Make Change

According to rumors along boathouse
row, since the return Of the winning
oarsmen at the Olympics, Kenneth
Meyers, Of Norristown, who stroked the
Penn Barge four to second place, may
move up to the Vesper Club and fight
for a seat in a big eight that is expected
to be developed.
Meyers was one of the new men along
the river last spring, and the manner in
which he came up surprised every one.
He possesses all qualifications for an
oarsman, having good height and reach.
Meyers came home with Kelly, while
the other members of the Penn Barge
four remained for few extra days In
Europe. He will be among the special
guests at the city Of Philadelphia ban.

no one knew exactly what 1t would be
except HeismLn, and he was not passing
out information on the subject. 1t is
likely, however, that Mike Whitehall,
formerly of Rutgers. will be in at full
back when the whistle blows for the
kick of. On either side of him at the
halfback positions will be Harvey anil
Watkins. The latter comes from En-
poria, Kan, wherever that il. and.
judging from his play in the recent
scrimmages, should make a valuable
man with little more varsity ex.
perience. Harvey was on the squad
last year Miller will start at quarter
back. Rex Wray, who, before the
season began was considered the best
bet for this job, has been playing at
halfback. Miller played halfback on the
freshman team last year and made a
good man for Jack Keough's team. lie
fits in better with Heisman,s game than
Wray.
Doctor Heisman's forwards. with the
exception cof Ward. are experiments.
His guards are both new to varsity
football. Lehman, right guard. was a
freshman last year. but he failed 10
make the team. What he will do Is
matter OF conjecture. The other
guard is Bill Copeland, the oarsman.
He should make good man.
Thurman, who plays the opposite
tackle from Ward. was on the fresh
man team last year and was rated as
high grade performer by Keough.
Frank will do the swapping back. He
has had enough experience to be valu.
able. although he, was never regular.
Holton and Repp
Repp and Holton are the strongest
men on the Delaware line. Magsw.
although small, is fast end. sure on
tackles. Magam is small, too.
Captain McCaughn is one of the best
men in the Delaware backfield. He has
a good head and has two good players
in Fred Harmer and Ike Elliott on
either side of him. Harmer is very
fast, while Elliott is as good line
plunger. Shipley will send great
many of his men into the game, for he
il anxious to see what they are worth
against strong opposition.
Marconetti and Aiken will be Della
wares guards and Donaldson will be at
center.

Millions have been spent by the
Department OF Agriculture in an
effort to check the course of the

The disease was brought into
