THE DAl ANCE Of lac THE YEAR! LOCAL The Michigan wasomil! No. 1. ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 26, 1915. BOAD COSIDERS INTER-GLASS PLAN New System of Intercollegiate Atlet- les to Be Presented to Athletic Mentors at Today's Meeting PLAN INCLUDES REVISION OF PRESENT SPORT SUPERVISION May Create Managership on Footing with Others; Combine Two Offices Interclass athletics will assume a position alongside of the Varsity sports, if a plan drawn up by a com- mittee of the board of directors of the athletic association is adopted. At a recent meeting, the board of directors appointed a committee, con- sisting of Intramural Director Rowe and Treasurer T. Hawley Tapping, to revise the system 'of supervision of in- terclass sports. This committee will report to the board at its meeting this afternoon. The plan that will be presented pro- vides for the enlarging of the board of directors by the addition of the in- tramural director. The offices of sec- retary and treasurer will be combined, according to the plan, and in the extra place, an intercollege manager will be added. The intercollege manager will rank on the same basis as the other managers, and will represent inter- class athletics directly on the board. In addition, the new plan calls for an intercollege board of control. This will consist of eight students, one from each department, and three fac- ulty men. The eight students will be chosen from the sophomore team man- agers of each department, by all of the managers of that department. They will tae office their junior year. The intramural director and intercollege manager will be ex-officio mem- bers of the board. To this board in control of intercol- lege athletics will come all ques- tions of dispute in class competition, the awarding of insignia, and any oth- er matters which concern only class athletics. The board of directors of the athletic association will have veto power over their actions. The final step in the revision will be in the manner of the election of the new intercollege manager. At the end of the year,. the intercollege board of control will nominate from its own body four candidates for the office of intercollege manager. On general campus election day, a student vote will choose the man who will act in this capacity. The new plan will raise the plane of inter-class sports, if adopted, and place them on a better organized and more efficient basis. NEW STUDENT COUNCIL SWORN IN AT LAST NIGHT'S MEETIN Use of Spike Shoes in Spring Games by Freshmen is Being Investigated Recently elected members of the student council took the oath of office at last night's meeting of that body, R. M. Carson, '17, H. L. Carroll, '17E, C. H. Allen, '161-H, H. Henderson, '16M, and W. Wilson, '1D, taking their plac- es as representatives of their respect- ive classes. A committee was appointed to tbor- oughly investigate the question of the use of spikes in last Saturday's un- derclass contests. G. W. Rouse, '17, suffered a broken nose, and at least one other second year man was injur- ed in the push ball contest, and from the statements of these men it is be- lieved that a freshman eluded the councilmen and other officials who made every effort to keep out men wearing dangerous looking shoes.
