the upper Classmen. and now that 1t Is
assured that the midshipmen Will have
at least one crew in the intercollegiate
regatta at Poughkeepsie next year
there is an UNPRECEDENTED amount OF
rowing enthusiasm. There seems nc
doubt that the number OF candidates
for the crews will be double that OF
last year.
Members Of the new fourth class
are being encouraged by the upper

cause of the possibility of the Navy

business interests.
II am tired of the abuse and vilifca-
tion,' says Hanlon, chat a man Is sub

In taking this step Hanlon gives up
n S12,000-a-year contract he has with
the Cincinnati Club that still has an
other year to run. President Garry
Hermann, of the Cincinnati Club,
wants Hanlon to remain as manager
next year, and up to date has refused
to follow Hanlon's suggestion to name
his successor at once, so that the new
manager can become acquainted with
his players before the opening of next
season.
Ned Hanlon has been in baseball
since 1877 AS player he was one of
the best, and was considered the best
! base-runnerV in the National League in
the eighties. He played with the AL

1892 he. became the manager of the
Baltimore club, and organized the
| famous Orioles. pennant winners of
1894, 1895 and 1896. Boston won the
