Leaders Foresee Biggest Sports Boom in History
The National Collegiate Athletic Association delegates at the June meeting in Loui gathered with college presidents and coaches to outline aims for postwar growth. Warnings on professionalism and a denouncement of last season’s bowl games dominated talks, with calls for a stronger NCAA enforcement power and a broader control of scholarships. The convention ended without action, planning to revisit core powers at the 1947 gathering in New York City. An agreement with the Amateur Athletic Union allowed mutual participation in sponsored meets and shared governance of certain events.
