THE RED AND BLACK. VOL 2. UNIVERSITY OF (JEOlHilA, ATHENS, OA., JANUARY'12, 1895. NO. 14. Field Day. Kyery one is looking forward with interest to Field Day, the day set aside by the Trustees for alhletio sports. Four new features will be introduced this year, and all in all, the exereises promise to be the most interesting of any ever held. Some of the athletic contingent have already begun to put them selves in the proper condition, by regular training, and those who in tend participating in the exercises and have not begun to train, should do so at once. To the new men, especially, do we give this advice. They should acquaint themselves with all the ex ercises, and should begin at once for the training of those exercises. We give below, for the benefit of the new men, the college records, Baseball Officers. The members of last year’s base ball team met on last Tuesday in l)r. Ilerty's room, fertile purpose of electing captain and manager for the ensuing season. Mr. W. L. Kemp, D5, was elected captain, while Mr. F. K. Boland, VI, was elected manager. Mr. Kemp has had a great deal of experience in baseball, and is an expert player, being considered one of the best amateur ball players in the state- Mr. Boland's business sagacity is too well known to need any com ment. The fact that he was elected from so great a number is a suffi cient acknowledgement of his abil ity. No two better officers than Messrs. Kemp and Boland could have been selected, and we con- Thk Kkd and Black regrets that "Long, long year* hath tirowlersampled any difficulties between town men Spindled shanks at twilight's hour and students should ever occur to l ho dude’s who come a-courting w eaken the bond of interest snd 1 v A ^\ Up ° n whom 1 ao “ r ' f , , . . , No, ‘>hl tirowler sliall be loosened," friendship winch has always existed Aml 0tr ,, ngh „„ between them.
