BARRETT A CANDIDATE.
VIII Oppose Ryan for Football As
sIstant at Georgetown.

At meeting of the freshmen class
Yesterday at Georgetown, Edmond L.
Barrett was chosen as the candidate to
represent that class in the annual cleo
ton for the assistant managership of
football for the season of 10. Barrett is
newcomer at Georgetown. having en-
tered the freshman class at the opening
of the present term. He halls from the
Loyola Prep School. New York City,
where, during his entire course he was
one of the most prominent athletes of
his school. In his time he was captain
Of both football and baseball, a great
asset to the basketball team, and u
pole-vaulter of more than average ability.
Barrett deserves a world of credit by
proving himself equal to the task of win
ming the nomination on account of the
opposition which generally handicaps a
new man. But from the outset he has
proceeded TO establish himself as one of
the most popular and prominent men,
bers of the first year men.
He will be opposed by Frank Ryan, of
the sophomore class. Frank is a worthy
opponent, and the coming election is
bound to be an interesting one. Ryan
is one of the most popular men at the
hilltop school, and is only one of George
towns most prominent athletes, having
played right field on the team last spring.
The election will take place some time
during the early part of next week.

was an enthusiastic dinner party at
the Great Northern hotel Monday
evening given by the members of the
committees in charge of the next con-
test to be waged by the members for
an additional membership to the club.
The meeting was enthusiastic. due to
the fact that not only was the men,
hership matter discussed hut several
other suggestions were made and en-
tered into with a spirit that may mean
ultimate triumph making the dinner
party far from a failure.
The matter of securing members was
the main theme after the guests had
partaken of a bountiful repast at ta-
bles set aside for them.
The plan Is to reach the 300 mark
by January 1 and the committees will
work to this enc. Besides eighty-fve
business men which the new commit
tees propose to secure, twenty-five
farmers and as many travelling men.
1t is hoped, will become members of
the club. which will bring the member.
ship up to the desired mark.
The contest will be worked on a
somewhat different basis than the pre-
vious one and instead Of being confin-
ed to one day as was the case before,
1t will continue until January 1. when
an open house will be held for the re-
