Track stars of the Big Six, and Southwest conferences will clash in a meet at Dallas June 13.
Big Six Thinclads Enter Dallas Meet
The ideas came out of the meeting of Big Six representatives at Lincoln, Neb. Friday and Saturday, Prof. W. W. Davis, the University's Big Six representative, said first, second, and third placers in each event at the Big Six meet in Lincoln Saturday will compete with stars from the Southwest conference, chosen the same way.
"We spent about an hour on it and the problem of Negro participation never came up. There were several objections to A & M admittance brought up by other schools," he said.
As things stand, each school will play six conference football games after Colorado's admittance. This will leave each with a chance for four other games.
The meeting brought no decision on the Oklahoma A & M admittance question.
Professor Davis said the school objecting to Oklahoma A & M did not want to cut down on their out-of-conference games, which would happen if another school were admitted.
Big Six representatives will meet in Kansas City June 27, 28, and 29 to re-codify conference rules. It has been about 10 years since this was done.
There was an hour's discussion on proposed NCAA "lilly white" rules, which would eliminate aid of any kind to athletes and prohibit off-campus contact with prospective athletes.
The representatives finally decided they could do nothing about Big Six acceptance of the rules, until January 1, when the NCAA will take official action on its own proposals.
