PROGRAM OF WINTER SPORTS

Opportunities for Activity in Organized Athletics.--Track Work Begins Today.

The Freshman fall squad discontinued work yesterday. Early in the winter, candidates for the class crews will be called out and will work indoors in preparation for the regular spring practice. The interclass races will be held in the middle of May.

FENCING.

For some time the fencing squad has been practicing in the basement of the Gymnasium on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons under the instruction of class captains and former members of University teams. Beginning today at 3 o'clock, M. Pianelli will coach on Wednesday afternoons throughout the season. Men trying for class teams should report Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, between 4 and 6 o'clock to their class captains. An interclass tournament will be held December 21, the members of the winning team to receive cups presented by H. St. Gaudens '03. The Fencers' Club will hold three tournaments, two novice and one junior, and the University team will hold meets with Technology and other teams, and will also enter the intercollegiate meet at New York.

GYMNASTICS.

The gymnastic team is practicing regularly every day in the Gymnasium. Its first exhibition will be given just before the Christmas recess and will include, besides regular gymnastic work, indoor track events, boxing and wrestling. In January the team will hold a meet with Yale and a month later one with Amherst. Practice meets will be held with the Boston Young Men's Christian Association, with Andover, and probably with the Institute of Technology. The annual dual meet with Columbia will be held probably in February and the University team will enter the intercollegiate gymnastic meet at Princeton on March 31. Mr. Dohs is coaching the team.
