ing, and, although the Amherst team
has not made a brilliant record, Lark
ms work stands out prominently in all
the games the team has played. AS
far as is known, he is the only one
armed player on any team of note in
the country, and his playing is not a
whit below the standard set by his
more fortunate opponents.
With the Harvard team, Worcester
lays claim to two Of the most promis-
ing men. The best end rush in the uni
versity is a graduate of Worcester
academy and the academy eleven, Dave
Campbell by his work on the freshman
team last year, was a marked man, and
there is no player in the college who
disputes his right to a permanent place
at left end on the probable intercol-
legiate championship team. At tackle,
Roger Merriman, son of Rev. DR.. Dan
lei Merrimam, is one of the most prom
Using candidates, and already he has
been selected to take part in some of
the hard games the team has played.
Boyle at Dartmouth has few peers as
an end among the college teams. He is
in his senior year at the New Hamp-
shire college, but since his arrival at the
college he has been a member of the
college team.

with comparative ease. He started in
this season with much hard luck and
may not be able to play again on ac-
count Of injuries sustained in a practice
game with the second team.
At West Point military academy, John
E. Munroe has just joined the foot ball
squad. He was a promising man last
year, but owing to some trouble at the
CT r,t oPt he mil !,
nearly every other member of his class,
was not permitted to leave quarters I'M
til he did his part in atonement for the
breach of discipline. He was the second
man of the class released, and Joined
the foot ball squad Wednesday, and
bids fair to win his "A" before the game

In the west, Cavanaugh and Morgan
of this city are the star players on the
strong Denver Athletic club team, and
are easily maintaining the reputation
of Worcester athletes. Delaney, at the
Baltimore medical college, Is captain,
fullback and strongest player on that
team, and at Georgetown college Kerns
and Quinn of Worcester have no peers
on the strong eleven representing one
of the leading Catholic colleges of the
country. M
At the University of Pennsylvania
the name Ten Eyck stands out promin-
emily in all the college sports. The
man from Worcester is champion am
ateur sculler of the world; he is the
best man on the college water polo
team, and as foot ball
PLAYER HAS OPENED THE EYES
of the coaches and men on the regular
team. The fact of his prominence in
the aquatic world will not permit ac-
tive competition on the white marked
field, but Ten Eyck has put on the
moleskins for exercise, and on each &C.
casion has completely dimmed the lus-
tire of some of the college stars
Jack Gregson of Worcester is Bow
doin's strongest halfback, and Johnson,
with Yale freshmen and Knibbs, with
Exeter academy, take back water in
playing ability from none of the play
ers on their teams.
For future stars Worcester Is likely
to supply it's usual quota. Most prom
inent in the preparatory teams of the
city are Daily of the high school, and
Norris of the academy. The latter is by
far q more brilliant man than Dave
Campbell was when he wore the GRIM
son and black wv. A." and when Norris
leaves school he should have no difficult
ty in making any team he aspiTes to.
Daily is natural athlete, in whom
Yale where he intends to go next year,
will have prize. AS a foot ball play
err he is undeveloped but even in this
