committee shall
be an undergraduate Of the Junior
class was stricken out.
Plans for the cross country run
were talked over Virgil c. McGorrill
OF Portland was chosen referee.
Coach Magee of Bowdoin will start
the race. which Is scheduled for Oct.
81. at Brunswick. The coach Of each
college where the race Is held starts
the race.
Coach Jenkins stated ne under
stood L. OF NJ, was to enter 4 team
in the race.
It was reported that L. OF NJ. will
probably come back into the associ-
alton.
The constitution and bylaws of
the association have been recently
revised and brought up to date and
now equal any in the country.
