GEORGETOWN TO SEND MEN.
Track Squad Will Take Place in
Baltimore Games.

Manager McNuty of the Georgetown
University track team has entered his
full squad. with the exception OF six men.
in the JOINT indoor meet of Johns Hopkins
University and the 9Th Regiment Ath-
letic Association at Baltimore a week
from tomorrow night. The other six men
will go to the Columbia games at New
York, where the relay team will perform
against one of the quartets of the big
eastern colleges, while a couple OF the
speed artists will take part in the indi-
vidual events.
The entering of so many in the Balti-
more games will prove a big boost for the
management of that meet, especially as 1t
has been a long time since Georgetown
has shown SO much interest in track attn
letics as It has this year. All of the
be sent over, and few of the sprinters.
1t is probable that Beary and Smith. the
former a Splinter and the latter a hurdler,
will be taken to New York.
The final picking of the relay four was
announced by Coach Bill Foley yesterday.
Capt Martin, Brennan. Gross and Multi
gan are the lucky ones who have been
designated to clash with Virginia Satur-
day night, and although three of them
are practically novices, yet those who
have seen them in action say that the
team is the fastest that has represented
the Hilltop school in three winters. AS
all of this lineup will be eligible another
year, it augurs we'll for a crack aggrega-
ton to carry through the next indoor
campaign.

NAY TAKE UP FENCING.
Georgetown Anxious to Renew
Activities in Sport.

There has been a decided tendency at
Georgetown University during the past
month to revive the fencing club. which
previous to 1905 was one of the main as
sociations of the school, and which an
nuaily came into the lmelight by reason
of victories over many of the big col
leges of the country. So great has late
interest become in the sport that almost
daily many bouts take place in the room
set aside for the purpose in Ryan gym
nasium, and those interested in it have
become so enthusiastic that the forming
of a regular club seems only a matter of
time.
Two members of the faculty are adopts
at handling. the foils and they have been
teaching many OF the students the art
during the past winter. Among those
who have taken up the sport are many
prominent athletes of the school, whose
tive club. J. Ennis McQuail a foot ball
player and oarsman. has so far advanced
in the sport that he is prominently men,
toned for the leadership OF a team an
other winter. Others who have been
active In the same department are Fraun-
HEINZ Needham. Milburn. John Murray
Power, Graham and Fitzgerald.
The equipment for fencing at George
town at present is Of the highest type OF
perfection, so that no difficulties will be
encountered in this direction. A large
room in Ryan gymnasium has been con-
structed especially for this branch OF
activity, having a cork floor and windows
by the university authorities, as have also
been masks and gloves. so that there
seems to be nothing wanting to further
the popularity OF the sport.
