compliment was returned by Georgetown
men when Virginia appeared. The game
itself was clean. despite the fact that it
was the biggest affair Of the year for
both teams. The feeling OF friendship
between Georgetown and Virginia is
stronger at present than it has been at
any other time since the relations were
established nineteen years ago.
The Georgetown players will meet next
week TO elect a captain. AS soon as the
captain Is chosen the question of coaching
viii be definitely settled. and work on
the schedule will begin. While the ques-
ton of what team will be played on
Thanksgiving Day is not likely TO be de-
cided for some time 1t is understood that
a game will be scheduled at Georgetown
field with one of the strongest teams in
the South.
The George Washington Athletic Coun-
ell holds a regular meeting this evening
when the athletic branch will be the
most important subjects discussed. The
receipts from the Georgetown game have
always been the greatest source of reve-
nue. for George Washington, so II viii be
necessary for the Hatchetites TO work out
a scheme whereby the expenses of the
different branches of athletics can be
met. This is particularly important, as
it affects not only football, but base
ball as well.
DR.. w. F. R Phillips, chairman of the
George Washington Athletic Council re-
fused to discuss the matter when nOti-
fed Of GeOrgetOwn's action by a repre-
! sentative of The Washington Herald. He
said that unless George Washington re-
| ceived some Official notice nothing would
be given out until the matter had been
| frrI1 -.
Finances in Good shape.
! Financially, the athletics at Georgetown
are in better shape than ever. despite the
/ fact that there is no revenue derived
from the crew which costs several
/ thousand dollars each year. Several
/ times it has been suggested that rowing
be dropped. but so enthusiastic have been
the alumni. as well as the undergradu-
ates, that the crew has been continued.
and is now in position where II can be
conducted without going outside of the
athletic association for fundsA
