...throwing would make an interesting event in the coming spring meeting. We have athletes sufficiently proficient in each of these branches to ensure us a very creditable record in case a contest should take place, and taking into account the extra interest the Athletic Association would promote by encouraging special skill among the members of the teams, it seems that it would be well worth their trouble to inaugurate this new event...
