who will coach the Washington Universe
ty football team this year. reached the
city yesterday and held a conference
with Graduate Manager Wayne Smith re-
garding the outlook for the season. Al
though League Park will be at their dis
posal this morning. IL they SO desire, 1t
was thought best to defer the formal
opening of practice for several days.
The college year does not open for a
few days, and the football candidates on
hand are mainly local boys. Some Of the
strongest men expected for this seasons
eleven are out-of-town students. These
will be back inside OF week. Until their
arrival it is likely practice will be limited
to easy training, and probably light
punting and signal work.
Doctor Smith stated last evening that
the outlook for the year. Judging frsm
the class of men who would return and the
new material in view. was reasonably
good. The eleven will lose Sears Lehman
and two or three other strong players. but
will have a good nucleus from last sea-
sons team.
Fritz Lerman. brother to Sears. will
likely be strong candidate for football
honors this year.
Seven members of last seasons team are
expected to make the eleven this year.
Carl and Andy Marshall. Bowditch, Sug-
den. Shea, Kncwlton and Mills will all
be players this year. it is thought. Carl
Marshall will be captain.
Herman. Putnam and Graydon will be
missing. This trio Of backs was a feature
of last seasons eleven. and their services
will be missed. The team. accordingly.
will be strong in tie line. and will have
TO depend upon new material for its hacks.
Hurley. substitute half last year: School
kopf, full back at Cornell two years ago:
Harrison and Meier of last seasons scrub
team; Lindsey, Leatherbee and Foster are
among the candidates for back-field posi-
tions.
Several other strong candidates are also
on hand. including Harry LeMoyne, shot
putter and swimmer of Stones School last
year. and Hanley. captain Of last sea-
sons Boston Latin School team. He will
try for full back.
Princeton's prospects are somewhat du-
bious Captain De Witt is on hand. and
Davis. Kafer. Rafferty,, Barney. Walker.
Bradley and Burke are back from last
years first and second squads. This bunch
is thought to be strong enough to give
the team an even break at the opening of
the season. The manner in which the men
will be shifted about remains to be seen.
The college prospects. however. are
thought somewhat doubtful after the sea-
son is once fully under way. Both Har-
ward and Yale have stronger divisions of
last year back than has the New Jersey
institution.

Baptiste and Adamson to Meet in
Catch-as-Catch-Ca Bout at
Middle weight Limit.
ONCE WORKED TO A DRAW.
Schmalz and Sproul Will Furnish
the Preliminary Affairs Set
for Business Mems
Gymnasium.

George Baptiste and Ed Adamson, mid
dle-weight wrestlers, will meet in a
catch-as-catch-can bout at the Busi-
ness Mems Gymnasium this evening. best
two out of three falls 10 decide SUI
preraacy. John C. Meyers will serve as
referee.
As preliminary. William SchamlZ and
Theodore Sproul will meet in a light
weight bout under the same conditions.
Bob Douglass will probably oflciate at
the opening go. The two bouts will mark
the first wrestling OF class seen here in
several seasons.
Both Adamson and Baptiste are well
known locally. Baptist has been a promi-
nent figure on the local mat since 1859,
when he made his debut as an amateur.
Adamson has appeared but once locally,
defeating Oscar Wassem in a special
bout.
In that affair. Adamson wrestled under
the name Of Edwards. He won consider
able money by backing his chances
against those of Baptiste. who was con-
sidered invincible by his acquaintance.
That was about two years ago. Since
then Adamson has been working at the
Mercantile Club, of which his father in
law ts chief steward.
Baptiste's last appearance here was his
bout with Joe Donelly at the South
Broadway Athletic Club. He won rather
handily from the Kansas City man. His
most important bout in this city was his
match w1eh HALL at the West End Colise-
um. Haln failed to throw him. as he
guaranteed.
Baptiste also went on with Harvey
Parker at q local theater on two success
sive nights. Parker failing to throw him
on each occasion. He wrsstled with Ad-
amson lately, their 60 being a draw.
On account Of this draw, the match of
this evening is thought to be a close
proposition, with the outcome In doubt.
Schmalx. who appears in the prelimi-
nary, Is well known In Turner societies
and has won several medals in the light
weight branch of the game.

terday morning each man put up 81 900 in

with SktdmOre, but when the lattaT

Ed Stanard, the heaviest member OF
Smith Academy's team last season, and
one of the best academic tackles, or
guards. in the city, has decided to return
to the institution this year, and will turn
out for practice with the team to-day.
Stanard is one of the strongest men the
academy has produced of late years. and
has been an important factor in scholas-
tic football and athletics generally. He
has always been the strongest kind of a
contestant in weight events, both at
throwing the hammer and putting the
shot.
His return will materially strengthen
team which is already starting the year
with the best kind Of prospects. Pruett,
of last seasons team, and Jim Campbell
have also definitely sannounced their in
tention of returning, according to in
formation received by two or three of the
boys.
Hoevel. Hellman, Curby. Nolte. Brown
and several others will return as a starter.
the Pastime grounds. It is hardly thought
that either of the Smith boys will return
but this is somewhat uncertain.
Tilton, a new candidate for honorS in
the football way and a member Of St
Paul's school team last year, turned out
for practice yesterday. He plays strong
game, ana lS regarQeO as certain OF d
position on the eleven this year. Hemp,
who played quarter last year. will hardly
return.
Krutszch is expected back. but no def
mite word has been received. II he re-
turns he will probably be placed at fun
back as he was last season. This posi-
ton will also be occupied. In all probable
ity. by his brother on the High School
team
Krutszch-the High School man-is out
for practice steadily enough. although his
leg is still troubling him somewhat as
result of a sprain sustained last year.
Comparing the two teams, 1t appears as If
Smith had the better prospects for this
early in the year by considerable mar
gin.
Smith starts the season with the best
eleven II has had for some seasons. 1t
Will be the last year. in all probability,
that II will meet the High team under the
old conditions, and the boys are anxious
to win the game this year. High will also
put forth every effort to capture what is
likely the closing game under present ar
Changes discussed in the High School,
such as splitting 1t into departments, may
reduce the size of the school squad next
season. This result would probably come
about through three squads being pro-
duced instead of one. Under these cir
cuD1stances each SQUAD would have
share of the strong material and II would
not all be gathered in one DIVISION
