SEWARD A. CLUB
GETS UNDER WAY
WITH FAST START
With instructions from Burr Sny
der, president of the Seward Athletic
club, to draw up a daily schedule of
indoor athletic events that will sat
isfy the various gymnastic cravings,
tendencies and abilities of the now
sixty-eight members, as well as for
the participation by all Sewardites,
young and old, who are so inclined,
the Athletic Committee of the club
met last night, and, after discussing
pro and con and hearing divers de
votees expound the merits of their
favorite games, placed a captain in
charge of each branch of sport to
be sponsored in the locaal gym this
season and designated the specific
nights of the week that will be given
over to each pastime.
Upon the shoulders of Ted Mc
Ewan, popular instructor in the local
high school and former college bas
ketball coach, is placed the task of
giving the town two, or possibly three
fast basketball teams that will put
up keenest competition to each oth
er and create a rivalry that will be
both popular and interesting to watch.
McBwen is also firm in the belief that
a first string team can be whipped
into shape, capable of playing a brand
of basketball classy enough to regain
from Anchorage the honors that were
lost to that aggregation last winter.
Basketball practice will be held after
eight o’clock each Monday and Wed
nesday evening, and on Saturday eve
nings.
Indoor baseba-ll and volleyball, in
novation to some and surely a treat
to all, are to occupy prominent places
on the sports program this year. Ev
ery Tuesday night the club house
will be the scene of home runs, three
baggers and two base hits galore,
while hair raising shoestring catches
by the outfielders, daring steals of
second or strike outs in a pinch will
furnish the thrills or dismays for i
the pleasure seeking audience or
participants, for Captain Leonard Ol
son, star backstop of the one-time fa- ! i
mous Minneapolis Millflawers is go
ing ahead with the forming of Indoor
Baseball teams and requests that all
the former Hans Wagners, Ty Cobbs
and Lajoies show up on the paint
ed diamond, minus their spikes and
reputations and go thru a seven or
nine inning ball game with him each
Tuesday.
Thursday evenings will be devot
ed to Volleyball. This milder but
effective form of athletics is the
means by which the club, thru the
presentation of Prof. Barnett, hopes
to induce the activities of those bus
iness men of the town desiring rec
reative exercise but who are some
what shy of the more strenuous bas
ketball, handball, etc.
The handball artists, already off on
a good start, will begin playing a
schedule of contests arranged so
that the eight or ten present enthus
iasts of that worthy game can each
play one official contest each week,
besides all the unofficial games they
care to get in. Until the two-man
teams are formed, the schedule for
the official playing of singles will be
the main attraction in this depart
ment; both schedules, when ready,
can be successfully carried out in
the time allotted. The time given
over to handiball, by the committee,
are the hours before eight o’clock
on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday evenings.
On Friday nights the nail is de
voted to the meetings of the Boy
Scouts, free of the costs of light and
heat which will be furnished by the
club, while on all school days the
pupils and their instructor take pos
session and fulfill their cnvn athletic
programme as prescribed.
Upon hearing from the ladies, as
'o what sports or games they wish
to pursue, the organization officers
ivill make a place for them on the
weekly schedule, and, if they desire,
ippoint a male member of the club
to assist in their coaching.
