. Eliunihali lt is a well established :fact that when a crowd attends an athletic game they anticipate a close and exciting contest. Therefore, judging by the gate receipts, the football team of 704 must have put up a stronger and more interesting exhibition than any of its predecessors, but as the opposing teams had also increased their knowledge of the science of the game, the relative positions of the teams in the league remains about the same as last year. The game went to East Providence on a fluke and the Classical game was lost on very costly fumbles at critical moments. Hope administered three very decisive defeats to Moses Brown School, and one each to WVoonsocket, English and Technical. Captain Seabury's call for football men was responded to' by twenty-six candi- dates, eighteen of whom received the much coveted H, and all finished the season without serious injuries except McKenna, who sprained his ankle as in 302, and this being his second offence, he was sentenced to be captain for '05, The attendance and enthusiasm of the students at the games was most encourag- ing to the players and stimulated them as nothing else could, as all of us can testify who witnessed the stubborn fight, when Hope held East Providence on their two yard line. . The following team was picked after strenuous practice: McKenna, l. e. Allen, l. t. Clark, l. gx Ross, e. Babcock, r. g. MCN aught, r. t. Packard, r. e. Sack, q. b. Seabury, QCapt.j l. h. b. Budlong, r, h. b. Harkness, f. b. Loughran and Donahue did very good work as substitutes for left end and full-back. In spite of the good material, the brilliant individual playing, and the backs, who were the heaviest and the fastest in the league, the team work, which would have Won the championship, was lacking. ' Seaburyls punting, Budlong,s kick-off, and Packardls goal kicking, could be depended on every time. Harkness was a. good ground gainer and hit the line low and hard. Sack at quarter-back handled the team with great discretion. Ross at centre was a tower of strength and was ably supported by Clark and Babcock. Seabury's line bucking and Budlongis hurdling kept the opposingteams guessing all of the time. Captain Seabury deserves great credit for producing a harmonious and spirited eleven who gave him their hearty support on all occasions. Manager 21
