Undoubtedly the greatest loss will be that of Glick at quarterback. This year there was no reliable second-string man to take his place in case of injury, and it does not look as though 1919 would produce anyone suitable for the position as a regular. Ames 1917 and Blake 1918 were the two best substitutes this season, but neither showed himself capable of consistently good judgment in tight places. If Eberstadt 1917 is able to play, the situation will be cleared considerably, as he gave promise of making a good quarter from his play in freshman and sophomore years...

Taylor '18 all did excellent work in the forward line of the 1918 team, while of last year's second-string men E. O. Baker '17, L. Curtis '16 and T. K. Fisher '17 all won their letters. Two of these men, with R. Baldwin '17 and G. Townsend '17, who will probably fill their old positions at left wing and centre respectively, should constitute a fast and sure forward line...
...showing made by the University first-string substitutes was rather discouraging, for they failed to get together against their much weaker rivals, and from their generally ragged play, it would seem that the University team would be in serious straits in case of an injury. The work of the regulars for the rest of this week, at least, promises to be very light, for at this stage of, the eleven's development no chances of a loss through injury will be taken...
