The picture of the freshman eleven will be taken at 1.30 today.

Since the beginning of the winter term, the candidates for positions on the battery of the University nine have been working steadily; today they are joined by the candidates for other positions on the team. The captain intends, we believe, to make the preliminary indoor training of the men a trifle lighter than usual, and to lend redoubled energies to the work as soon as outdoor training begins.

There will be no great change, however, in the way of training the nine from the methods of former years. Nevertheless, the prospects for success seem to us brighter than ever before. The effect of the work done in football and of the victory won will surely be felt; and above all the spirit of earnestness which has begun to prevade our athletics will go far towards making the season a successful one.
