With regard to the S.V.C. gymnasium classes as a whole, everything points to a successful season. The weather so far has not been such as to tempt men to go in for sacians ¢xercion, but with the cold weal coming on it is expected that the classes will be largely ate tended. The gymnasium is well fitted, and there is now a good service of everything required. An idea which has been at the back of the committee's mind is to give men. taking part in Saturday sport, an opportunity of getting exercise during the week, so that they will be in better trim for their Saturday's games. A demonstration has been planned for about the end of the year, so that it can be seen what Progress has been made. further suggestion has been made that, should the gymnasium Prove as popular as it is hoped, the Council might do worse than allocate a large room in the proposed new building as a gymnasium, with new and proper equipment. The Commandant of the 8.V.C., Lieut.- Col. R. N. Bray, has placed the gymnastic classes in the charge of committee. Mr. Croker, of "B" Ca. is the Chairman, with Mr. Chevalier, of the American Ca., a8 Secretary. The committee consists of Messrs. J. A. 8. Alves and Fokien (games committee), and L. C.
