The principal feature Of the University
of Pennsylvania meet is that the college
relay championships are decided in the
four-mile, each man running a mile, and
the mile, each sprinter going quarter.
1t is for this latter event that the
Georgetown men are preparing. and, al
though they will have to meet the pick
of the country, the followers of the local
college have great confidence in their
team winning one of the prizes.
Makeup of Team.
The team is composed of the same men
who defeated the representatives Of
Pennsylvania at the Georgetown indoor
meet. February %, Captain Holland,
Reilly, P. Edmonston. and Owens. This
team is capable of running the distance
within a few seconds of the record, and
will make it at least interesting for their
opponents.
Duffey at Princeton Races.
Arthur Duffey is preparing for the
Princeton games, which come off next
Saturday. He will start in the 100 yard
handicap. and while he is running we'll
and is in fine condition, ii can hardly be
expected of him to viii against fast men
with handicaps. At Philadelphia how
ever. it will be different and he expects
to win. There the event will be a 100
yard scratch special, which will bring to-
gether the fastest men in training from
all the big colleges.
Duffey VIII go to England this summer
to defend the 100-yard championship he
won last year.

Russell (captain), six; Rorke. five; 5.

crew, and fills the boat well. and is doing
good inboard work. but is not making
much effort to get speed out of its blade
work. This will come later on, says
Dempsey, and then we will get move
on u.s.
Besides the men named, there are about
twenty-five more men anxious to get in
the boat, and some have fighting chance
to make it." When the eight has been
finally decided upon, there will still de-
volve upon the coach the duty of getting
out -four to battle for intercollegiate
aquatic honors at Poughkeepsie.
All hands realize that diligence snd
earnestness are the first requisites to sue
cess, and they are working accordingly
and their coach has confidence in their
ability to do good work when the time
comes to do it.
Among the Track Men.
The track team of Georgetown Univer-
sity has begun training for the University
of Pennsylvania relay races, which are
held annually in Philadelphia. This year
the meet will be held on April 26.
This meet is next in Importance to the
intercollegiate, which takes place the lat
ter part OF May, and it means almost as
much to a colieger to win points at Phila-
delphia as it does in Mott Haven, N. Y.

to get his crew picked and put and keep
his men in condition, and he has his men

Training Table Started.
The training table has been started,
and it is a hungry, husky lot of beef and
Drawn that sits down to the meals. FROM
now on every man is expected to be on
hand unless he be excused by Dempsey
or Captain Russell. No more late hours,
no mere theaters or dances or what not.
Coach Dempsey is in earnest in this
matter, and as he has as much at stake
as his men he will insist upon 1t that
candidates for places in the boat follow
strictly the rules laid down. Last week
he followed Courtney's example with the
Cornell boys, and dropped Theideck from
the list for failure to adhere to train
ing rules and the deposed oarsman was
one of the most promising men in the
squad. Dempsey hopes the example thus
set will be a warning to the rest, as he
proposes to set down anyone who breaks
the rules.
Benefit at the Lafayette.
The only exception to the theater re-
strictfon will be made tomorrow night,
when the rowing department has bene-
fit at the Lafayette Theater. "A Midsum-
mer Nights Dream will be played by
Manager Berger's stock company, and
judging from the advance sale, the house
will be packed. This is the only method
the oarsmen have of securing the means
of defraying the expense of crew train
ing and the trip to Poughkeepsie. and they
feel encouraged in the belief that their
friends will make the benefit a great sue
cess.
Heavyweight Crew.
The weather has been cold that the
men have taken off very little weight. but
as every man in the boat now is an ath-
Iete, and in good shape, there is little
possibility of the crew being light one.
On the other hand, Georgetown will have
heavier crew than ever before, and as
the weight is all bone and muscle. there
will be no dead logGy weight to carry.
been very satisfactory to Coach Dempsey,
and he is still of the opinion that the
Blue and Gray boat will be well up near
the finish when the four miles have been
covered at Poughkeepsic.
Every afternoon the men are given
breathe a mile or so above the Three SIS
ters. and then to the Long Bridge and
back. and sometimes the distance is Gov
cred twice.
New Boat Finished.
Notwithstanding the distance covered.
the men return to the float at the boat
house not much the worse fos their trip
The new eight made by Glass, of Phil
adelphia, is finished, and will be delivered
here shortly. Dempsey says its beau

CANNOT MAKE A BATTER.
Ed Delehanty's Truism in Regard to the
Modern Ball PLAYER

Ed Delehanty said the other lay that
a batter cannot be made. There are
some men," said the big fellow, who
never could and never will hit. They
have been coached by the best people IN
the country. but still there is nothing
doing in the hitting line. No. 1t doesn
make any difference how man stands
at the plate. The more natural the po-
sition, the better. The easy, graeefui

Some Curlnnn nnnk TIiIcs.

In the sixteenth century we find the
greatest extravaganza displayed In the
titles OF books. These may be taken
as examples: "The Spiritual Snuffbox,
to Lead Devoted Souls to Christ" and
"The Spiritual Serlnga For Souls
STEPPED In Devotion" A work on
Christian charity published In 1857 is
entitled Buttons and Buttonholcs For
Believers Breeches." Another quaint
publication Is Father La Chaucie's
work entitled Bread Cooked on the
Ashes; Brought by an Angel to the
Prophet Eliglah (ElljaM to Comfort
the Dying" Another was issued with
the curious title of "The Lamp OF $.
Augustine and the Flies That Fit
Around It."
The following very attractive title
appeared in n book published at New
castle In 1905: "Some Beautiful Bis.
cults Cooked In the oven of Charity
and Put Aside For the Fowls of the
Church, the Sparrows Of the Spirit and
