Hockey Team to Be Formed-Rink to
Be Built.


Be Built.
For the first time in many years
Goddard is to be represented by hook
team. A statement was made TO
his effect by the school athletic coun
il this morning and action will soon
be taken towards having a skating
ink on the campus. As soon as the
weather proves favorable Coach AL
lrich, assisted by DIR. ID. c. Jarvis, viii
sue a call for skating candidates. AT
meeting OF the athletic council next
week manager of the hockey team
will be appointed and an effort viii
be made to get games with prepare
tory and high school teams. II a good
team can be developed and good
schedule arranged the sport viii un-
doubleday be continued in the future.
The first issue for the current year
Of the Record" the school paper, has
been received from the printers.
Coach AIdrich has, issued several
challenges to basketball teams about
the state in an effort to complete his
basketball schedule. Any team wish
ing games can get open dates on appli
cation to the athletic council.
The first OF a series of football talks,
which have been arranged by the ath
lctic committee, win be given at the
school sometime before the Christmas
recess. The committee has been fortu-
nate in securing the services of Nor
man Gordon, right end of the Dart
mouth varsity squad, who will explain
football from an ends point of view.
His talk viii deal mostly with the end
positions. From time TO time during
the winter months coaches and play
ers of prominent schools will give foot
ball lectures to all men interested in
this sport.
An invitation has been extended
three Goddard athletes BY the Prince
ton university athletic committee TO
attend a meeting OF that committee
at Boston sometime during the month
Of January. The purpose Of this meet
ing is to discuss the matter of having
these athletes get a clear view Of the
athletic and scholastic opportunities
offered by Princeton university. The
men who have been selected to attend
this meeting are Howard Wilson Of
George Mullen of Norwich,
Conn, and Ring Yanotti Of Shelburne,
Falls, Mass. Wilson is Goddard's .235-
pound guard and with proper coaching
would undoubtedly make good mate
rial for a college Of football in the tao
<le position. Vanotti plays the back

season by his consistent gains through

men make a favorable impression on
