C. I. has had since the fire in 1899. :. The team started out with rather poor prospects. Because of the non-appearance of Capt. Urner it was necessary to choose another to fill the vacancy. Fuller, right tackle of the '06 team, was selected for the position and men were soon forthcoming from the scrubs and new men to fill the ranks, that were thinned by the graduation ofsome of our best players and the inability to return on the part of others upon whom we had counted greatly. The team started in with a defeat at the hands of the Lafayette Sophomores but retrieved this by an easy vic- tory over the Lafayette Freshmen. Two defeats were administered by Erasmus Hall and Princeton Prep. res- pectively. A Following this our eleven greatly improved in form and speed, several valuable men, who had been out of the game on account of injuries rejoined the team and victory again fell to cur lot. The High School of Commerce succumbed to defeatg Bethlehem Prep., although outplayed in every stage of the game tied us. Peddie In- stitute was the next victim to fall before our victorious eleven.

In consideration of the fact that Blair Hall since that time had always triumphed over us by a large margin we can justly say, that the 1907 eleven was superior to all of its predecessors.

The '07 team extends its best wishes to the '08 aggregation, realizing that under the matchless leadership and instruction of our esteemed coach, Pro- fessor Denman, it cannot fail to hold aloft the banners of the Blue and Black. 22 a t t f T
