Whole Football and Baseball
Teams Will Graduate This
Year-But Three Track Men
Will Be Lost.

That a larger number Of athletes
will be lost through graduation this
year than ever before in the history
of NOtre Dame, is the assertion of Di-
rector of Athletics Jesse Harper.
While only three men will be lost
from the track squad, one whole team
will graduate in each football base
ball and basketball.
But while many men are to be lost
in the various branches of sport, the
season of 1915-16 now appears even
more than promising. There are
many of last seasons reserves and
freshmen whom the coaches expect TO
develop into stars.
Rupe Mills. Bergman and Eichen-
laub are the only track men to be alb
sent from the squad next season.

line and their loss will be felt deeply
