...working hard with the men, for in the line, which will be called on for a great deal of defensive work with an extra down, there is not a wealth of heavy men of the proper speed and experience. The guard positions are still doubtful though Pennock and Driscoll seem likely candidates. It is probable that the coaching staff will be still further enlarged by the addition of L. D. Smith '12, who will return for a few weeks anyway...

Cummings and Jackson will compete against Griffith of Pennsylvania, Larkin of Yale, Craig of Michigan, Champlin of Syracuse, and Babcock of Columbia. In the low hurdle event the race will be between Cummings, Havens of Rutgers, Haydock of Pennsylvania, and Craig of Michigan. If Edwards of Pennsylvania should run in the trials today, he should have a good chance of winning both hurdles tomorrow...
