YALE GYMNAsTIc ASSOCIATION.
Annual Meeting Held-Constitution
 Revised-Of1cers Elected

Annual Meeting Held-Constitution
 Revised-Offlcers Elected, The annual meeting of the Yale Gym nastic association was held last evening in the Yale gymnasium. Manager o. s, Ackley presided. The reports of the of- f1cers showed the past year to have been the most successful in the history of the association. The financial con dttion is entirely satisfactory and the university gymnastie team has made an excellent showing. This is due in great part to the persistent and conscientious work of the retiring captain, George w. Albin. The prospects last fall were anything but encouraging and most of the material was new and undeveloped Captain Albin coached the men in a very thorough manner, and an inter- collegiate championship team was the result.
 Mir Albin graduates in June, so could not be reelected captain of the team. The meeting adopted changes in it's constitution which will make 1t neces- sary for man to win first second or third place in the intercollegiate con test, or he must win first or second place in the dual meet with either liar yard, Columbia or Princeton, in order to receive the "Y. c. A." which is the insignia of the association
 The association elected L. DeSola, '03 L., of Havana, Cuba, captain for next year, and A. C. Becker '03, was elected manager. Both men are fully qualified to fill the positions to which they have been chosen
