NATIONAL COLLEGE A.A. FORMS
BODY IN '2l TO FOSTER BOXING
Desiring to foster boxing as a col
lege sport, the National Collegiate
Athletic Association organized the
Intercollegiate Boxing Association in
1921 with ,Navy, M. I T, Penn and
Penn State as charter members. -
Since its founding, the Association
has been the governing body for the
sport and the rules then formulated,
With few Changes, have been the
guide for the conduct of college box
ing.. During the first season after
the formation of the body, teams rep
resenting Yale, Springfield Training
school, Virginia, Carnegie Tech and
United States Military Academy com
peted with Association members under
the new rules
Achieves Firm Foundation
T'ne sport was firmly established in
collegiate circles the next year and
its rules were being -adopted by all
leading colleges in the, country. The
Association, in an effort to obtain com
petent officials, requested the aid of
Mi. William A. Rocap, of Philadel
phia then, chairman of the Pennsyl
vaiiir Boxing Commission, to assist in
selecting a group in accord with the
spirit of college boxing. This plan
hag been successfully followed to the
present time.
It is the desne of the organization
to obtain referees who me college
graduates and wh o have participated
in boxing during their career. An
attempt was made in the 1923-1921
season to have a combined meet in
which all four members would par
ticipate, but plans failed because of
lack of preparation.

competed at Penn that year and Navy
emerged victorious
The following year the same teams

1927 season Colgate withdiew from
the Association, hut M. I. T re-en

members of the agricultui al faculty.

Gentlemen•
I'm a seafarer, and an such of course
travel quite a lot. Right now I am
in the Argentine, and am glad to say
that I can here purchase your beloved
Edgeworth Tobacco, of which I'm so
very fond.
It is indeed a - pity' thpt 000 can't -
find this good smoke in every place of
the seven seas. While recently in
Germany, my home-country, I tried
in vain to come upon one of these little
blue tins I'm not saying too much in
mentioning that' would outwalk that
famous mile, hunting up dear Edge
worth. I dare say there is no other
tobacco like it, and am convinced that
Edgeworth cannot be improved.
Let me know when you contemplate
ceasing to make Edgeworth so that I
may lay in a goodly store to last till
I'm seventy
May Edgeworth never change!
I'll always remain
Sincerely yours,

Unless you have vigorous health it's
bard to keep up in college. In studies.
In campus activities. In athletics.
Constipation is the enemy of health.
Its poisons sap vitality and often cause
serious illness.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN is guaranteed to
bring prompt and permanent relief
from constipation even in chronic
cases. It supplies the system with rough
age in generous quantities. Just eat
two tablespoonfuls every day. With
milk or cream or fruits added. Ask that
it be served at your fraternity house or
