A resolution asking the Ivy League to permit athletes to play in post-season all-star games was tabled by the Student Council last night. The motion had first been passed by the Cornell Student Council, which asked other such groups in the League to approve it. Only Brown has done so.

Confusion about the specific intent of the Cornell resolution caused the Council's delay. Members were uncertain as to whether the Cornell resolution applied to post-season contests in all sports, or only to two all-star football games.

A Cornell Student Council spokesman explained last night that the resolution mentioned only two football games, but was intended to apply to all post-season contests conducted for charity.

Meanwhile, it was learned that eight Ivy League athletic directors had given Cornell basketball co-captain Chuck Rolles special permission to play in the East-West allstar game in New York. Thomas D. Bolles director of athletics explained that the exception was made because such participation was prerequisite to Rolles' consideration for the Olympic team.

The Council discussion indicated a trend towards urging that all individual participation in post-season all-star games be permitted. A motion that would have asked that teams be allowed to compete failed for lack of a second. It seemed likely that when the subject is re-opened at next week's meeting, a proposal favoring at least some individual participation in post-season charity contests would be passed, even if not identical to the Cornell and Brown resolutions.
