WHAT FAIR HARVARD OFFERS
Enthusiasts Begin to WOnder what
sort of Team IL Coming.


CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Sept. 5.-Foot ball
enthusiasts are wondering what sort of
an eleven will represent the Crimson this
year. The candidates will be
for practice September 10, and then things
will be on the move till the end of the
season.
OF the men who faced old Ell last Novcm-
Der, none of the egulars have graduated
and two of the substitutes are gone. OF
the HI men eligible this year there are
Captain F. r. Burr, 'O9; H. Finn, jr., 10;
Hoar. 90; G.. G.. Browne. 10, and v. p.
Kennard. 90. Burr will very likely con-
tinue at tackle unless there is a scarcity
of good guards, when he will be shifted
to his old place.
OF the second eleven Fish, Kennard,
Robinson ES@Gden. Philliphar and Comstock
will come out for the vacant tackle posi-
lions. THE tight for tackle this year
promises to be unusually bitter, and the
winning men won't be known for weeks
after the ball begins to be passed.
Guards are scarce. Burr most likely at
tackle, leaving the fight to come among
Hoar Frockheimer of last years second
team. and Dunlap and Mcguire of the
freshmen. Every year there are a number
of lightweight men trying for guard. but
have to be dropped on that account.
End are plentiful this year. G.. G
Browne and Houston look the best at this
stage of the year. Pierce and Foster of
last years squad will also be out for work
this month. There are also Cooper OF
the second team and Crowley, Corbett,
Harding and Rogers of the freshmen. r. c
Brown. captain of the freshmen last year
until his illness will try for a place or
the varsity eleven.
Cutting will have the call for the vacant
place at quarter. Toward the end of last
season he was playing a good game and
may be the varsity choice this season
Cate and Galatti will also be tried and
c. G. Browne may be worked out there
by Coach Percy Haughton.
Grants place at center will very likely
go to Hourse, substitute last season. Smith
of the freshmen and Dore of the secont
team will put up a struggle for the place
however.
w. II. Brown, formerly of Exeter ant
ineligible last season, will be formidabl,
candidate for fun back. However, Water
bury and Plumer of last years substi
tutes will be out for the place in the cente,
of the back field.
White and Gray, out last year with tn
second team, and Cutler and Minot Of tn
freshmen will try for the back field, an,
ought to make the choice q hard one
Gilbert and Graydon, out for fun bacI
last year, will most likely be shifted I
half back this season. and the Crimson wi
have a strong, hard-running powerful bac,
field.
Coach Haughton will take persona
charge of the painters, and Harvard wi
have some good kickers when he get
through with them. Captain Burr will d
the punting for the team.

M1DD1Es TO GATHER THIS MONTH
Navy Foot bali Team WIN start on
September "a.


ANNAPOLIS, Md. Sept. 6.-Twenty-six
midshipmen, comprising the pick of the
championship foot ball team of the United
States Naval academy, are now on leave
of absence and at their homes awaiting
the call that will bring them back to the
academy about the gath instant. The menu
bers Of the foot ball team have been al
lowed to go to their homes a week in adj
vance OF the other midshipmen as they
have TO return to the academy one week
earlier than their classmates, so as to get
to work on the gridiron. 1t has been the
custom for years for the foot ball players
to return in advance of their fellow mid
dies, thereby curtailing their vacation.
This year, however, the authorities have
made 1t up by allowing them a week at
the beginning of the vacation period.
The twenty-six midshipmen are in SPLEEN
did condition. with the number are Percy
w. Northcroft, the huge tackle, whose
home is Pautucket, r. l., and all the other
members of last years squad except those
who have graduated. and Max B.. De Mott
Of Niles. Mich, end on the eleven OF last
year, who had to be left at Newport, r l.,
on account of an attack of typhoid fever.
II is doubtful whether or not De Mott
will be able to play foot ball during the
coming season. If he does not, the loss
will be severely felt, as Dague, the other
coaches the task of developing two ends,
and it will not be an easy one. However.
there is much good material and the job
will probably fall to Douglass Howard,
captain of the eleven of 1905, who will be
one of the coaching staff. Howard was
one of the best ends who ever played at
the academy.

AerOnauticH,

Aeronef is a French general term for
aeronauttc apparatus embraced under the
head Of "~helicopters,' 'a~eroplanes' and
'~ornithopters."
Crown Prince Frederick William has be-
come one of the most ardent %aeronauts in
m as a result of his ascension in a
military dirigible machine.
What might be called an all-Italian dirig-
ible balloon of the capacity of $500 meters
is being built for the Italian army, all parts
having been made in Italy.
The English people are likely soon to
nave an opportunity of witnessing the
flights of the Wright brothers on the aero
plane, the Motor club having invited them
to become its guests.
Now that the Baldwin dirlgible balloon
has been accepted, government officials are
directing attention toward getting from
congress as large an appropriation as posi-
pie, net less than 100000 to buy a fleet of
dirtgible airships.
with the exception of the third Belgian
pilot the aeronauts who will compete In the
International balloon contest, which starts
from Berlin in October. have been chosen.
More than sixty balloons, large and small,
are now expected to start.
NJ. Francisco Antonetti has made a gift
to be awarded to pilots who are member
of the Aero club Of France and who shall
steer balloons Of the first class in a distance
competition without landing.
Preliminary steps have been taken for
the formation OF an aero club in Washing
ton. A committee of four, Brigadier Gen
tIdl AItilt AUGUSTUS GOSl, heCItidIN OF Nlt
Aero club; DIR. Zahm of the Catholic Uni
verstty OF America and a newspaper mar
have been appointed to form the club.

Richie is a base line player of the Beals

similar to those of w. A. Larned. He has
an effective service, a powerful drive,

merry Rhein daughters. Their tricks
were charming, and II the orchestra
had played more appropriate music

From what we had heard we expected
better music. Certain parasitic most

natural to us, because we knew tn:
