BATES GIRLS AHOY /!
Here's Your Chance to Help in
College Athletics.
Exert Your Influence and Keep the
Stars at eates.
Mass Meeting to Arouse More Enthu-
siasm in Athletics.

Lewiston. Me-. Sept. 3.-tSpecial -
y special meeting of the Athletic As
sociation was held. Monday morning
directly after chapel and the student
body and faculty We're present. The
purpose of the meeting was TO awaken
enthusiasm for athletics among the
girls and also among the large number
of boys who do not take an active
part i'll such work. Pres. Ramsdell
stated the purpose of the meeting
and called upon Coach Cults. who en-
larged upon Mrs Ramsdells remarks
and who said in addition that although
the prospects at Bates never seemed
better. from an outside view. vet. as
a matter of fact, the team is weak
ana success depends upon new and
heavier men entering the field.
Several of the professors We're called
upon Professors Jordan. HartShorn
and Clark responding. Prof. Harts-
horn expressed SarpriSe that any new
enthusiasm was needed: he thought
that after the splendid game of last
Saturday We had reasons for con-
graduating each other. Mr.. Beedy
spoke very eloquently of the past and
present condition of Bates in the
athletic arena. and urged the boys. es-
pecially the Freshmen, to get out. and
to work harder than ever. Mr.. LOthrop.
the manager. spoke along the same
line. as well as Mr. Briggs and Coach
Purington.
Pres Chase ut the close of the meet
ing announced that hereafter an as
sessment of 81 would be added to the
term bill of each student and that the
sum would go to the Athletic Asso-
citation. The dues of the \. A.. will
be proportionately decreased.
1t may not be unwise to say that the
young ladies have broad field in
which to exert their influence. OF
course it is impossible for them to take
the gridiron in person. but they may
take the field quite as effectively in
other ways. Last year, one of the best
football players Eates ever had lett
Bates 10 go to Bewdoin. 1t was said
at the time that Y. had been promised
the captaincy, this year. We cannot
say that the report was true. but he
is their captain now. However. that
is not the point. Had the young ladies
used their natural powers. we believe
that he would not have gone. This
wear. Finn '05. Bates fullback. has also
left to play on Bowdoin. 1t remains
to he seen whether or not he will be
captain. next year, when Munro
graduates These loses have weat-
ened Bates and should not be. In
part. these facts were set form IN
the mass meeting of Monday, and 1t
is hoped that hereafter the young
ladies will see that our football play
ers do not go to Bowdoin.
