NeWsy Hilltop Notes.

Capt. Bill Carrfgan was out in rum
ming toys yesterday afternoon for the
first time of the present year. He
shows no effect whatever of the injury
paign and looks fit to duplicate last
seasons success. Carrigan INDUCED in
q short workout, being content with
limbering up and practicing a few starts
under Coach Smiths instructions.
Brewer, of the law department, was
also out for his initial practice. In last
years Georgetown games Brewer, run
ming unattached, captured first place
IN the flfty-yard novice dash, and with
the proper coaching Is expected to i'm
prove his former time considerably. He
will undoubtedly prove to be a capable
man to assist Carrigan and Eller in
scoring points in the short distances.
The loss Of Cogan ia certain to be felt
by the Blue and Gray basketball team,
for the baseball captain had just
reached his top form when he resigned.
Cogan has for the past three seasons
played in the majority of the games.
as being one of the best forwards in
South Atlantic basketball. With Mar
tin, the retired captain, and Cogan in
the game. Georgetown was represented
by q wonderful pair of forwards, and
the loss of both men before the first
contest is decided shock to the
chances for banner year on the Hill
top floor.
Charles Cass, a member OF the 1915
class, reported to Coach Smith yester-
day as q candidate for the distance
runs. The freshman, when member of
the Salem (Mass.) High School squad,
made quite a reputation for himself, in
the mile run. He Is rather heavy. but
possesses a good stride, and may de-
velop into a point winner.
Mulligan, q veteran of the last two
track seasons. appeared for training
yesterday in good shape. He will prob
ably be entered In the quarter and half
mile events,
John Martin, who captained the 1909
1910 track aggregation, assisted Smith
in sending the candidates through their
preliminary PAGES yesterday. Martin is
counted on to run again this year, al
though he will most likely take up the
shorter dashes rather than continuing
as q quarter miller
McGrath, of last seasons Prep team,
was on hand for work yesterday, TAX
ing several laps before leaving the
track. He was on the football squad
and accordingly reports in good condi-
ton.
Captain Childs had his Prep candi-
Ter continues to attract the atteystton OF
the coaches, and gives every promise
of developing into good man.
John Mattison's, brother is out for Il
Prep team. If he can follow in t
Footsteps of his brother, the young
Madison will be valuable acquisif N
to the embryo collegians. One thing
particularly noticeable in the young
ster's work is the earnestness with
which he goes into the sport
Although the "G's" have been award
ed, the election of football captain for
1912 will not be held until tomorrow, i'm
mediately following the taking of the
picture. Whoever is elected will have
as a nucleus of next seasons aggrega-
ton ten letter men, as we'll as eight
cen of those who were given the right
of wearing their class numerals. with
this group OF veterans on the squad
there seems to be little cause to believe
that the Blue and Gray team OF next
fall will not be capable of equaling the
records made by the two championship
aggregations of Capt. Dap" Daley.
