National Rifles Making a New De- parture. -_— ROWING C:RCLES ge IN ‘The championships of the district in the various branches of indoor athletic sports will be tried for in the gymnasium of the Columbia Athletie Club. early in March. Though the matter has not been fully de- cided upon by the board of governors of the club, still Instructor Crossley and his associates are sure that the affair will be asu ultable trophies will be offered, such as silver cups. and pieces of plate, and medals as well as pennants. The Co- lumbia boys will undoubtedly score the mest points.

N nal Rifles’ New Departure. Some years ago the members of the Na- tional Rifles made some efforts to get to- gether the nucleus of a gymnasium in | thelr armory on G street, and they were successful to the extent of a billiard table and some few dumb bells. The topic has always been a live one with the Rifles, and has taken precedence over all other subjects, with the exception of the annual election’ of officers. From time to time the younger members have really made vigorous efforts to accomplish something in the athletic line, but have never us yet succeeded. But it seems likely now that a change will be effected, and many of the younger members feel certain that they are on the road to make their famous old company shine in the athletic world as well as in the social. About a week ago Schuyler Stokes got some of the men together on the lower floor and began to show thera what he knew about basket ull. Since then the game has been gain- ing favor at the same rate ft does at other institutions, and now John Cameron, Blake Miller, William Blocher, Jimmy Clipper, Fred Van Vranken, Neil’ Barry, Will Can- non and Guy Davis may be seen on the floor almost evening, with Stokes in charge. T with which to pur- chase the ne y apparatus was easily subscribed among the member: some of the boys are even talking about inctive uniform. ank Saul of the Carroll Institute came n last Thursday evening and coached and vady its members are trying their str with the rict teams, and to that end will to rec challenges from a e. hey m. nt to huyler tokes and ad to him at the Na- tional Rifle When a match ayed up being ly nsidered niten= tion of th Like this.

At the Cat Two absorbing subjects are on tap at the Young Men’s Catholic Club of Gon Colllege—how the coming election of offi- cers is going to turn out, and whether the play of the “Private Secretary” will be a success or not. The first question will be put at rest for a year at least when the election of officers shall have taken place, the first ‘Tuesday in January. Nominations have already been made for the various positions, and are as follows: For prest- dent, P. J. Walsh H. Werde; for vice president, ¥. A. W. Van th; corre sponding secretary, P, A.

Hart, librarian fogether with these ten others will be chosen, the nineteen members in all com- posing the new board of directors, About two hundred names are now on the rolis as members in good standing, but for such a good membership the club’ has been doing very poorly in athletics this winter. Their theatrical work, however, is ex- pected to in some degree repair the reputa- tion of the organization, and plans are being made to accommodate a large crowd at the play of the “Private Secretary Mr. Harvey K.

Every year there have been some men at Georgetown University who are to boat- ing inclined, and th r is no exception | to the rule. The E s have endeav- ored to foster the boating feeling at the college as much as possible, and some years ago they even presented them with a ye tom shell. T however, swept aw by the freshet, as was also a landing stage that had been built for the benefit of the students.
