promise of December to supply you with
details concerning the proposed publish-

inform you that, in conjunction with ten
others, I have bought Outing and will
forthwith become its Editor. The
‘others’ are: Fletcher Harper, the great
. grandson of one of the three original
-founders of Harper & Brothers; Robert

that sailed Columbia against Shamrock;
David M. Goodrich, Captain Harvard

Gamp, both old Yale athletes; CC.
Cuyler, the well-known Princeton ex-
athlete; S. F. Houston, the prominent
University of Pennsylvania alumnus; T.
D. M. Cardeza, who lives in Philadelphia
when not seeking new fields for explora-

man, an all-round sportsman of St.
Louis, devoted especially to polo and
hunting.

suggest the strength of the corporation

qualified in the field of sport, pure and

prospective contributors, Rudyard Kip-

Outing to the utmost magazine limits of
its especial field, which we shall further
cover by the publication of books, timely
and interesting, and later, a weekly of
current comment.”

Universal
Athletics.
That is the goal and—it is pleasant to
say—the present tendency of the
changes in athletic policy in the
great universities. Over four
hundred men were on the water
at one time last season at Har-
vard. To-day the streets of
New Haven are fairly alive with
athletes on their runs. It’s fine.
One of the incidental results of Uni-
versal Athletics is to more thor-
oughly acquaint every university
