Pauxtis and Miller Of the freshman
eleven are good enough to get into the
varsity this year. 1t will be a wonder If
they do not crowd Scarlet off the team,
although Scarlet is likely to remain as
long as he shows any speed. for he proved
a good man for the Quakers when they
were sadly in need OF good men.
Macklin, who played at St. Pauls. will
be eligible for the team this year. and the
coaches will certainly try to provide for
him in some way. He is a tackle and an
excellent player. He is fully as fast as
CASTOR, and perhaps better all-around
player. So it will be seen that the coaches
at Pennsylvania will have their troubles
to use all their good material this year.
They have SO much Of it that the university
undergraduates will be expecting success
from the start, and they have reason to
do SO.
Cornell Well Equipped.
Cornell is another team which will prob
ably make good showing this year. OF
course, there may be some hitch, as 1t is
the beginning Of a new system Of coach
Ing at Ithaca. Glen Warner has left to
go with the Indians. and the Comedians
will try the graduate system of coaching,
a plan something similar to that Of Yale,
but perhaps for the first year with less
system than is in evidence at Yale, where
coaching is better worked out than it has
been at any university in the United
States.
Halliday and Schoelkopf will have charge
OF the players. The most serious loss on
the Cornell eleven will be Newman at
center. He was one Of the best players in
the United States last year. For that
matter, not only last year. but the year
before He Is not large man, but there
was not center on an opposing eleven
who could handle him.
van Onman and Babcock, the ends, will
De with the team; Thompson, the excellent
guard, is eligible another year, and both
OF the tackles. Cook and Brinton, will be
members. Jameson will probably be the
quarterback again, and 1t is very likely
that Valdez will be a better fullback this
year than he was last. The big red
team has fine outlook. and is almost
certain to be one of the 1907 successes.

Syracuse made an enviable record In 1900
Although the team got away with a bad
start, 1t continued to improve with good
coaching, and because the players made
