...Israelite '20 are the best men in the 135 pound class, while the best of the 145 pounders is A. H. Walsh '20. In the 158 pound class C. H. Holladay '20 and A. K. Marsh '20 are the most promising men. The 175 pound and heavyweight classes will be filled by three men: T. M. Brown '20, L. B. Davis '20 and W. H. Cheney '20, of the Freshman football team...

Sullivan, former boxing champion, has tried to arrange an bout between D. G. Kirkpatrick '17, winner of the heavyweight bout last spring, and Jess Willard, present world's champion...
There is a good opportunity for new men to make the team this year, as only three of last year's regulars are left. They are W. B. Snow '18, captain and most promising man in the heavyweight class; S. Davidson '17, the champion of the University in the 125-pound class, and R. B.

Baldridge, right tackle, and Yale's heavyweight wrestler, is the third 200 pounder. Behind the line Hutchinson is within five pounds of the 200-pound mark. During his career at Exeter and on the Yale freshman eleven he has been fast as well as a remarkable plunging back, and he has reported with promise of proving one of Yale's most powerful line-breakers. His brother, Guy Hutchinson, was a lightning quarter-back at Yale 10 years...
