University was l27. The class. thi.
year. is one Of the best that the college
has ever had as there is an abundance
of material both for athletic depart
mentS and for the musical clubs. The
musical clubs this year promises to bt
the best for years. as there has beer
so much excellent material imported
by the freshmen class. Trips are be-
ing arranged up through Aroostook
county to be taken about the Thanks

Augusta. Portland, Lewiston and Saco
The foot ball team is row getting in
TO the best possible shape and have
had good practice in the two games
which have been played this season
with NJ C. /. and Bar Harbor. The
next game will be at Bar HarbOr. mex,
Saturday, while one week from then
Colby will come to Orono with team
which they say will make it hot for the
University lads. This game promises
to be one in which perhaps the most
interest is centered as the rivalry be-
tween these two institutions of learn
ing is most intense. Each afternoon
finds about 80 men out for practice and
under such a competent coach as Mr.
Farley, is proving to be. there seems
to be no reason why the University OF
Maine is not going to be heard from
later.
The line up of this years team will
be practically the same as that of last
year. with of course few exceptions.
Only two men were lost by graduation
last year. but there has been some
good material developed from the
freshmen class. Bearce, who played
tackle on Edward Little. is a possible
man for this position on the Varsity.
Bailey, Edward Titles star quarter
back, while trifie under weight. is
proving himself to be a valuable man.
His worl. in the last two games was
of a high order and position on the
Varsity is almost a certainty. Other
for left half. Both are good men.
Bradford having subbcd. last year.
played in a number of games and
showed up to advantage. Parker. who
is known in track athletics, is also
showing up well at this position.
Barrows is a candidate for back and is
putting up a strong game. Dorticos
will play his old position at full. Tay-
Tor OF last years team. will play right
half. Mcfarland. freshman, is put
ting up a strong game at left end
Sawyer, '04. will play his former posi-
ton at right guard. Duren and Mosh-
er are candidates for left guard. both
are good men and it is a toss up which
will be put on the Varsity. Elliott and
Bearce are candidates for right tackle.
Elliott played this position last year.
Packliff is a sure man for center hav-
ing played this position on the Var
sity for the last three years. and is a
good man for this position. 1t is too
early yet to determine the players who
will constitute the team that will rep
resent the University. as there are 50
many men for the positions. who will
