...tackle. H. Inches '08, S. Hoar '09, and M. D. Robinson '09 are likely substitutes for this or left tackle. At present there is no prominent man for left tackle. S. D. Warren '08 and W. D. Philippbar '09, together with some of the extra guard material may prove good men. There will be a great number of good ends available next year. G. M. Orr '08, D. P. Starr '08, J. MacDonald '08 and V. P. Kennard '09 of last year's team will all be back, and W. M. Bird '08, A. McL. Olds Sc., a former Annapolis...
Unless D. P. Starr '08 is moved back to quarterback, it will be difficult to find a good substitute for M. L. Newhall '08, who will undoubtedly be first choice. G. S. Taylor '08, who was injured last year, is a promising candidate, and J. W. Simons '09, E. P. Currier '09, F. Cutting '09, T. H. Adams '09, S. Galatti '10, and D. Crocker '10 may show up well. There will be plenty of back-field material to choose from. J. W. Wendell '08, who played full back last year, will probably be shifted back to halfback, where...
...outlook for the broad jump, the pole-vault, and the hammer-throw is not encouraging. Stephenson and C. C. Little '10 are both good in the broad jump, but their shot-putting is apt to detract from their jumping at the end of the season. P. C. Haskell '08 and E. H. Ruch '10 may develop into point winners in the jump. With the loss of Grant, the team is left without any pole-vaulter of much ability, and in the hammerthrow, W. Peirce '08 and H. M. Gilmore '08 can hardly make up for the loss of Kersburg...
...prospects for winning all the races except the University four-oar are fairly good this year. Since going to New London all the crews have shown considerable improvement, especially the University eight. With the warmer weather that has prevailed since the men left the Charles, Coach Wray has been able to make their form much smoother, and has aided them in getting together in a way that was impossible so long as the raw weather continued...
...last been decided on as the best man available for the position. He stroked his 1907 Freshman class crew, rowed on the victorious four-oared crew in 1905, and stroked the University eight this year against Cornell. In this last race he rowed very well. He showed good generalship and pulled hard all the way. Furthermore, the men have become accustomed to his rhythm and can follow him with regularity. Nevertheless he is none too sure of himself, for he has shown a tendency to shorten his stroke at both ends as soon as he becomes fatigued. This forces...
