Special to Independent,
i Little Rock, Dec. 1.—Such I.
I drastic action will be taken by j ft
j the Arkansas Athletic Associa-;!
| tion during the winter, that wi' iC
j forever bar from the ranks of j S
the association every athlete |»
against whom there is even a ||
suspicion of professionalism.
Because the association per-!a
mitted players to compete a - , jj
amateurs, who were suspiciomm «
to be professionals, but again - ' |
whom proof could not be secur-; j
ed, Ouachita College withdrew jj
from the association. The e.v- j g
cutive committee now has prou:'j g
against prominent athletes oi i
jtwo of the leading college I j
j teams, which will bar them front *
j future contests, and which, v.i (
j probably prevent an award ot if
j the championship in the colleg- j!
| iate football class. The elimina-; >
tion • 7 tl ese men is expecte<l to t

i fold.

Two of the largest cities have |
'alreadv given notice they wi:. j
j not permit their teams to con- I
‘test with two leading high !
| schools of the state as long as I
'the present coaches are engag-jj
led. These coaches are charged j
J with being unsportsmanlike in j
their actions on the field. Pro-1j
j far.it is one of the charge-I j
Jag tl n, and this is a c<
j dinal crime in the eyes of the i;
j committee
I Th- executive committee ha- j j
I declined to receive the applica-jj
tior. of the Helena High schorr j
for membership, based upon the i
squabble when Texarkana play- i
ed Helena basketball in that city j
last year.
The committee desires sport '
for sport’s sake, and for this
reason the awarding of cham
pionships will probably be elim
inated after this year, it being
the sense of the committee that
the association will be more har
monius if there is no cup- A
plan will be worked out to pre
vent post-season games.
It has been suggested that the
football teams which expect to
be in the race for the champion
! ship, send their claims to the
i executive committee by the first
, of November, thus permitting
the committee to make sched
ules for these teams for the two
or three following Saturdays,
and Thanksgiving Day. This
would permit the strong teams
