...Flower '19, who was captain of his freshman eleven and track team, will stant at fullback; R. H. Bond '19, halfback, also playd on his freshman eleven, and C. K. Clark '19 was the 1919 guard.

Mueller will undoubtedly remain in his old position of fullback. With the loss of Barrett, comes a large gap to be filled in the form of a quarterback.
