There are several criticisms to be made upon the first winter meeting of the Athletic Association. In the first place the meeting was rather too long, even for the patience of enthusiasts. The air in the gymnasium gets pretty bad after being drawn upon for three or four consecutive hours. The sparring was good, although there was more slugging at times then should characterize a friendly bout between gentlemen. The wrestling was not as good as we have seen it, and there was a little too much of it. However, the meeting was, on the whole, a success, and the management of the H. A. A. is certainly to be congratulated on its energy in getting so many entries for the events.
