The National Executive Committee meeting 
was held in Pittsburg, Pa., Oct. 22. The meet¬ 
ing was called to order at 10 a. m., and after 
the usual routine business and the presentation 
of reports, the following business was trans¬ 
acted. 
C. Harry Smith, of Pittsburg, was elected 
secretary. 
Sugar Island was selected as the place for the 
national meet in 1911. The meet will extend 
from Aug. 4 to Aug. 18, inclusive. 
Section 2, Article 4, of the Constitution, was 
changed to read as follows: 
“Ladies may be elected associate members 
by the executive committee when proposed by 
a member of that committee, provided they are 
of the immediate family of an active member 
and have attended at least two general camps. 
Practicable canoeists only are eligible, and they 
may be elected only after publication as pro¬ 
vided for active members. The associate mem¬ 
bership may be revised at any time by the ex¬ 
ecutive committee.” 
A committee was appointed to draw up quali¬ 
fications for men who camp at Squaw Point and 
for the further restriction in the use of this 
part of the camp. This committee consists of 
Messrs. Ohlmeyer, Quick and Wolters. The 
committee was continued in force with instruc¬ 
tions to report at Sugar Island meet. 
Article VI., Section 9, of the Constitution, 
was changed to read as follows: 
“Racing Board.—Each division, in its proper 
turn at its annual meeting, shall elect in the 
same manner as its regular officers, representa¬ 
tives of that Division to serve as members of 
the racing board for a term of three years until 
their successors are elected, representation of 
the division on the board to be according to 
membership as follows: 
“Two representatives for the first two hun¬ 
dred or fraction thereof and one for each ad¬ 
ditional two hundred, and not to exceed three 
from any division. The basis of representation 
shall be the number of members as printed in 
the latest year book. The commodore shall be 
a member ex-officio, but shall not vote in case 
of a tie.” 
The following paragraph from Section 10, 
Article VI., to be omitted: 
“At all meetings of the racing board, three 
shall be necessary to make a quorum, but in 
the event of the absence of any member, the 
executive committee of the same division frorfi 
which he comes may select any other member 
of the association to represent him during his 
disability only, and in the event of the vacancy 
occurring, the same shall be filled for the un¬ 
expired term in the same manner as for the full 
term.” 
And the following new Section 11 substituted: 
“Quorum.—At all meetings of the racing 
board a majority shall be necessary to make 
a quorum, but in the absence of any member, 
he may appoint by letter, another active mem¬ 
ber to vote for him at such meeting; but no 
member to have more than one vote.”
