A. will witness basketball and all gymnasium and aquatic sports without coat This action waa taken by the board of directors tne latter part of last season but too late to go into effect last year. All home games were no high guarantee is paid a vis- iting team will be free to members. Members of the boys' department will be* admitted only when accompanied by parent or guardian. This action will do much to popu- larize the gymnasium sports and it will also make a membership in the Y, M. C. A. a mighty good investment Ordinarily a basketball fan spends from $5 to $6 a season on basketball games. A membership in the associa- tion costs $5 so it will readily be seen that a man will get a good bit for his money. The prospects for basketball have not been so bright for several years. Not since 1906 has there been snch a wealth of material for basketball teams as may be seen on the gymna- sium floor Saturday evenings.
