GIRLS
TO FACE THE WORLD
Y. ". c. A. Sends Them Out
With Vigorous, Healthy Bodies

That the girls of this city are no
less enthusiastic over gymnastics than
the boys is shown by the fine at
tendance that the girls maintain at
the Y. w. c. A. gymnasium. All the
necessities that are needed to make
girl strong and healthy are at their
command at the rooms on Hungerford
Court The pool and the apparatus Of
the gymnasium are of the best that
could be secured and can easily be
compared with any other gymnasium
of its size in the country. An inspec-
ton of the water lately proved that it
was above criticism. The showers and
accommodating bath rooms are also
of a complete and sanitary nature.
1t Is the ambition Of the physical
and swimming instructor, Miss Mar
jorie Breckenridge, to turn out one of
the healthiest and best gymnastic
classes that has ever attended the Y.
w. c. A. And from the appearance
of activities at the association, at
present, it is STE to say that her am
bition will be realized. Not only the
girls from this city appreciate the ben
ef1ts that are derived from joining the
eymnastic class but girls from South
ington. Hristol and Plainville have
taken aQVhAto6O VI LILO oppOA SNAAA~S
to ioin this class and improve them
selves.
Swimming is one of the most popu-
lar sports in America. That a good
MANY girls realize this fact Is attest
ed to by the swelling Of the swimming
ranks to 100 members. In this branch
not only swimming is taught but the
| art Of life saving is also a feature that
draws the attention Of many. 1t may
be YOUR turn next to save a drowning
nerson; if you don't know how to per-
form the stunt you will have to stand
nv and watch the person drown.
An athletic league is to be started
bv the directors the first meeting OF
which will be held October S. This
league is to be for girls whose age
ranges from 16 to 20. Rewards will
be given to girls attaining records In
BASKETBALL, gymnastics. dancing,
tramping, tennis and swimming.

CHALLENGE TURNED DOWN.
Sept 26 1917

New Britain Herald, &,
Dear Sir: Kindly publish the fol-
lowing reply to the challenge in your
paper Tuesday evening regarding the
match race between Thomas j. Faux
ner and George Dillon:
George Dillon's friends will not ac-
cept the eleventh-hour challenge for
the match race between Thomas J.
Faulkner and George Dillon, which
the st. Joseph's Y. M "A. A. are
eager to have take place, and will
have to be suspended until next year.
billions friends realize that Faux
ner is in the pink of condition, and
in order to win from him, Dillon
would have to be in the same form,
which he is not at present. Further
more Dillon has given up running for
this year.
They would be pleased to arrange
match next summer and, with Dill
Ion in first class condition, we have
not the least doubt as to the out
come"

BOY SCOUT
NEWS

Troop 1.-the regular meeting OF
Troop IA was held in the Town hall
Plainville Wednesday evening with
all members present Archie Nall
fandian was elected captain of the
football team, and Adelbert Stephen
son was elected manager. Scoutmas-
ter Bonney decided that the Eagle
Patrol had won the 100 per cent.
Duty Pins and awarded them to the
members of that patrol. There was
great competition between the Wolf
Patrol and the Eagle. This system
of points has now started for next
month and the Wolf Patrol expects
to win the honors. Sidney Cowles
has completed his tests for second
class scout so we now have three
second class scouts, with all the
rest working hard to get there. New
patrol leaders were elected for the
Beaver patrol. They are: Patrol
Leader Wesley Johnson, and Assist
ant Patrol Leader Meyer Sneideman.
The Wolf Patrol has challenged the
Beaver Patrol to half mile hoop
race. Scout Archie Nalfandian chal-
lenges any scout in the troop for a
half mile race. The football team
will practice Saturday.
Troop AT the regular meeting of
Troop 9 a football team was organized
to represent the troop in the league.
The team began practicing at once
under the guidance of we'll known
football player. The outlook is good
for a successful team. Sunday, Sep
TENDER 22nd, the troop had a hike
in the woods. Supper was eaten
around roaring campfire and then
stories were told until well into the
evening.
The Scoutmasters and their assist
ants will have supper at the Y. M.
C. A. Tuesday evening October at
7:15. Many matters of Importance
are to be discussed and all Scout
Leaders are urged to be present. The
football league will open at Walnut
Hill park, October at $3.50 p. m.
The New Britain council is making
plans to do it's share in the new Lib
erty Loan drive. The Boy Scouts of
America sold nearly 100000 dollars
worth of Liberty Bonds in the first
campaign and the president has
called upon them to do the same
thing over again. Any Scout who
gets 10 or more subscriptions will be
entitled to war service emblem.
This is fine chance for the Boy
Scouts to come forward and do a
great service for the government Of
the United States and we feel sure
that the New Britain Scouts will work
hard to make this drive even more
successful than the last Full details
for this drive will be announced later.
Let me call the attention of the Scouts
to the fact that the Scout executive
gives his full time each Saturday morn
ing to teaching first aid and signalling
at the scout headquarters, 166 Main
street and all Scouts wishing to be
proficient along these lines are re-
quested to present themselves at
headquarters any Saturday morning.
A start will be made tonight to or
ganize two new troops Of Scouts at
the South Congregational church.
