...place in the Varsity Club at 7.15 o'clock. Coach Ralph Winsor '02 will speak on the prospects for the coming season which, with the return of Captain J. E. P. Morgan '17 and J. I. Wylde '17 on the defence, and of last year's first and second forward lines, appear unusually bright. Captain Morgan will also speak.
