ATHLETIC CLUB NOTES
BY Eben WheatIey.

The Phoebe Athletic club was hon.
ored with visit from the Mothers
club on Friday. the 22nd We were
delighted to see such goodly NUM-
Der present and hope they enjoyed
themselves during the evening.
The visit was not entirely unex-
pected, but as to the exact time we
were perfectly unaware, so therefore,
we had but short time to prepare
our program with which to enter
tain the visitors.
The ladies did not visit the club
merely for the pleasure of seeing the
boys perform the athletic stunts
which they have learned since the or
ganization of the club; they came
with their arms laden with magazines
and periodicals Of all sorts, such as
are suitable for an athletic club, a so
to reveal to the members the inter-
est which they take in their commend
able enterprise.
The program of the evening con-
sisted chiefly Of boxing and wrestling.
The main boxing bout being finish
fight between AL Freedman and Dan
Lloyd for the title of featherweight
championship of the club.
The first two rounds were slow. but
in the third round Lloyd was knocked
down and took the count Of eight.
Freedman thinking he was down and
out, stood with his hands by his side
grinning, but Lloyd was up when the
refree said eight, and before Freed
man could recover his guard had land
Cd two sledge-hammer blows; one to
/, the .'lunch-basket" and the other to
the jaw and the fight was over.
/ The two preliminaries between
! Franks and Price, Lynch and Perkins
were very interesting, all of the boys
showing class. The next on the pro
gram was two wrestling matches
between Franks and Lynch and Lloyt
and Price; Franks throwing his mar
with full Nelson after six min
utes hard wrestling. Lloyd throwing
Price after % minutes wrestling. Will
a scissors hold. This with rope jump
ing and bag punching, also few
stunts on the mat and horizonta
bar completed the program.
Remember, there is program
every Friday evening. Come ou
and enjoy yourselves. You're wei
! come.
