GEORGETOWN ALUMNI
LAUD ADVISORY IDEA
Express Satisfaction Over Announcement At Annual
Meeting of Society of Facutys Decision to Give
Them Hand In Government of Athletics

Alumni advice will. in the future, play
a conspicuol part in the administra-
ton Of athletics az Georgetown.
After four years of trial Of n system
which placed most Of the responsibility
Of the conduct Of sport in the hands Of
the undergraduates, a change was effect
ed last night al the annual meeting Of
the Alumni Society in Ryan Hall The
Rev. Joseph Himmel, president OF the
university. in his address. brought up
the subject OF athletics, and made the
announcement that the faculty. after
mature consideration, had decided that
there should be a closer relation be-
tween the students and alumni in the
handling of sports. He said that an
advisory board would be formed. and
then made the following appointments.
Claude r Zappone, James a. o Shea,
Charles A Roach, and Richard J. Wat
klns-
The announcement brought forth from
the 200 graduates the greatest cheers
OF the evening and George f.. Hamil-
ton, president OF the alumni pledged
the support Of the whole society 70
the faculty in its efforts to place
Georgetown athletics on a most modern
scale.
The plan IS similar 20 the system that
has obtained al other universities for a
number Of wears and IS calculated 20
combine with the enthusiasm OF the
undergraduates the better Judgment and
greater foresight Of those VINO hold de-
grees. Not only is this expected 10 in
sure a more substantial scheme OF
financing the different branches OF sport
nut will guarantee a continuity Of pol
lev that was necessarily missing under
the plan OF having seniors handle ar
fairs each successive year.
The definite lines OF the new orCaui-
ZatiOn have not vet been drawn,
but Include, iu addition 90 a gen
eral supervision by the slvlsOry
board, the delegation Of one man TO have
particular charge Of one branch OF
