Lacrosse Meeting Last Evening

About 50 candidates attended the University and Freshman lacrosse meeting last night in the Assembly Room of the Union. W. F. Garcelon L. '95, F. C. Alexander '10, captain of last year's championship team, K. B. Day '11 and Captain P. C. Nash '11 spoke on various aspects of the game.

Mr. Garcelon said that, although one of the oldest sports, lacrosse had been slighted at times, and he was glad to see that interest in it was growing. There is no game in which form and team-play show up to greater advantage, for, as in baseball and football, it is the team and not the individual that wins the game. In the last five years the University has had three championship teams. This is the foundation of a tradition which each branch of sport is striving to build up, and it is the duty of this year's lacrosse team to strengthen it by winning another championship.

Practice will begin this afternoon at 4 o'clock, and will continue daily on the courts behind the Hemenway Gymnasium until Soldiers Field is available.
