VETERAN NUCLEUS FOR CORNELL

Return of Seven Regulars Puts Ithacan Eleven in Front Rank.

In anticipation of next fall's football season, enthusiasts begin to wonder what team will capture next year's Intercollegiate Championship. Interest naturally turns to Cornell, to whom the honors fell last year.

Seven veterans from last year's championship team will serve as a strong nucleus about which another strong team should develop. These men are Mueller, Shiverick, Eckley, Miller, Anderson, Tilley, and Gillies. The loss of Collins by graduation leaves Shiverick as the only veteran half-back, but Benedict, Hoffman, Van Horn and Carr form a good squad of players from which an excellent back-field should be made up. Mueller will undoubtedly remain in his old position of fullback. With the loss of Barrett, comes a large gap to be filled in the form of a quarterback. Shock, last year's substitute for this position, will be lost by graduation, so that Speed and Hill who were used some in that position are the only second-string men left from last year's squad. Bretz, last year's 1919 quarterback, is a likely candidate for this position.

Cornell will have a strong line, with such men as Gillies, Tilley, Jewett, Dixton, Anderson, Miller, Bard, McCormick, Miles, Brown, and Carry to be chosen from. Eckley, Zander, and Ryerson will all be back next year, thus making the positions at end easy to fill.
