much encouragement TO the new players
who saw the zeal inside OF football Tor
the first time.
Paramount was unusually strong be-
hind the line last year. The backs this
year are not playing together. Bostick
as quarterback does not inspire the con-
ddence that his predecessor did last year.
This may be overcome liz a game or two,
but outside of line plays the Fairmounts
back need much work. Foster, the cap
tain. is behind the line. He is a sure
ground gamer and in this one man, Fair
mount has one of the best players in
the southwest. Softer is a new man al
half back and as yet it is hard to pre-

his old position. Joselyn is a new man,
who does not yet fully understand the
necessity Of strong, snappy defensive
playing. The lire playing seems to be

essentials of Tire game. Kirk is a new

not using the kicking game more in their
contest with teams, playing nothing but
regular line foot bah.
The prospects for Paramount this year
are better than they were last year al
the same time They are more men
accustomed to the game. With one vic
tory to their credit. the Fairmounters
should make a good record in the games
to come and show up well in the vital
Thanksgiving game.
The outlook Tor a strong team at the
Friends university This season is very
favorable at present. Never before have
the men put up 50 coed a showing so
early in the season. one game only has
been played 50 far this season, that with
