The annual meeting of the Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association was held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in New York, on Saturday, George E. Lowell, '83, the president, in the chair, B. W. Macintosh, of Lafayette acting as secretary. Eleven colleges, Harvard, Yale. Princeton, Columbia, Pennsylvania, Amherst, Cornell, Lafayette, Legigh, College of the city of New York, and Stephens were represented. Brown was dropped from the list of members, because it has failed to be represented by any competitors at the meets of the last three years. Union college was re-admitted to membership. A programme was arranged for the meeting in May. The date was settled as the 24th, and the place Manhattan Grounds. This decision caused much dispute. The programme differed from last year only in this respect, that the tug-of-war will be pulled on cleats instead of on the turf. This is a much fairer method of pulling. Almost every year hitherto it has been found that the ground on one side was sand or loose, and gave the other team a decided advantage, such an advantage that the team on the ground side, whatever its real ability was pretty sure to win. A vote was taken as to the merits o the new athletic resolutions and a decided majority was on the negative side. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President. J. M. Wainwright, '84, Columbia; vice-president, A. G. Fell, '84, Princton; secretary, J. L. Ludlow, '86, Lafayette; treasurer, D. B. Bemey, '82, University of Pennsylvania; executive committee, the president, ex-officio, W. M. Burr, '84, Harvard, and A. C. Thompson, '85, Yale.
