For a 230 A SPORTING PILGRIMAGE time the L. A. 0. held its meetings on the grounds of the A. A. C. at Lillie Bridge, and the two worked harmoni- ously in the good cause. But the London Club, with its more active members and more vigorous constitution, soon made it evident that the older club was losing position, and in '76 there came a rupture between the two, which led to the London Athletic Club securing its present ground at Stamford Bridge. Although fast reaching a moribund condition, the A.... A. C. was not inclined to surrender its prestige without a struggle ; therefore, that year two championships were held, and a division of interests created which ended finally in the collapse of the weaker A. A. C.
Added to this conflict was a growing feeling among ••non - university athletes that the date of the champion- ships should be changed from the spring to summer, on the ground that the Oxford and Cambridge men, by reason of having their own athletic sports in February and March, had a considerable advantage in the cham- pionships over the club athletes, who were not able to get " fit " so early in the year.
