A. A. U. Adopts Rule That

STUDENT STATUS CHANGED
TWO PASTEMERS WHO LEAD DEPARTMENTS IN OFFICIAL COAST
LEAGUE RECORDS RELEASED. YESTERDAY.
Collegians More Than 21 Years of
i Ago Allowed to Compete for Club
In District In Which His
School Is Located.
NEW YORK, Nov. 20. The annual
meeting of the Amateur Athletic Union
was held tonight.
Delegations from 11 associations and
six allied bodies were in attendance
when the meeting begran. The report
of Secretary-Treasurer Rublen, which
was favorably passed upon, showed the
last year was profitable to the extent
of $1721 over all expenses, the best
source of revenue being the National
boxing championships held in Boston,
which netted $3522.
Life Guards Not Professionals.
Charles Pavlicek, employed as a life
fruard at the Chicago Dathlng beaches.
was declared to be In good standing
as an amateur. The delegates declared
that all Hie guards, employed as water
front policemen, who do not accept
compensation as swimming instructors,
are eligible amateurs.
The definition of an amateur as "a
fportsraan who engages in sport solely
for the pleasure and physical, mental
or social benefit he derives therefrom
and to whom sport is nothing more
than an avocation, was adopted.
All the amendments relating to the
disbarment, pardoning and reinstate
ment of athletes who transgress the
rules, which were enacted here last
January, were adopted.
Amateur Delegates Not Required.
An attempt to make it Imperative
that all delegates to the annual meet
ings should be amateurs In good stand
ing caused a heated discussion and was
voted down.
In future when a student reaches his
majority he can register from the place
where his college Is situated as his
residence and compete in open compe
tition for a club In that district. This
means that an adult Tale student can
register from New Haven and compete
for a club In the Metropolitan Associa
tion. A stormy opposition to the commit
tee's proposal to discontinue the regis
tering of women swimmers resulted in
the defeat of the proposition and reg
istration will continue to be granted
to women for swimming events, con
fined exclusively to women, but only
for such events. The Metropolitan,
Southern and Pacific Northwest asso
ciations favored the proposition.
The Texas Association, which had
only three registered clubs, was
merged with the Southern Association.
The Amateur AthletW Union of tlie
United States, before the close of its
meeting, decided to hold Its next an
nual converian at St. Louis in Novem
ber, 1917. Always hitherto the meet
ing has been held In New York. West
ern delegates . urged that the change
be made.
Girl Regain Standing.
By a vote of 27 to 15 Miss Aileen
Allen, of Los Angeles, who won the
National diving championship this year,
was declared an eligible amateur, al
though prior to 1914 she was a pro
fessional swimmer and diver. Miss
Allen's friends made a spirited fight in
her behalf, but were successful only
after a contest which lasted all day.
George J. Turner, of Baltimore, was
re-elected president of the union and
Frederick W. Rublen, of this city, was
again made secretary and treasurer.
Vice-presidents elected were: First.
71. W. Dodd, San Francisco; second,
Thomas B. Watts, St Louis: third. Will
iam A. Trout, Boston; fourth, Joseph
jtitciiie, Chicago.
No dates or places for the National
championships were announced, but it
was recommended to the championship
committee that the National outdoor
senior championship be awarded to St.
Louis, and it was regarded as probable
that the National indoor Junior titular
meet will take place at Buffalo, New
xears nignt.

the club's secretary.
