are extremely bright, as not one
first-stringer will be lost from
this years eleven which, enjoyed
a successful season. The Co
lonials finished on top in six
games this year, dropped two and
tied one for their best record
in years.
In fact, only Barney Hale, sub.
stitute tackle, and Blackie Hoff-
man, sub fullback, will be lost
from the 1891 squad. Hale was
regular last year, but injuries
kept him on the bench most of
this campaign, though regaining
his regular tackle berth for the
last three games.
Hoffman was the outstanding
member of the 1929 eleven, which
failed to seize at least one vic
tory, even SO much as losing to
American University. Injuries
affected Hoffman's play this year.
