These measures, if adopted, would result in changes in the by-laws oi the or- ganization which would almost completely revolutionize conditions under which foot ball teams are being developed and also all previous circum- stances concerning summer base ball. Among the matters to be brought before the meetings will be a pro- posal to eliminate freshman foot ball activities and allow no schedules of any kind for first-vear teams; another rule which an af tempt is to be made to put across is to bar college athletes from participation in any kind of base ball games during the summer, and thus eliminate for all time and effectively the summer base ball question.
