The swimming squad has already started work, and is practicing in the Y. M. C. A. tank four afternoons a week, and in the Brookline tank one evening a week. Coach Mann has charge of the work in Brookline. Water polo is practiced on various evenings in the Dunster pool, and is under the direction of E. H. Jose '10. It is hoped that the services of P. Withington '09 may be obtained as regular coach. The drill will not be very strenuous until after Christmas, when steady work will be begun in earnest.
A meet with Andover at Andover has been arranged for January 25, and meets with Yale at New Haven and Amherst in Cambridge will be held during February. In March, there will be a meet with Brown at Providence.
Wrestling.
Regular practice will start during the first part of this week. Sam Anderson, ex-world's middleweight champion, will again do the coaching, and will be in the Hemenway Gymnasium for several hours every afternoon to help men who desire to take up the sport.
A dual meet with Yale has been scheduled for about the middle of February. A meet with at least one other important college will be arranged later, and there will be a number of less important ones with the various associations in this vicinity. All men who desire to do so may enter in the Y. M. C. A. and New England championships. Toward the end of the season a tournament will be held to decide the University championship.
If enough men report from the Class of 1916, a Freshman team will be formed, and one or two meets arranged for it.
Gymnastics.
The practice hours for the gymnastic squad are as follows: Monday, Thursday, and Friday at 5 o'clock; Tuesday at 7.15 o'clock. Dr. Carl L. Schrader has charge of the work.
A novice meet will be held on December 16, in which Dr. Sargent offers a cup to the winner of the greatest number of points. In addition, medals or ribbons will be presented to the winners of individual events. After the Christmas holidays, nine exhibitions or meets will be held in various parts of New England. These include dual meets with Brown and Amherst. The intercollegiate championship will be contested in March
