Details of the plan for appointing Walter Camp director of athletics at Yale and consolidating all branches of athletics were announced by President Hadley in his recent speech to the St. Paul, Minn., alumni. He said: "The debt on the Yale field will be paid off before the next annual meeting of the Yale field corporation. The field will then be transferred to the president and fellows of Yale, and Walter Camp will be appoint treasurer of the Yale field. The managers of the different athletic interests have arranged to place the revenues under the control of a permanently constituted board, of which Camp will be a member, which will result in affairs being administered in unity. The student part will work with the corporation part. Camp himself will give to this matter the whole time, which he has hitherto given to the writing of magazine articles of various kinds. He will give the students and the faculty the benefit of his advice and we hope that this work will tend to much needed reforms."
