GEORGETOWN TRACK
CANDIDATES WILL
REPORT TUESDAY
Davis, Gibbs, and Vlyman
Are Among Those Who
Will Report.

Track candidates at Georgetown will
be ordered to report for their initial
workout on Tuesday, December 6, ac-
cording to the latest plans of Captain
Carr1gan and Manager Kingsley Of the
Blue and Gray outfit. Undoubtedly
Carrigan's call will be responded to by
the majority of the speed artists I'M the
dinerent branches of. the university, and
II such is the case there il every reason
to believe that this season will be q
banner year for Hilltoppers on the cin-
der paths.
In Carrigan the track squad will have
leader that is admitted by local de-
votees as being well able to infuse, the
whirlwind spirit into his men, for he IL
himself one Of the hardest workers ever
seen In any branch of sport on the Hill
top. On the gridiron as well as on the
track Carrigan is always full of life,
putting the best he has in him into
every effort. Last year he entered the
Georgetown games practically unknown
sn the cinder paths, but after the last
event had been run Carrigan's name
was on the lips of all the crowd, He
had won more points than any other In
dividual entered in the meet. having
finished first in both the open and inter-
collegian fifty-yard dashes. "a
Carrigan is anxious to have the squad
begin their preliminary work as soon
as possible. for the first meet in which
the Blue and Gray are to be represented
is the National Junior Championship
sprints, which the New York Athletic
Club Is to hold In the Metropolis on
December 26. 1t has been practically
decided that Carrigan, Campazzi and
Eller will be entered in these games and
II may be that some newcomers will
show the form which will warrant their
entrance in the holiday speed carnival.
In these games are always to be found
the pick Of college track artists. and IL
the Blue and Gray can make a good
showing the stock of the Hilltoppers
will receive a big boost.
AS a nucleus for the 1912 aggregation
Captain Carrigan will have such Stars
as Chapman. Mulligan, Davis. Gibbs.
Vlymen, Mulligan. Martin and Cam
pazzi. Davis. Gibbs. and Martin we're
members of last years relay but they
will have to show better form than they
exhibited In their championship race
with Virginia last March, II they are to
represent the West Enders this year.
In addition to these men 1t is rumored
that Tom Smith. captain of the 1911
will be remembered that Smith was se-
riously injured in taking one offs the
hurdles at the Johns Hopkins meet liast
February, and this injury will prevent
him from competing in the hurdle races
this year. However. he expects to be
able to negotiate the dashes in fast
time.
For the weight events there will be
plenty of good material as Barriscello,
Lamberton, Eller, Doherty and Lynch
are all experienced men capable ofrput-
ting the sixteen-pound shot forty feet
or better. Lamberton and Doherty are
new men. but in recent trials they have
demonstrated their ability and aceord-
ingly they are now being counted ON to
win points for their team in this win
ter's contests. Lynch will also be en-
tered in the high jump, while Costello.
the great varsity half-back will be
found In the pole vault. q
Because of the reticence of those in
charge of track affairs 1t is impossible
to get official word concerning this
years coach, although 1t seems likely
that Bill Foley will again edirectl the
training steps of the Blue and Gray
track team. Whoever coaches the
Georgetown team Of this year win hnd
the position fairly easy. because OF the
ability and experience of the material
in the track squad Of 1872.
