Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1907-10-06

No left tackle has been mentioned, and
among the new material the coach will
have to find a player to fill that position.
Warren and Phillipbarr are candidates for
guard, and either Of them with suitable
tuition may make fair first-season tackle.
Orr. Starr. Macdonald and Kennard of last
years eleven will return, and from this
material the eleven will get its ends-not
so fast, perhaps. as those Of some of the
other universities, but very sure and keen
in following the ball, which is greatly
needed.
The chances are that Newhall will make
the position at quarter again, although
there are many who believe that he is In
clined to get fiustered in hard game and
not keep his team up to the mark. The
only man In the varsity who seems to have
chance to beat him out of the position is
Starr. and the prospect is good that Starr
will be continued at end. Taylor, who was
injured last year, will try for quarter. but
unless he shows surprising improvement
is not likely to make the position before
another season.
For the backfield there is an abundance
of material. The star of the field will
probably be Wendell, who was by far the
most successful back who played for Har-

Tigers Lose Good Line Man.
No eleven will lose so many experienced
Herring, the tackles, have graduated.
Hoagland is gone from the end and STAN
nard and H. Dillon, the guards, have
played their last game with the Tigers. 1t
is by far the cleanest sweep that any
eleven has received for the coming season.
Yet the orange and black is happy. and the
students say they will have an eleven
which will be fully up to the standard of
that of preceding seasons. Wister who was
one of the greatest ends Of last fall, will
play with the team this year, and Phillips
will be back for center.
Behind the line Princeton will have much
the same players as were members of the
team in 1906 Eddie" Dillon will direct
the team from the quarterback, and he is
one of the very best quarterbacks under
the new rules, while Harlan. Mccormick
mick is Of the most popular foot ball
players who was on the gridron in 1906.
He is a beautiful line plunger. and when he
had opportunity to show what he could do
made coed gains for his team. Unfortu-
nately there is less necessity for line plung-
ing now than there was In the past and
Mccormick shows at his best when his
team has its distance to make by gain of
two or three yards.
w Roper, who coached the team in 1906
will be at the head of affairs this year He
did well with his eleven last fall. He was
one Of the few coaches who realized quickly
the opportunities under the new rules, and
instructed his men to take all the advan-
tage of them possible.
Who the new men will be is question.
There is a lot of good foot ball material
going to Princeton, but most of 1t will not
be available until another season. The
freshman class will have some excellent
men from the preparatory schools and
after they have been with the Tigers for
a year they will be eligible for the team of
1909

players in the history of Princeton foot
