U., It seems, there lingers a delief that amateur athietes ou te wear collars and tags and be Im-| pounded whenever they are found in the street unaccompanied by ther owners, ‘Tae Iatest invention Intended to Increase the subjugation of the unfortunate amateur ls a “two-year releaso” rule ‘This will soon be voted upon and, as amateur athletes have nothing what- @ver to say in affairs of this sort, will probably find a piace in the neat but Bet gaudy book of rules published an- mually by the A. A.

G He might become a member of the N. ¥. A.C. @ bona fide member, peying his dues and having all the privileges of his membership. At the @ame time he might resign from the Pastime But unless the Pastime chose te “release” him he could not compete under the colors of his own club, the M. Y. A. C., until two years had passed, ‘This rule is abeurd and tyrannical. The question ‘s simply th @lub own its members, or do the mem- bers of a club own the club? In the former case one might well be a @onscript in the German Army as clus member. The A. A. U. séema inciined to treat @thletes like hired professionals If in the supposititious caso outlined above, the Pastime A. C. had a contract with the athiete—bad him under salary Uke a professional bali player—the club Would have a right to claim his ser Vices for the full term of the contract. But an “amateur” is supposed to be one who competes for the pleasure of com- Peting, not for any financial induce- ment.
