existence. has been maintained
wholly by memberships and personal
subscriptions. and has cared for

Learn to SWIM
Y. W. A. Slogan
For This Week

learn to swim before vacation" is
the slogan chosen for a "learn to swim
week" which will begin tomorrow at the
swimming pool of the West Side Young
Women's Christian Association, Fifth
eth Street and Tenth Avenue. George
II. Corsan, a prominent teacher of
swimming, who says everybody can
learn to swim and can prove it, has
been selected as the instructor. The
series includes three lessons, and these
may be taken mornings, afternoons or
evenings, during the week of March 81
to April 5.
zone reason many women find it
hard to swim is that they are not
using the right stroke" asserts Miss
Marjorie Breckenridge, who Is in
charge of the West Side Y. W. G. A.
pool. "Thin girls find it almost i'm
possible to learn the back stroke,
while stout ones master it in one les
son. The breast stroke, which Is com
monty taught, is the hardest one of
ALL The side stroke is the best for
the tall, slender girl.
"All women should be not only able
to take care of themselves in the
water, but equal to rescuing 9TH
era Life saving is woman's normal
work nowadays--saving the lives of
wounded men, of persons stricken in
epidemics, of little children. Surely
she ought to be able to meet any
emergency in the water as we'll as
on land. One Of the first duties Of
every woman is to learn to swim"

Harvard Football
Men Will Discuss
'l9Plans Tomorrow

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, March Ocean
didates for the Harvard football team
will meet Monday evening in the tro-
ply room of the union, where the plans
for spring and fall practice will be out
lined. Tuesday afternoon the spring
work will start and continue for three
weeks.
The speakers at Monday nights meet
ing will probably include former head
coach Percy Haughton, Eddie Casey
and Bill Snow, of the 1916 eleven. The
II. A. A. hasn't announced who will be
in charge of spring practice, but If
Haughton is to coach next fall he will
select the man.
The II. A. A. and the Harvard i'm
pressario are still dickering, but the
business proposition which Haughton
has appeals to him nightly. In case
Percy turns down all Harvard offers, ir-
respective of inducements, Lathrop
Wilmington, who is on his way home
from France, will be asked to act as
head coach. Wilmington captained the
1910 eleven, and played the line. He is
an attorney, and was commissioned in
the chemical service.
Walter H. Trumbull, who played a
tackle on Charley Brickley's eleven,
raight be considered as Haughton's
successor. and DR.. Parmenter is an
outside choice. 1t is understood that
Leo Leary, who served as field coach
IN 1916, has no desire to take the
reins this fall, but will offer his SER
vices to whoever is in the saddle.

anticipation.
Norman Buck, the former Illinois

been improving steadily and he swan
100 yards last week in 5645 seconds,

De La Sale Institute Gets
Second Place and Man
ual Training Third

The track team of De Witt Clinton
High School repeated its success of
last year by taking the point prize
in the annual indoor track and field
games of the Princeton Club of New
York, which we're held at the 22d Regi-
ment Armory yesterday afternoon. The
West Side boys scored a total of 80
points. Two points behind came De
L. Sale Institute, while Manual Train
ing, with t8, and Poly Prep, with 13,
took the two next positions.
Owing to several protests being filed
the prizes won by Eddie Hosmer, of
De La Sale Institute, were held up
pending q decision by the schoolboy
officials. Hosmer completes for the
Glencoe Athletic Club in open events,
and several teachers maintained that
he should not be permitted to repre-
sent his school.
Hosmer captured the 220-yard in
easy fashion in 26 1-5 seconds, while
he finished second in the 100-yard run
for seniors. He also was responsible
for his teams victory in the one
mile relay race, in which he ran anchor
for his school.
A serious injury to Sam Galburt, of
Morris High School, who had to be
taken to st. Lawrence Hospital, marred
the meet. While competing in the trial
heats of the 10O-yard dash for seniors
Galburt, after crossing the finishing
line, smashed into d glass door. In
attempting to ward off injury he
placed his hands in front Of his face,
thereby cutting an artery in his left
arm and also suffering cuts on the
head and arms.
In the one-mile run Albert Tracey,
Of Flushing, dashed in front of Mar
vim Rick, of Erasmus Hall, on the final
lap to outsprint him to the finish line
by ] yard.
