VERNOlf :=^ Georgetown took another forward step in athletics, when Lou Little, Athletic Director of the University, called a meet- ing on last Thursday for candidates for a boxing team. This department of ath- letics was followed with great enthusiasm and interest when thirty-two men re- ported for the initial meeting, which was held in the Ryan Gymnasium. Georgetown's boxing team will be headed by Jim McNamara, star football guard, who is to act as Director and Coach of the mittmen. Pike Albaugh will train the men and Johnny Serica and Tommy Murphy will act as instruc- tors. In these two men the boxing team is assured to become a success. Both hold amateur titles and are certainly capa- ble of teaching the Hilltoppers the manly art of self-defense. John Conklin will manage the team. Coach McNamara and Lou Little were exceedingly well pleased with the can- didates who reported for the first work- out, and from present indications it looks as though the Blue and Gray will soon be able to boast of a very formidable boxing team. Although the battlers are just begin- ning to get into shape and as yet a repre- sentative team has not been picked, never- theless arrangements are already under way for matches with some of the strong- est boxing teams of the South Atlantic section. It is believed and hoped for that the Georgetown boxers will be able to compete with the best of teams and carry the colors of the Blue and Gray to victory. Coach McNamara, assisted by- Johnny Serica and Tommy Murphy, lost no time in getting things in shape for the can- didates. The men began their training after the meeting and have been working out regularly in the Ryan gymnasium. So far the training has consisted of light work, such as skipping the ropes, punch- ing the bags and working with the weights. Many of the men have been boxing for four or five rounds and it will not be long until the team will be in the pink of condition. This is not the first time that a boxing team has been inaugurated at George- town ; for a few years the Blue and Gray possessed a splendid aggregation of scrap- pers, but due to the serious injury of a participant, the sport was dropped. Great things are expected from this department of athletics and with the wealth of material that reported for the first few days, it seems that Georgetown will be able to boast of a real team of fast, hard hitting, and scrappy box- ers. The candidates are as follows: Greenafege ....150 Walsh 150 Tighe 140 Brittingham .. .128 Connaughton . .278 De Raimes .. .160 Estevez 150 McGuire 150 Flynn 175 McGorgan 175 Ducci 120 Foley 165 Ward 120 Golsen .175 Cashman 145 Illig 140 Bastall 140 Wendell 130 Brennan ...... 165 Sullivan 170 Kozack 185 McGurgle 145 Murray 135 Moran 145 Foley 160 Scassina 130 Blommer 145 Flavin 160 Dcgassis 158 Schwartz 150
