Mcbride may manage the Minneapolis
team next year was news to Griff.
The manager was also on the trail
OF several players for next year, but
refused to divulge his search or the
names OF the players he is angling for.
One or two experienced men are ex-
pected to be found in the lineup who
were not here last season.
All baseball men are keeping quiet

is known, and IL will be February be-
fore any kind of deals will be put

TRACK ATHLETICS SEEM

The indoor track season appears to
George Washington come forward
with announcements of their usual
annual meets and unless the Johns
Hopkins University gives some def-
mite information about the annual
games held in the Fifth Regiment
armory in Baltimore every winter.
There has been Intimation at
GeorgetoYn that the annual affa'r at
Convention Hall will be held this
year as usual. The Georgetown au-
thorities have not fully made up their
minds as to whether the meet will be
held.
All sports were cancelled at the in
stitutions here last spring. This fall
Georgetown decided to play football,
and has consented to allow baseball.
basketball, and track, but whether
this includes the staging of the regu-
lar indoor track meet is not known
at this time.
Activities Cut Down.
The decision OF George Washington
to call OF football and the subsequent
allowing Of an Informal basketball
team seems to Indicate that the
HAtchetites will cut down activities
as far as possible.
Catholic University and the Univer-
sity OF Virginia are going to have
their track teams this year, accord
ing to reports, but no intimation is
made as yet that the George Wash
ington runners will be out this
winter.
The Naval Academy will have its
