Farmers Will Undertake Most Difficult List of Game.

all the schools will have relay teams en-
tered and that they will be willing TO
compete against one another seems rea-
sonable. Western High brought forth
some very capable youngsters IN Balti-

Technical to secure a quartet. which Il
should easily do. provided its men are in
the shape that is reported. Such race
will be fine feature, and will develop q
lot Of interest in the scholastic runners.
That kind OF an event will cause a great
deal more interest than will the fact that
the men are entered in the individual
events.
It seems that Georgetown cannot COM
pete in an athletic contest with the Navy
that the two teams do not mix UP in
some kind OF rough play. Yesterday the
basket ball teams met and players were
elected from both teams. The contest was
said to be exceptionally rough. the play
ers getting too much antagonism in their
work.
It was not thought that Georgetown
had any chance to win, It having done
little practicing Of late. The Blue and
Gray went well during the first half and

aged to hold down the score. but in the

miration and applause Of the audience
mostly was what the States ian would
consider ordinary in the extreme-the
catching Of an outfield fly. For this
feature the applause was distributed
more generously during practice than
while the actual game was in progress.
After dinner every oody was allowed to
follow his own bent. Small parties rode
In auto or carriages or walked through
the thronged and internationally famous
streets of Cairo. The same music and
dance which Chicago stood for in 1898
is still being inflicted upon the long-suf-
fering native and the novelty-seekinS
traveller.
On one of the busiest corners two
arabs were disgracefully pummeling
each other. while two policemen stood
nearby, seemingly oblivious to 1t all.
''Why don't those officers stop those
fellows from fighting" asked George
Wiltse Of the dragoman (guide).
'.Dey haf no care for de fighters -
answered the dragoman. Day are Of
anudder race. Dey are Bedouins. De
polisman are syrians and hopes dey kill
each udder."
