"The committee has been in communication with a large number of members of the Association in various parts of the country, wlth the object of informing the undergraduate captains in advance, of the athletic material they may expect in the forthcoming freshman class, and with the further object of assisting the captains in bringing out promising men now in college who ought to be in athletics but may not, as yet, be know. Some valuable information has been received and will be put at the disposal of the undergraduate managers and captains.

"The committee is at present considering several matters of importance in connection with the athletics of the University and will report upon them as soon as final action is taken. The secretary has received numerous letters from members asking for information or criticising the management or coaching policy of the athletic teams. Suggestions and criticisms when founded upon facts, have been communicated immediately to the captains and coaches and in many cases have proved of value. In every case suggestions and criticisms have been received by the captains and coaches in the best of spirit.
