...playing right tackle, but Adams is pushing him hard for the place. Both play hard and it will be difficult to choose between them. Thayer is a little the quicker. Hurley at right end is heavier and stronger than Flershem, but both play a good, hard game. The chances seem to be in favor of Hurley, though Flershem has been playing longer, and works better with the team. At quarter Valentine has fallen off in his work, but he still holds his own against Flint, his nearest rival. Wadsworth may come from the 'varsity and possibly shut out Valentine. though...

Jaffray ought to have made holes easily, but he did not seem to be able to do so yesterday. Of the men in the line Gould played perhaps the best game. He was active, got through once in a while, and got into the interference fairly well. Neither Beale nor Hamlen succeeded in getting as much snap into the men as Borden did last Saturday.
