Show BASKETBALL ABOLISHED. Too Much Time Devoted to Athletics at Hamilton College. Tribune Special Sporting Servlco UT1CA. May 5. The faculty at Hamilton Ham-ilton college has decided that the students stu-dents are giving too much time and attention to athletics, and as a result those in charge are going to insist that one branch be cut out. It has been practically decided that basketball will be discontinued. At a recent meeting of the Athletic association it was announced that the faculty also decided that one track meet would have to be cancelled, and the association has decided to cancel the dual track meet with Colgate and hold only two meets this year, one with St. Lawrence, and the intercollegiate meet. The action taken by the faculty fac-ulty brought a bitter protest from the college body, but to no avail. |
