be enjoying boom more extensive
than any hitherto experienced
The athletic department under Prof.
Maurice Joyce has never before in its his
tory had so large a number of members,
old and young, enrolled for active work as
now.
The efforts of the physical director are
directed more to teaching bodybuilding
exercises than to the development of spe-
cialties. The playing of popular indoor
games is encouraged, and in these large
numbers participate in addition to the
teams regularly chosen TO represent the
Carroll Institute in championship series.
The basketball team will be the strong
est and fastest that has represented the
Carroll Institute in several years, and
should come very near TO winning the
league championship. Joe Dreyfuss is the
smallest man on the team but he is re-
garded one OF the fastest in the league.
Thompson is old at the game. and plays
at guard, and the guard who plays oppo-
| site him is generally kept very busy.
| Phillips is one of the best goal throwers
| in the league.
Clary is a strong back" and will play
| in most of the Carroll Institute games.
Harding is another good back" He is
| the biggest man on the team, but he
| covers lots Of ground. Whalen is aTother
| of Joyce's crack players, and doing good
work. Kirby is a hard worker in the gym.
and is a member of the baseball and bas-
ketball teams, and is prominent in both.
| Kerr and Costello are leading members Of
| the second team, and good subs for the
| hard workers in the gym, and enthusias-
| tic followers of the indoor games. Alto
| gether. the Carroll Institute is stronger in
players-good ones--than ever before, and
should be a winner
National Guard Athletics.
The several basketball and baseball
teams organized from among the rank
and file of the District National Guard
| under the energetic direction of Capt. f.
| c. Edwards in charge of the gymnasium
and Prof. Horan, physical director. have
| become quite a feature In the big armory,
and are the cause of the largely increased
attendance there. As result Of the
| rivalry among the teams the gym il
| crowded nightly with men taking exer-
cises and practicing for games scheduled
| for the respective teams.
In view of this decided revival of in
| terest. it seems no more than fair, say
| the members Of the Guard, that the
| managers of the teams should be allowed
| to charge an admission fee to the cham
/ pionship games scheduled for tie armory
so that the cost of playing uniforms and
| equipment may be betrayed al least in
part. As II is now, the men pay for
their own uniforms. 1T is suggested, -
said one Of the officers, that Major Neu-
meyer and the board of control get to-
gether and arrange to waive the present
rule which prevents the charging OF ad-
mission fee to witness contests in the
armory.'
