ATHLETES
MUST TAKE PLEDGE
Candidates for Teams Will Be
Compelled to Abstain From
Certain Practices.

President John Langan gave out a
notice yesterday after a meeting of the
executive body which should prove to be
one of the best things that the board
has taken action on for a long time. and
that is the necessity of training by every
man who is out for team representing
Georgetown.
The board has taken up this matter
and has been bordering over it for a
long time, but not till yesterday was it
finally given out that a man who is out
for any athletic team AT the hilltop must
pledge himself to train faithfully.
That this action will cause comment
on all sides goes without saying. The
men have no regular training table or
training quarters as other schools en-
ioy. and they will argue that it is impos-
sible to train under such conditions.
Still, President Langan claims that they
will be dismissed from the squad II they
do not abide by their pledge to abstain
from things that would In any way re-
tard their work.
1t is certain that during the past fall
the foot ball men did not train as faith
fully as they should The men in charge
overlooked a great many things that
would not be overlooked in the present
day plans.
President Langan will have full charge
of athletics until June. and he is going
to see to it that the men take good
care Of themselves or quit. AT the pres
ent time it is understood that several
of the best men on the track squad are
not taking the best care of themselves.
and they have been warned by President
Langan. On the first report that he hears
of any of these men breaking any Of the
rules given them they will be dismissed
from the squad
Jimmy Walsh. the newly appointed
graduate manager. who will be in charge
after next June. is a strong believer in
the necessity Of the training of the men.
Walsh will surely carry out the action
taken by the board yesterday.

bis mark. Tor he has expressed the
opinion that on July III. 1891. ON the

1afa. IN Mexico. there will be- b great
gathering of astronomers ana other
scientists. possibly 4 greater gathering
than any q Of the sort ever taking
place before that time. He has deter
mined that on that date there will be
the finest eclipse Of the sun ever known
since eclipses we're. first predicted With
certainty. and these PEAKS will be the
choicest grind stand seats for the per-
Torrance.
AS eclipses are the only opportunities
for studying certain qualities Of the
u and sunlight and as the energy
from the sun. which supports all life
on earth. is arousing more and more
study because Of the possibilities for
human progress 1t offers. he feels Ger.
tain That in 1891 there will be even
more interest in eclipses than there is
at present.
One reason why 1t will be a remark
able eclipse is that it will be total for
minutes 10 seconds. The longest
one ever known was 6 minutes 20 sec
onds. while the longest n that can
ever happen a only be I minutes ~
seconds ,
Another advantage is that the sun
will be directly overhead. SO that there
will be the least possible amount Of in
