There are, as usual, a large number of candidates for the different positions, but it is much too early to make predictions about the quality of the nine which will represent Ninety two on the field this spring. The outlook is promising, and Captain Cady will probably evolve a fairly representative nine out of the thirty or more men trying for positions on the team. The candidates come from all sections of the country. Almost all have occupied positions on the nines...
