SMALL COLLEGES PLAN INTERCOLLEGIATE ASSOCIATION

Propose Athletic Schedule of Two Days' Duration to be Held at Springfield.

A meeting of 29 colleges of New England, New York, and New Jersey is called at the Hotel Kimball, Springfield, for February 15, to talk over plans for a new Intercollegiate Association. The meeting will consider the advisability of holding a two-days' athletic meet in Springfield every May.

All of the smaller colleges have been invited, and a large majority of them have signified their willingness to enter into the project providing the rules framed at the coming session are satisfactory.

The University, Yale, Princeton, Dartmouth, Pennsylvania, and Syracuse are not invited, as it was deemed feasible to limit the competition to the smaller institutions.

The following institutions have been invited to send delegates. Bates, Bowdoin, Colby, University of Maine, Boston University, M. I. T., Tufts, Brown, Holy Cross, W. P. I., New Hampshire, University of Vermont, Williams, M. A. C., Amherst, Trinity, Wesleyan, Springfield, City College of New York, New York University, St. John's, Fordham, Stevens Institute, R. P. I., Union, Colgate, Hamilton, Pratt Institute and Rutgers.
