Football will be hit harder by the de-
parture Of the possessors Of the sheep
skin than any other sport. Yale will
lose an entire line. Princeton will miss
the left side Of the line, as well as sew
eral strong substitutes. Waller and
Bamman. Siegling and Balm, Welch,
Read, Bergen, Buckingham, and Daw-
son are among the elect. In Dawson,
by the way, the Tigers will lose one of
the best-if not the best-catchers who
ever doomed a mask for the Orange and
Black.
Harvard will lose fewer football men
than Yale or Prin,eto but the GRIM
son baseball and track stars will de-
part in large NUMBERS. Pennsylvania
and Dartmouth will lose men who rep
resented a large proportion Of their ath-
letic strength for four seasons.
From the smaller colleges an unusual
number of men whose athletic achieve
ments rank with those OF the stars at
the larger institutions will leave for
good.
