Weighing less than our Freshman team, the University of Virginia eleven averages only 165 pounds. It is the lightest team that Virginia has ever sent North, and the lightest that the Crimson eleven has met this fall...
...heaviest 1920 player is R. G. Hadley '20, right tackle, who weighs 251 pounds, while the lightest is F. S. Johnson '20, quarterback, who weighs only 141. Captain F. C. Church, Jr., '20, is four pounds heavier than Captain Kempton, of Yale, the figures being 157 and 153 pounds respectively...
Figuring on probable line-ups, the two teams seem to be about equal in strength. Cool, the Cornell centre, who is, the lightest man in the visiting line, will have his greater experience to offset Taylor's weight; in Anderson and Miller, Dadmun and Cowen will meet two veteran guards who each tip the scales to over 200 pounds, while the new Ithacan tackles may be at a slight disadvantage in opposing veterans Gilman and Parson.

Captain Wilson will probably not start the game as he was overstrained in last week's encounter, and has been doing the lightest sort of work since then. Legore will also still be kept out of the game. His shoulder is still weak and the coaches are unwilling to take any chances with him. However this is offset by the return of Black and Betts, both line-men. The former was the Captain and star of last year's freshman...
