 The Yale GymnastiC association was organized in October of 1899, for the ad- vancement of physical health and bod fly strength, but it was not until the following year that the association be- came a well known quantity. Its pro- gr6ss was slow but sure, due to the un- tiring efforts of MT. John Edward Hcaton, Dr. W. C. Anderson and the present captain of the team. Last year four meetings were held, ending with an exhibition by the Princeton and Yale teams. This year the work will be shown in but two exhibitions. the one last night and the other February F, 1896. followed in March by a joint eXh- bition of the Yale and Princeton teams at Princeton.
 The granting of a "Y" obtained by the mutual consent of the four captains of the various athletic branches to the all round gymnast, has added a new i'm petus to the work and greatly increased the competition.

 Lehlbach '97, secretary; Frank F. Wade 96, treasurer; George L. Bust '96, captain.
