f a By Joseph Gordon. N important action taken by the National Collegiate Athletic Asso- lation at {ts seventeenth annual convention at the Hotel Astor yesterday was acceptence of thé invitation extended more than a year ago by the American Olympic Association to join that body and co- operate with it in furthering and improving plans for the Olympic classic at Paris. This step ts virtually a peace agreement between the Collegiate Association and the Amateur Athletic Union, whose part control over the , American Olympic Association was one of the chief reasons why the N. C. A. A. turned down an opportunity to become a member of the A. 0. A. at its annual convention last year. Credit for this action, so important 4 to American athletics, ts duc largely to Gen, Palmer A. Pierce, President of the Collegiate Association, whose diplomatic’ handling of tho situation averted a repetition of last year’s meeting, when a resolution to join the A. O. A. met with protest. Presl- @ent Pierce, who was re-elected to the Presidency of the association for the fifteenth time, explained to the elegates the changes which had been made in the constitution of the Amer- fean Olympic Association, and his resolution that they become a mem- ber of that body was passed unani- mousty. Plans for the Olympic Games will how go forward unhampered. Amer- fea will, as in the past, depend largely on the college athlete to uphold the prestige of American athletics in the Olympics. As {t was pointed out by President Pierce, since 1896 69 per cent. of the athletes who won firsts in the Olympic Games were college men, and they formed the backbone of the teams sent over for interna- tional competition. . The trend regarding college ath- and its relation to university tm general and studies tn particu- Jar, was iMustrated im a speech by De. S. V. Sanford, University of Georgia. He attacked the growing ftemaency of the smaller colleges. ‘whose “glowing ambition” to play in Jarge cities, before large assemblies send against powerful teams was a mt, in his opinion, to educa- Mion in the United States.
