1t could be Of no benefit to the depart
ment. But II one was held In the fall,
thus getting in some outdoor work before
the indoor season opened, there is no
denying that 1t would be a great aid to
the cinder path coach in getting line on
his material. For this reason such
meet may be expected to come off some
time next October
Base ball is the only sport which will
not follow the new plan. because OF OBJ
right at the beginning Of good playing
weather is alone sufficient cause for
spreading the class games throughout

every team will meet every other team.

the Stenographers see At to dispute the
embryo collegians claim to the interscho-
lastic championship of the District. The
reason given by the Props for disbanding
this early is that from now on two Of
their best men will be kept busy by duties
on the track team. These two are Bren-
nan and Wieser, the first being captain of
the goal tossers and the latter leader Of
the relay quartet.
The season Just closed was very sue
cessful as far as winning games was con-
cerned. but on account Of a Discrimination
on the part Of local quints to meet the
lads across the creek the schedule was
hardly as large as 1t should have been.
Seven games were played, all OF which
were victories. This does not include a

Props by only two points.
Coach Joyce Is to be congratulated on
the excellent material he developed. Man
ager Fraunheim's work as head of the

DATES ANNOUNCED.
Georgetown Interclass and Interde-
partmental Leagues to Have Series.

Georgetown Interclass and Interde-
partmental Leagues to Have Series.
Manager Stuart OF the Georgetown var
sity base ball team yesterday made public
the dates for the interclass and interde-
partmental games for the coming season
The class contests on the diamond have
always proven most interesting but this is
the first time in long while that a series
has been arranged between the different
departments. The rivalry which was Gre
ated by the college law foot ball battle
last fall has, however. caused the inter-
school league to be formed.
Judging from the success Of the class
games in other branches OF sport this
year there is little doubt but that the
base ball league will have a most inter-
esting existence. There is a growing ten
dency at the hilltop school to have a reg
ular class series OF contests in all
branches of sport for about two weeks
before the start of each season. In this
way II Is thought that more candidates
can be gotten out for the varsity teams
The year now passing has in a great
many ways been q boomer for this prof.
ect. and unless there Ii big change in
opinion next year will be even more Of a
booster. 1t Is proposed to have class foot
ball games for two weeks before the regu-

FREsHIEs VS.. VARSITY.
Winners Of Interclass Series After
Big Honors.

Tomorrow morning in Ryan gymna SUM
the Georgetown freshman basket ball
quint will clash with the Blue and Gray
varsity for two twenty minute halves.
The game is the result Of an argument
over whether the first-year men could
hold the big bunch to a low score. In
the interclass series. which were recently
held. the plebes easily walked away with
the championship, winning every game
they played. The form shown by the men
in these contests was excellent and at
tracted considerable attention from the
spectators. Then the dispute arose which
will not be settled until after the battle
tomorrow.
The 1912 lineup will composed of FIVE
of those who took part in the class games.
Lamey. a member of last years prep
varsity leader. Kingsley and Cogan.
both ex-stars of the hilltop colts. will
have the forward positions. In which they
will be guarded by the Collifower
brothers. billie" Sitterding and tom"
greatly this winter will constitute the
freshman guarding field. 1t will be up to
them to take care of Schlosser and Cog
gin of the big bunch
between the two followings Of the con-
tending quints and. while the first year
supporters do not expect victory. yet
they feel confident that their five can
make it warm for Capt Rice's aggrega-
ton. Prof. Joyce will referee and it is
his intention to kill in the bud any rough
ness that may creep in.
This battle will be the varsity's last
try-out before the Fordham game, which
comes off Monday night. A couple of
skirmishes at Carroll Institute have shown
that the Blue and Gray team is working
at it's best, so that there can be but little
doubt concerning Georgetown's chances
against their ancient rivals from New
York.

