IMPORTANT IF TRUE.

James G. Lathrop, a well known Boston athlete, has been recommended to the faculty of Harvard College as master of athletics at Cambridge. Mr. Lathrop has had a great deal of experience in preparing athletes for important events, and has always been an ardent admirer of athletic sports out of pure love of the games. He was one of four men to organize the Union Athletic Club, which gave the first impetus to athletics in New England outside of the colleges. When he was some years younger than he now is, he was known as one of the best 'all-round" athletes in New England, and he has won 35 medals for his prowess. He is 35 years of age, and will make an intelligent and sensible instructor.-[Herald.
