W. C. Rhodes, '91, who has been elected captain of the Yale eleven for next year has had considerable experience as a foot ball player. He played on his class team the first year he went to Exeter in the fall of '85. The next year he was one of the best men on the Academy eleven which defeated Andover 26 to nothing. In his freshman year at Yale he was first substitute on the 'varsity being called out to play in both the Harvard and the Princeton games. Last year he was tackle on the Yale team and played a fine game against Cowan in the Princeton game. He was considered one of the best men in the rush-line and at the end of the season was elected captain for this year. When Gill decided to come back, however, he resigned in his favor. He is a strong player, a good leader, and will doubtless bring out a strong team for Yale next season.
