Eltbletic Gomment ae THE credit of what little enterprise was displayed this year in the domain of athletics is due to the Freshman class. They have several young athletes of no mean ability, and it is to be regretted that they did not have fuller opportunity to try their mettle. In the Inter- Class Baseball Match they easily defeated the combined forces of the Juniors and Seniors. aff THIS year there seems no prospect of an Inter-class Field Day, and the burden of the fault lies With the junior class. It is to the juniors that We naturally look to take the lead in all college enterprise. The Freshmen are comparative strangers to the college and to one another. The Seniors are busy preparing to take their talents into the professional world. u It is above all to the junior Field Captain that every one looks for guidance and inspiration. This officer, together with his associate Field Captains, has a diiiicult and onerous task to perform, and when they fall short of their full duty, the Field Day becomes a failure. Situ- ated as our college is, without a campus, the difficulties of their labors are vastly increased. But there is no sufficient reason Why their efforts should be utterly futile. They know what the circumstances are, and have no right to accept positions unless they are Willing to thoroughly perform the duties that go with such honors. The Field Captains of other years have triumphed over similar difhculties. But they were competent and energetic men, not afraid to put their shoulders to the Wheel. Je' THE College Baseball Team have made a very creditable record, especially when one considers the fact that most of them are from the Freshman class, and necessarily strangers to one another, and also takes into account the diiiiculties of practise. The list of games played will be found below. 94

George 1bufferoine HE remarkable aquatic performance of genial George Hufferdine on the first day of last August, when he swam from the ferry- :slip at Sausalito to Belvedere Point against adverse currents, is one that any athlete might be proud of. Owing to the currents, the dis- tance actually covered is estimated at three and a half miles. The time was one hour and twenty minutes. Mr. Hufferdine is twenty-seven years of age. His goodly propor- tions are mirrored in the picture herewith presented. Constant iippractise, perfect in health, and strong in determina- tion, We expect to hear more of him in the athletic world.
