quarter mile run, Will contest. 4 large
number of athletes from the University
of Pennsylvania, as well as teams from
other of the Big Four" institutions of
learning will be in attendance. One thing
that seems to practically foreshadow the
success of the games is the fact that they
viii be held on two days before the in
auguration, when there will be thousands
OF college men in Washington. 1t is ex-
pected that the athletes of the colleges
throughout the country will kill two birds
with one stone, so to speak, by coming

to athletes from ali schools in the United

N. J. Thompson, &C Georgetown Univer-

games. Cheevers Moran Barry, '01, is
manager OF the track team. The follow

The track Jean at Georgetown Univer-
sity is already in active training, and it
is the hope of Captain Duffy that his men
shall carry of a large share of the honors
at their own meet. The training table
will be started next week. The following
men are at present at work under Coach
Foley on the new indoor track at the
university: Duffy Holland, Reilly, Owens,
Naylor. Driscoll Corby, O'Brien, Golden,
Kinberger, Abbattichio, Minnahan, Con-
nors, McLear. Sheridan, Ford, and Len
nan. OF course, Captain Duffy is the main
stay of the team but there is a good deal
OF first-class new material that is eX-
pected to show up pretty well during the
coming season. Holland is in good trim
and will prove a formidable factor in the
quarter mile run. Captain Duffy viii go

very well satisfied with the showing the
bostmen made at Poughkeepsie last year.
tt crew was a green one. but full Of good
material. There will be plenty of strength
in the boat this year and il is expected
that the eight will develop much better
form than that displayed last year. No
call has been issued for candidates, but
number of the old men are working stead
lily at the machines and will be in first
class physical condition when the weather
moderates sufficiently for work on the
Potomac.
The strong hope Of Georgetown athlet-
les lies in the baseball team. Most of the
fast players on last years nine will be
seen again on the diamond. An excellent
schedule of games has been arranged.
which includes a Northern trip, during
which games viii be played with many OF
