...senior class. This leaves a nucleus of four men for the team next year. Losey '03, who played a strong game at centre for the freshmen, will be a promising candidate for the university team next year. Dana '03, a substitute on this year's team, will try for Captain Edward's position at right guard. Right tackle will probably be filled by Sheffield '02 or Hale '02, both of whom have been doing good work on the second eleven. There will be a number of good candidates for the end positions, Ropes '02, who took Palmer's place...

Brown, Olcott, Stillman, Gibson, Gould, Fincke, Sharpe, Chadwick and Keane will return to college next year. Hale may also return as a post-graduate student. The positions left vacant by graduation will be difficult to fill satisfactorily. The most promising of the substitutes who will probably be candidates again next year are Cunha and Tomlinson for centre, Cook for left tackle, and Adams for fullback...
