ance of trained veteran players goes, the
Harvard foot ball team for next year will
start with a splendid outlook. Out of the

men will graduate next June. They are
Capt Burden right guard; Boal. left

The greatest loss. therefore, is in the
guards. Unfortunately there do not seem
to be any good substitutes left. For the
tackles, Eaton can take Donald's place
Lawrence at right tackle is fixture. AS
for ends, Campbell and Hallowell will be
back. Ristine and Hawkins the substi-
tutes. will also return. OF course, Daily

LADY GRooMs LoNDoN's LATEST
(London Chronicle

NIUIIUUU NHIUHIUIt.J
The lady groom is the latest acquisi-
ton to the ranks of feminine employ
ments. 1t is certainly very Gull for a
young lady to ride in the park or else
where with only a groom in attend
ance riding behind her at a discreet
distance; it must be far more agree
able for her to ride in company with
a cheerful person of her own sex, where
social position allows of her riding side
by side. A London riding mistress has
hit on this happy idea, and no doubt
the profession of riding companion will
soon find many followers, both in town
and country.
