The High School Federation

President Griffith reported on the present status of our negotia-
tions with the High School Federation, regarding representation on
the rules committees. The N. C. A. A. decided at the Pasadena
Convention last July to empower the Council, on request of the
chairman of any rules committee, to add to such committee repre-
sentatives of other national organizations, such as the High School
Federation. Three of the committees have already agreed to ask
representatives of the Federation, one or two in each case, to serve
with them as regular members, and it is understood that the Foot-
ball Rules Committee will invite an advisory member to serve to
represent the Federation. ‘The High School organization, the
president reported, will meet toward the end of February, when a
decision will probably be reached on the question of accepting the
proffer of the N.C. A. A.

Meetings of Rules Committees

In order to save expense, and especially since most of the rules
in the several sports now appear to be in satisfactory form, except
for possible minor changes which can be brought about by cor-
respondence, the Secretary was instructed to write the chairmen of
the several rules committees suggesting the possibility and desir-
ability of calling no meeting of some of the committees this year.
Whether or not the committees meet during the year, but especially
if they do not, the Executive Committee consider it desirable that
the members attend the Annual Convention each year for the pur-
pose of further exchange of views with each other, and to ascertain
the opinions of the various delegates as to future developments of
the sport in question.

Professor Long a Member of the Executive Committee

It was agreed by the members of the Executive Committee
present at this session that at the meeting held in New York after
the recent convention Professor O. F. Long (Northwestern) had
been re-elected a member of the Executive Committee, and that his
name had been omitted by mistake from the list furnished to the
Secretary, who was not present at the meeting. Professor Long is
thus the seventh member of the Committee, a number prescribed
by the By-Laws of the Association.

Dates of December Meetings

By agreement at the last Convention between the secretaries of
the four organizations that have for several years been meeting in
the same city and during the same week, it was determined that the
program of meetings for 1933 in Chicago should be as follows:

Football Coaches Association—Tuesday and Wednesday, Decem-

ber 26 and 27.
Student Health Association—Tuesday and Wednesday, December
26 and 27.
