Sporting Views
By the Editor


There has been some talk OF or
ganizing a football team among the
forces of the Stone & Webster Engin-
eering Corporation. Many OF the
men are college football men and are
anxious to don the moleskins again.
If the team is organized it is said
that Fletcher will captain it. He cap
tured the Purdue football team last
fall and the ability Of the captain is
shown by the following extract from
the football guide of 1911: 1.-THE team
(Purdue) was green but showed a
steady development through the sea-
son. They were light but exhibited
good fighting qualities, and their
form was first class during the latter
part Of the season. In their last game
with Indiana, they gained about as
much ground as did Indiana"
