Ninety-two's Prospect for a Good Tug-of-war Team.

A meeting of the candidates for the freshman tug-of-war team was held in the trophy room of the gymnasium last evening. Only eleven men presented themselves, and of these only three have ever pulled on a tug-of-war team. The outlook at present, therefore, for a good team is far from encouraging. It shows an utter lack of spirit and enthusiasm on the part of the freshmen when out of a class of three hundred only eleven men are willing to try for positions on the team. The men trying for the crew are not allowed to try for the tug but in the rest of the class it seems impossible that there should not be more men who have had experience on tug-of-war teams. The candidates at present will be under the direction of Mr. Lathrop. They will begin training to-morrow at two o'clock in the gymnasium, and it is strongly urged that as many more as possible be present.
