FOLEY TO INSIST
ON STRICT DIET
Georgetown's Track Team
Must Train This Year.

Coach Bill Foley, of the Georgetown
track team. laid down the law to his
men Yesterday morning. First, he stated
that strict diet training was to be insisted
on, no pastry or other such nicctics being
permitted Then. he insisted that all men
must report every day. or else present d
very good excuse. Assistant Manager
Kingsley is to keep the names of each
man for each day. Foleys reasoning is
that since the chances for Blue and
Gray triumph were never brighter. they
should not be destroyed through lack of
spirit or discipline.
The track teams first appearance will
be in Baltimore. just three weeks off.
Here the entire squad will be taken with
the endeavor of capturing the meet. In
cidentally, all candidates for the relay
four will be entered in the AN-yard open
Those four who show up strongest will
most likely be chosen to represent the
school against Virginia. 4 pretty coed
line will be gained on the men then for
they will be in actual competition. which
is decidedly different from ordinary
training contests.
The squad was augmented yesterday
by the appearance Of some long distance
men from the law school, The number
of those actually engaged in daily train
ing is about forty. This includes only
runners. 1t was decided also to have the
weight men practice down at the medical
school. 1t is coinCident that the five
or six weight candidates are medical men,
so this was deemed the wiSest policy, as
they hardly have the spare time to jour
ney up to the Hilltop every afternoon.

The Technical baseball squad has OBJ

will be notified to report the first week
in February. and some good talent is
expected to show up for the first prac-

novice at the running game.
Black is another man whom the
business track team bases their hopes
in the half mile. Black is a newcomer
in tho running game. and should he cap
turC the half mile in the spring, BuSi-
ness would have good chanC" of win
ming the meet. as they are strong in the
dashes but weak in the long distance
events.
The drill hall at Western has been
obtained by Manager Mc.Ardlc. of the
baseball team. for the pitchers and
ca tCherS to practice during the cold
time anything OF this sort has been tried.
In past seasons the twirlers and receiv-
ers had to wait until warm weather be-
fore they could work out.

Were sending it good distance The
pole vaulters have not been called out
as vet. but will be on hand for practice
in the near future. Coach Foley has
everything ready for them to start work
when the weather grows warmer.
Central will have to fight hard for its
track laurels this year, as all the other
schools have one extra good man in each
event. This years spring meet should
prove most interesting. as all the schools
realize they have a chance to capture
the track title, and a good fight will be
witnessed between all the teams. Cen
trail has held the title for long time.

BASEBALL NOTES
rAND COMMENT.

1t is said that Dick Egan is in line for
the captaincy of the Cincinnati Reds.
Stanley Robson. of the Cardinals, has
asked the new owners of the Browns for
q long contract to play his team during
the spring and fall seasons.
In winter there are always all sorts of
suggestions for changes in the rules. but
in summer when the game is on. every
body seems to be pretty well satisfied.
Barney Dreyfuss has been after Pitcher
Walter Maggie for two years. and has
finally landed him. He tried to draft
the man in 1909. but missed out. He
tried to land him again by the draft last
fall. but failed, and now he has come
across with sufficient coin to make Owner
Henry Barry. of tire Los Angeles team,
to let go Of him.
Because he reaches out in all directions
for players. rival managers call Connie
Mack the octopus" The secret Of
Mack's control over his men has been
discovered. Mack is the one manager
who has mastered himself His self
control is remarkable. This fine Chris
tian gentleman does not have to rave
and rant at his players to get results.
His quiet methods commend him to all
good sportsmen.
It's very, seldom that McGraw's judg-
ment of ball players goes wrong. AS
Willie Keller says, he is corker. Take
the case of Fred Merkle. who failed to
touch second in 1905, which lost the PEN
nant to the Giants. Another manager;
would probably have put the iron ball
on Merkle. But not with McGraw. He
figured that he was good ball player.
and never held his error against him.
Merkle looks like one of the best first
sackers developed in the big league in
some time. Have to hand IL to McGraw
for his judgment.

By "IEN" COLLINS.

The chief topic of conversation among
the local bowlers during the coming week
will center upon the City Association S
tournament which starts next Monday
night on the Palace alleys. Present indi-
cations point to the biggest and grandest
tourney ever held under the auspices OF
the local organization, and the officials
are predicting an entry list in the five
men event of no less than forty teams.
That the split which occurred at the
beginning of the season would to GER
tain extent tend to put damper on this
biggest of Washington's bowling events
was the prevailing rumor up TO a. week
ago, but President Chase has allayed all
fears of those who were on the anxious
scat by coming out and emphatically
saying that no favorS or concessions will
be shown either side. Some of the bowl
ers had been led to believe that their
entries would have been as welcome as q
death warrant and had made no move
whatever toward sending in their names.
But during the past week Secretary
Myers has been flooded with applications
for membership in the City Association.
This alone goes to show that any doubts
which a few may have had about get
ting square deal have been disposed of
and the tournament will be run off without
a hitch.
All that remain to make the coming
event the banner one of all others is that
the men themselves show the proper
spirit by going into the tournament. leav-
ing all differences behind and a deter
mination to treat others in a manner
that will show no bad feeling on their
part
