decided to go into business. The loss Of
leading substitute last season., will prob
ably replace De Saulles.
There has been some talk that Ralph
'Bloomer, the tackle Of two seasons ago,
may return to college this fall. He was
suspended in March, but took and passed
his examinations with his class in June,
his friends say. If Bloomer has succeeded
in keeping up his scholarship during his
exile he is fully eligible to play again this
fall. In case he returns he will be given
Weymouth's position as plunging full
back. <s.<s S lf.'a& d -
Captain Chadwick's roll call of the
players likely to return shows that Hart,
halfback: De Saulles, quarterback; fWey-
mouth, fullback; Olcott.@- guard; swan.
right end. and Captain Gould, left end,
will not return. Ex- Captain Gould will
not return to Yale to assist : In the
coaching this fall, AS he has accepted the
position of head coach at Amherst college.
\. The following veterans. of last. season
are now sure to return this fall: Captain
Chadwick and Wilhelmi, halfbacks; Ho-
gan and Hamlin, tackles; Goss and Glass.
guards; Holt, center. +
OF the leading substitutes last year the
following will be formidable candidates
this fall: Coffin and Neal, ends; Bissell
and Weeks, tackles j ohnson, guard, Met
calf and Rockwell, quarterbacks; Cross,
Rogers and Owsley, halfbacks, and Ward,
Vanderpoel and DAILY, sfullbacks.i
Coffin. who has had a years experience
at Columbia as guard. is regarded as sure
to make the team, Neal, who was cap
tain of the freshmen last year, isaa !1ike-
ly candidate for the other end. Bissell
and Weeks were the freshman tackles last
year., Johnson, DAILY, Cross and Coffin
were all varsity oarsmen last June.

for the large, rinfux :of American sports
men. which is expected, after the first of
September, when the big. ganae-hunting

additional measures Of protection which
have been taken in recent years seem to
have resulted in a large increase of game,
judging from the. number Of moose and
caribou which have been seen during the
last few weeks by, fishermen returning
from the salmon streams and inland lakes
and lumberers' and pulp wood men.
While big game can only be hunted. or

Another good moose and caribou coun-

are three distinct districts in this part

1t seems highly: probable however, that

popularity a goodeteam in the American

the shelving of Baltimore. In case the
