The delegates elected to discuss intercollegiate athletics, and to form, if possible, a state association, convened at a rather late hour on Saturday morninj. Delegates were present from Washburn, Salina, Baker, K. S. Ottawa, State Normal, Manhattan, and Winfield.

was made president, A. Tucker, Washburn, was made secretary and Manhattan treasurer. These three officers were made a committee to draft a constitution.
