'89; Day, '89; S.; Wilson, '89 S.; McBride, '90; Dalzell, '91; Dickermann, '91; McClintock, '91; Poole, '91, and Root, '91.

Holden was substitute last year. He is a hard worker, a good base runner, and a valuable all-round player. Gallivan has played on his class team for two years. His fielding is fair, and last year he led the batting in the class games. Morgan and Clark played on the '89 team. Morgan is an excellant fielder, but his throwing and batting are weak...
