Class Football.

The class football teams had their first hard work of the season yesterday. After light preliminary work the different squads practiced breaking through and getting down on punts. '99 and '98 also lined up for short ten minute halves, after which parts of the squads were dismissed and teams chosen to practice signals. 1900 is at present less advanced than either of the other squads and the material is also of a somewhat inferior grade. There is a strong need of line men, as there is barely one man for each of the centre positions. All the squads in fact are extremely light and would be greatly strengthened by the acquisition of a few heavy men.

Following are the names of the men who are trying for the teams, together with their positions:

Ninety-eight-Flershem, Dunn, Edwards, Wood, ends; Curtis, Vincent, Barstow, quarter-backs; Flint, Gibbs, Sanborn, Edson, Tilden, half-backs; Hastings, Emmons, full-backs; Rice, K. Adams, Richards, tackles; Tirrell, Thayer, Riggs, Stone, guards; Grilk, centre.

Ninety-nine-Thompson, Stanwood, Spencer, quarter-backs; Simpson, Adams, Macomber, Galbraith, Hewitt, half-backs; Brown, full-back; Johnston, Nourse, Jackson, Bancroft, Marden, Baldwin, ends; Stowell, Bigelow, Simonds, tackles; Catlin, Whitman, Huntington, guards; Homans, center.

Nineteen hundred-Bedford, Davis, quarter-backs; Kidner, George, Churchill, Martin, K. Cook, Scott, Adsit, Sanderson, half-back; Clough, full-back; Pope, Holliday, Beardsell, Davenport, Clement, Haughton, Phippen, Peckham, ends; Crane, Morison, Talbot, Eaton, tackles; Shaw, Fabyan, guards; Curtis, centre.
