To Disease Schnlnrehips. Scholarship, as related to athletics, will be the most Important toplo for discussion st the meeting of the repre sentatives. There Is a warm scrap brew ing over a proposed rule which was brought up at the last Missouri Valley conference meeting) and whlah, provides that any Missouri Valley , athlete must carry each year at least one-quarter of his college course during the years of participation in athletics and also during the freshmen year. Prof. Orove Barber, the Nebraska rep resentative, was the only member of the conference who voted against it. Since then Pof. Barber has received letters that Drake and Kajtsas Agricultural school will oppose It. . Final Action Friday. The rule comes up for .final action at the meeting next Friday and the Ne braska athletic board is determined to accomplish Its defeat At the Husker In stitution the rule would force a student participating In athletics to carry thirty one hours during the freshmen year and during the years he participated in ath letics. In order to pass, the rule will have to ave a two-thirds majority vote, thus re quiring five of the seven votes of the con ference members. . Another question which the conference will consider Is the effect of athletics on scholarship.. Statistics ' will be prepared showing the relative scholarship stand ing of foot ball, basket ball and track men, and comparisons will be drawn with students engaged In other activities such as fraternities,, debating and college pub lications. ' Prof. Orove E. Barber will be the Ne braska - representative at the conference) meeting.
