HOT WEATHER HAS UsHERED IN

usual effect upon club life. The houses OF the clubs

whatever is going in the organizations except IN
cases where out-of-door sports are INDUCED IN
The Crescent Athletic Club is always busy with
something or other but its members are apparently
finding it difficult to maintain their interest In one
or two OF the ventures now under way. The base
ball tournament has lost its interest for many OF
the players themselves. and IT now looks as though
several of the games would go by default.
