CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY has decided
~ that, times being what they are, it
had better curtail its tntercollegi-
ate athletic activities for the remainder
of the school year. 1t has announced
that all sports schedules excepting that
for basket bali will be abandoned tenn
porarily. However, the Brooklanders
will maintain its present program in
physical education and intramural &C.
tivities," states Dutch Bergman. direc-
tor of athletics.
The move really means the elimina-
tion Of boxing and track from the Car
dinals' intercollegiate program for the
time being. In no other sports have
the Brooklanders been active in Winter
and Spring outside their walls. Boxing
can not be made to pay in the District
under the law and though Catholic Uni
versityis annual indoor track and field
meet had become major attraction in
this branch of athletics hereabouts, ia
cilities at Brookland are too limited to
have made it financially profitable.
Catholic University, like other insti-
tutions, had expected returns from its
1ast foot ball season to be large enough
to enable it to carry on in. other sports.
However, despite one of the best elevens
in its history, C. U. did not profit.
Hence, the temporary curtailment of
activities.
