Miss Margaret Hurley, director OF
physical education for women at the
normal, says all the baseball material
for her girls baseball team is here,
and that. she will soon have her pro-
teges out knocking the BALL over the.
lot.
It is tough proposition to sched-
ule, any games with outside teams for.
the Lurnberjacks on Saturdays. Jud-
son, however, has his boys out every
afternoon, limbering up their muscles
and developing their batting. Judson
would like to hear from Kingman,
brook and Mayer in regard to sched-
uling q series of games for the balance
OF the summer.
There is plenty of material at the
Normal for two first-class polo teams.
With speedy horses fairly plentiful in
Flagstaff we see no reason why the
normal could not develop skilled
group of dashing, nervy athletes.
1T takes more than keen eye and
a good arm to make real horseshoe
player" says Adams, who is one of
normaPs ardent devotees of ''barnyard
goff,v as it is now commonly called.
"There are enough old-timers around
the place to develop a lively interest
in the game. Of course, | do not
mean to intimate that the young peo-
Pile are excluded for this is one game
that can be enjoyed by both young
and DID," he further remarked.
The shoes are here, the pegs have
been placed, and the game is in full
sway. Go back of Taylor hall or over
to Cottage City any afternoon or just
before dusk and you viii see any num-
ber of wild-eyed enthusiasts. Watch
them play for a while. They do not
depend on luck. There is as much
science applied to this old game as
there is in playing three cushion bill
lizards.

and economics, will leave at the end
of the summer quarter to study for his
doctors degree in political science at

state of Arizona" They lie S5 miles
