The Executive Board of the Athletic Association, As a locomotive requires an engineer to put the train in motion and regulate its speed, as a ship needs a rudder to steer it on its course and keep it from drifting aimlessly, as an army requires an oflicial staff to direct its movements and enable it to accomplish its pur- pose, so the Concordia Athletic Association needs and has an executive board to put athletics in motion, keep them moving forward, and to direct their progress so that they may accom- plish their purpose, namely, the npbuilding of the body through physical exercise and the creation and fostering ot class and college spirit by means of inter-class and inter-collegiate contests. Woi-kirig' in conjunction with tl , i , . . i 1 ' 1 'f as 1 , 1 necessary athletic equipment, selects the teams to represent the institution, and reports to the association. Treasurer Fritz has proved himself to be an efficient financier. Resorting to patient persuasion and convincing argumentation when necessary, he has had good success in collecting the annual dues of two dollars from each student.

Dick Noffxe, sub. rf. Baseball in 1925. Will the team which will wear the Concordia baseball uniforms for the season of 1925 be able to uphold the high standard set by the last year 's nine? That is a question which cannot be definitely answered at this time. The only game which Manager 'Wallschlaeger was able to schedule last fall resulted in an overwhelming victory for Concordia. Matched against the Chatham Independents, the Collegians, under Capt. Scheer, took the lead in the first inning with two runs, and increased it in the second to three. ln the next four innings they were shut out, although they hit consistently. But when the visitors scored two runs in the seventh, the college boys broke loose, and by means of good hitting and timely hunting they acquired three runs in the seventh, and eight more in the eighth. Chatham scored again in the ninth, making the final count 14-3. The loss of Going and Bostelmann, who graduated last June, and Raasch, Wi1'tl1 and Schaefer, who are doing supply work, is a severe oneg but there is plenty of new material. Schaefer's position on the mound will be taken by HTibi Bellmann, another soutlipaw, who is the exact image of his illustrious predecessor when in action and who is also a dangerous man with the bat. HAbe,' Lorenz, who worked behind the plate last fall, is out of the game on account of an operation, but 'LPeewee Reiher is showing fine form in that position. Scheer is on third again, Riemer, who has returned from the vicarage, is playing short. Schade is making his first appearance in a uniform at second, and Lehninger, a member of last year's team, is on first. For the outfield there are Jurgens, the fleet-footed Hintz, the strong-armed Noffze, and 4'Tibi Bellmann. How strong a team these players will form will be revealed in the spring when they will have their opportunity to show their ability.
