EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:- At their first class meeting, it is usually the custom for the freshmen to elect three captains to take charge, respectively, of the football, baseball and crew interests. This year a change has been proposed, towards the consideration of which I call the attention of Ninety-two. It has been proposed that the class, at its meeting, elect no football captain. Mr. Sears, captain of the 'varsity eleven, has kindly offered to take charge of the candidates for the freshman team and see to it that they are thoroughly trained. Then the team, after it has been chosen, will select its own captain. The scheme has much to recommend it. The advantages to the candidates in having the personal supervision and advice of Mr. Sears are apparent. There is always, necessarily, more or less time lost in getting the candidates for the freshman football team into regular training, and at this season of the year, when each day of practice is so valuable, every effort should be made to increase the chances which the freshmen have for defeating Yale '92. Much will be done in aiding their eleven if the freshmen vote the proposed scheme.
