ATHLETICS.
The Indoor Meet.
The third annual indoor meet of the University will take place some time next month, possibly March 14, at the rink, although final arrangements have not yet been completed. The meet this year will include some events that have not before received recognition, the horizontal bars and poles, having been added. Besides there will be the three classes in boxing and wrestling, the shot put, the hitch and kick, and the standing and running high jumps. This will make twelve events in all, and quite a complete program.
In the way of prizes an innovation is promised. The donated prizes will be reserved for the field and track events, and the winners of the indoor events will recieve cups with the name and occasion engraved. There will be a first and second prize for each number, making twenty-four prizes to be offered. In order to facilitate matters, and get the new students entered in the sparing meets, the committee has appointed captains from the different schools and classes, whose duty it shall be to look
after the available men in that section of the University. The captains are: Seniors, Schroeder; Juniors, Hester; Sophomores, Guy Sipmson; Freshman, Sanderson; Law, Hogg and Foster; Medics, Outland; Pharmacy, Mason.
Realizing what an influence the girls have in University affairs and believing that their active interest in athletics would serve as an incentive to the contestants, the committee has appointed four honor captains from the ladies. Miss Allie Rohe represents the Seniors, Miss Don Bowersock, the Juniors; the Sophomore class will rally to the support of Miss Fannie Kelly, and the Freshmen will do honor to Miss. Lucy Riggs. In this way it is hoped to work up some class spirit in the spring meets. The various events will be scored by points and a handsome cup will be given to the lady captain of the class securing the greatest number of points.
Here is an opportunity not only for individual honor, but for modern chivalry to assert itself, and we trust it will meet with the hearty approval of all.
