r/?.4Clf ATHLETICS AT A A M.
The season for football is rapidly
drawing to a close, and in our en-
thusiastn for the most stremions
and exciting of sports, we shook!
not forget the other teams, par
ticularly the track team. The
baseball team, with the prestige
of a long list ‘of victories last
spring, will in a large measure take
'care of itadlf.4
Not so the track team which as
yet has no leader and no organiza
tion. For two years we have not
been representjed in this branch of
athletics, nnd unless we are repre
sented this year, we lose out mem
bership in the Intercollegiate Ath
letic Association. This we cannot
afford to do. ' We must have a
dents fire always in . training. In

and East training lor the
