...base, although L. F. Brigham is also a strong contender for this position. For second a choice between Harrison Gardner, who played at Groton for two years, and R. P. Bullard, a former Exeter player, will be difficult. R. M. Clough, formerly of Andover, will probably be chosen for shortstop. Percy Jenkins, a star for two years at Mercersburg, and J. J. Lee, Milton third baseman, afford experienced material at that corner of the diamond...

The outfield has two veterans for a nucleus, Crane and Parsons, and there are several others out, of who Sloane, Eddy and Hoover seem to be putting up the best fight for third place...
Strong preparatory school players are included in the infield candidates; R. M. Clough for two years played shortstop at Andover, J. J. Lee and B. M. Rice for two years on the Milton Academy team, and L. B. Lockwood, T. W. Norris and A. S. Rogers were members of last year's strong Middlesex nine...