eight was dubbed by critics as the
"greenest, lightest and tallest bunch" on
the river, and was the one best bet for
last place. But notwithstanding all this.
they rowed with the do-and-die spirit of
Georgetown, and were rewarded by cross
ing the line in front Of Wisconsin, Penn
sylvania and Columbia.
The following summer. 1903, Russell
coached the Arundel Boat Club Of Balti-
more. The next year he took charge of
the Richmond oarsmen. remaining with
them until the fail Of 1907, when he was
called upon to take charge Of the crew
work as coach of the Blue and Gray he
did excellent work. but. like Dempsey the
year before and Vail the year after. he
was handicapped by a lack Of material.
He was graduated from the Georgetown
Medical School last June and is at pres
ent an inferno in Providence Hospital.
1t Is his intention. however, to give up
this position at the hospital In order to
props and freshmen in shape for their
races. He realizes how much depends on
the success of the youngsters, since their
winning at Philadelphia-if they do-win
probably be the means of reviving the in
terest Of the Almuni in aquatics, and
Russell Is going to leave no stone I'M
turned that might help them to get into
tip-top condition.
At present there are about twenty men
trying for the 1912 boat and almost as
of the former and Capt. Ryan of the lat
ter have kept the candidates at hard work
up to now, with the result that they will
be in fairly good shape when Russell
takes hold of them. AS mentioned before,
it will be some little time before they
go on the water. probably not until after
inauguration.
Now that everything has been arranged
for certain in regard to training the men,
the managers will Immediately go to work
on their schedules. The two boats will
surely be seen at the American Henley in
Philadelphia May % and the freshmen
and seniors are to row against each other
on the Potomac April 3. The props are
negotiating with the Navy plebes for
race at Annapolis about May 1, and with
Central High of Philadelphia for match
here about a week earlier. The Navy is
also anxious to get the hilltop first year
men for a race on the Severn against their
second varsity. Just what will be done
in the matter cannot be decided until word
is received from the Georgetown faculty
directors in regard to trips. Races will
also be arranged with the Potomacs.
The old Langley ark has been put into
paign. The old boat racks have been re-
placed by new ones and the float run has
been repaired. All Of the shells are in
good condition and will not require a
great deal Of fixing before their initial
launching. The Robert Collier is still
without an engine. 1t was pulled inside
the boat house during the winter end
given new dress of paint SO that when a
motor is finally secured there will be no
delay In putting the launch into COM
mission.

BASE BALL DEAL OFF.
Pittsburg and St. Louis Fail to Agree

here yesterday that the proposed deal
between the st. Louis Cardinals and the
Pittsburg club whereby Barney Dreyfuss

has and unless he should be able to pull
trade that would give him by far the
best OF it he will not let them go.
Dreyfuss and Bresnahan got together
at Chicago and Dreyfuss boldly declared
that he desires to make a trade for
Byrne and Konetchy. but when 1t came
to q point Of finding what he had to
offer in exchange the Cardinals manager
learned that Dreyfuss was willing to
give up Barbeau. Allen, Stark and three
young players. This did not satisfy
Bresnahan at all. although he would
like to get Barbeau. and he immediately
called off the proposition.

and hence it is little surprising that he
landed it. He is to take charge Mon
day. when the men will work on the
machines, continuing indoor training for
a short time before Drawing the cold

recting the Colts, Russell will also watch

the Blue and Gray will have two good
crews on the water this season..
The newly selected director is an old
Georgetown oarsman, having both cap
tanned and coached Blue and Gray varsi-
ties of past years. In 1902 he both
rowed No. q on the first crew and led
the eight which defeated Annapolis. but
came last at Poughkeepsie. He was re-
elected captain. and the following year
got together the aggregation which beat
Annapolis again and came second only
to Cornell on the Hudson, the best that
the local institution has ever done. The

surprises of rowing history since the

Of the different classes. These anairs

did very little toward the development OF
the varsity. Many of the men who man
ned the boats were base ball or track
candidates and hence could not be used
in the spring Again, for the past two
years no coach has directed the training.
So 1t is that after taking all these points
into consideration 1t has been almost
practically decided to hold the regatta
another year in the spring.
With track 1t is the other way. For
long time no interclass outdoor meet has
been held because 1t has always been
