Intercollegiate Association.
Dr. J. S. Wilson represented Wil?
liam and Mary at the meeting of the
representatives of the Virginia In?
tercollegiate Association, Friday, in
Richmond. The following is a brief
account of the meeting published in
next day's Times-Dispatch:
"Representatives of the Vin
Intercollegiate Association met last
night at the Richmond Hotel. The
constitution of the league was modi?
fied and improved, conditions for
clean athletics were taken up and
passed.
"Those present from their respect?
ive institutions were C. P. Miles,
Virginia Polytechnic Institute; Dr.
Hall Canter and P. W. Buhrman. of
Randolph-Macon; J. S. Wilson,
William and Mary; Dr. W. L. Fous
hee and Professor W. P. Dickey, of
Richmond College; J. H. C. Win?
ston, of Hampden-Sidney.
"This meeting was of interest here
lince Richmond College has consid?
ered a withdrawal from the associa
ion unless steps were taken in the
lirection of a revision of several of
te mks of tbe league." J
The basketball team returned Sun
dav afternoon in good shape after
hard fight with the strong Vir
^ team. The following is the
account of the game published in
the Times-Dispatch:
Charlottesville. Va.. January 16?
Virginia's basketball team opered
the season auspiciously tonight by
defeating the strong William and
Mary College quint 25 to 19.
From the tap of the gong in the
second half the plav was fast and
furious. The Williamsburg players
showed a complete reversal of form,
and after ten minutes of play had
come within four points of tieing the
score.
The visitors were at a disadvan?
tage, in that they had not played
under intercollegiate rules, which al?
low dribbling. Altogether, the
amsburg quint showed clever
team work, in which their signals
played an important part. Line up:

Under the heading of "Wants

D Sunday's Times-Dispatch
gard to Richmond College ?
from the Eastern Collegiate
Association:
"Richmond College Ar ?
sociation will hold a special meeting
next Wednesday in the college chap?
el to determine whether it shall v.
draw from the Eastern Collegiate
Association of the smaller colleges of
:he State.

proposed that a withdrawal be con
iidered and any definite action be
rostponed until a later date. The

decision can hardly come
ny too soon, as the schedules are
ompleted for the remainder of the
eason and the football rates wi!!
oon be taken under consideration
*>r next fall.
A withdrawal would also mean
ie loss of the interesting champion
lip contests that have drawn a
Dod following in this city, and
hich have been noted for their
ean playing and good spirit."
The article states that no definite
asons have been given for the
ove, but that Richmond College
rpects to be placed in the rank of
e larger institutions. Richmond
is ot course a perfect right so far
I we know, to withdraw from the
ague, but we do not see where any
'finite reasons for doing so can be
ven. A backward look into its
story in athletics certainly does
>t seem to warrant any such a
lange. In fact during the past
w years, judging by the scores in
e games with the smaller colleges,
would seem that Richmond has
id all that it could do to maintain
position among these srnilier col- j
jes. We cannot see whv R?cn- j
*>nd expects to be out of the class
the smaller colleges, but it may j
that there are some reasons which -
I fail to see, and it mav be
