But again, to make the children

love to play with their doll babies? We
all can all remember the time when
these girls dressed up Dollie and went

Clarkson, after a conference with
Coach kaftery, former mentor OF
the Generals, who will be with
Clarkson next year, called for all
candidates for the 1922 team to re-
port. A squad of 10 men answer
ed the CT and no time was lost IN
beginning the grind for next year.
Coach Clarkson Immediately took
over the linesmen and Coaches
Rattery and Leech, the backs. The
first two weeks were given over to
fundamentals and the last two to
formations. The V. NJ. |. mentors
are up against difficult PROPOSE
ton through the loss of ten mono
gram men from last years varsity
team, leaving Captain harrison,
Watkins, Farley, Faulkner, K. Hunt
Ryder, Costello and Atwell to build
around. Contrary to custom IN
spring football practice, heavy work
has been INDUCED in. The coaches
feel that they have gotten good
start for next years team and when
the fall rolls around they will have
good idea of the ability of their
men and greatly lessen the expert
mental work usual to early practice
There is no gainsaying the fact
that Clarkson has been hard hit by
the loss of so many good iinesmen,
but he will leave no stone unturned
to develop who will fill these holes.
