Dr. Stroud has not returned from his home in California, but is expected j in a few days, while Captain Norman is 1 here and will start the men in at '.gh work. The p'.ospects for this yea: a.e any thing but blight, with the loss of fi<e of last year's best men Three of these graduated—G let , center; Zella. s. quat ter. and Conger, guard. Foxworth. :ta:f, and Cook, end. will net return. The men returning are: Heinsohn.! center; Huguley, guard; Mills ami Kelley, tackles; Forrester, end; Irwin, half, and Captain Norman, full. Ket ley. Mills and Norman are the on tv men that have had much experience, and it is mostly on these that the Orange and Black supporters mil.:', rely. The others, while for the mos’ part good men. are inexperienced. Mercer can not count much on the new men. Os these, however. Holman, who played center at Norman Parr, looks pretty good. Grice, a brother of last year's center, will also be out fm the team, but he i» young and knows practically nothing of the game. This bunch does not look very prom ising-, but it is hoped that Dr. Stroud can build a machine that will be abl.e to hold its own. EVANS DEFEATS HILTON FOR LOW MEDAL SCORE CHICAGO GOLF CLUB.
