Minutes of Executive Committee

The Executive Committee met at the Harvard Club, New York
City, April 4, 1936. Those present were the President, Messrs.
St. John, Berry, Bingham, Sackett, Raycroft, Badger, and Fauver,
representing the Secretary.

The following actions were taken:

1. Beginning with the academic year 1936-37, participation in
National Collegiate championship meets shall be limited to repre-
sentatives of colleges that are active members of the N.C. A.A.
The vice-presidents of the Association are requested to call this
vote to the attention of the colleges in their districts, and to notify
them that applications for membership in the N.C. A.A. must be
in the hands of the Secretary at the time of the annual meeting in
December. It seems desirable to make this requirement in order
to avoid applications for membership on the part of various institu-
tions just before championship meets, when they desire to become
members temporarily so as to enter athletes in these meets.

2. Beginning with the academic year 1936-37, competition in
championship meets shall be limited to contestants who have had
not more than three years of varsity competition. This action is
taken with due appreciation of the fact that the Junior College
problem has not yet been solved, but with the idea that, in general,
two years of participation in Junior College would count as at
least one year in a Senior College.

3. The next annual meeting will be held in New York City, the
hotel to be determined by the Secretary in cooperation with the
officers of the other associations meeting with the N.C. A.A. The
Council will meet Sunday evening, December 27. December 28
will be available for the other associations, and will provide time
in which the various committees of the-N. C. A. A. can get together,
organize, and draft resolutions. The general meeting of the
N.C. A.A. will be held on the morning of the 29th, and round table
discussions in the afternoon.
