years OF the Brickley.Hardwick Me
han Pcnnock regime has been taken
oil by graduatons The Crimson team
OF 1910 must be built mp with Jew
good veterans and hig crowd oi
fledglingS Therefore Harvard, minus
is satellites OF 1913, l9li and 1915 will
be reduced to point where II won't
achieve such walk-away victories over
it, aoes as in other years And better
contests, OF course, will result
Yale. on the other hand, looks strong a
e. right now than 1t has Tor some time

Cornell played out Stiti schedule
The majority of the 1918 stars remain
and Cornell has recruited from II,
freshmen ranks some da11lers But
Charlie Barrett has gone and that's
where the puzzle comes in.
Many who saw Cornell in action lau

wouldn't have amounted to an awful
