...class championship, it must be realized that conditions are changed this year, so as to materially add to the strength of their team. For this year no considerable number of the entering class have been with the 'Varsity, in fact only one man is now with the squad, and under this system the Freshmen have the advantage of the full football strength of their class. This advantage, of course no other class has, and that it is an important one cannot be denied. Besides this the '99 team is somewhat crippled after the game with '98, and will...
...Freshmen went through signal practice for some time. They are developing a good system of interference and should show up well in this afternoon's game. Burnett, who has been playing for some time on the 'Varsity squad, joined the Freshmen yesterday and played a strong game at centre...

Thomson has taken Bull's place at stroke, and Fitzgerald is rowing 2. Coleman and Higginson have both been...

...yesterday the backs devoted a great deal of time to goal kicking. The two elevens then lined up for a few minutes of sharp, hard work. Perkins and Bull, of last year's 'Varsity crew, came out for the first time, playing right and left half on the second squad respectively. Perkins tackled strongly, but was injured so early in the game that no opportunity was given of judging of his possibilities as a back. Bull also dove into the interference well but in his rushing showed a lack of experience and practice. Throughout the game, the first eleven forced...
