...been progressing very rapidly in the past few days under the direction of Coach Drohan, and should be in excellent early season form for the game today. Tilton, however, is expected to offer stern opposition to the first year men. In Captain Woods, right guard, and Simpson, left forward, it possesses two veterans who caused the Freshmen a lot of worry in the game last year which 1927 won after a hard fought contest 15 to 9. Holmander, Tilton's center, has attracted a great deal of attention already this year by his sparkling offensive work...

Ellison had a stitch taken in his eye as a result of a collision with Small, the B. A. A. defense...

Isadore Zarakov played for a few minutes against Toronto, but has been unable thus far to exhibit the brilliant form he displayed against the Yale Freshman last year...
