This will leave a powerful set of reserves to fill in. The second line-up is: Huffard, Boxton, Zilly and Seabury ends, John and Taylor tackles, Hemingway and Charlie Miller guards, Starbuck and Willard centers, and Humphrey, Wilson, Burr and Whiteman backs. The whole squad is in good fighting form, and they seem to have the old do-or-die attitude to the last degree...
