Brown will lose only five regulars from her successful 1915 football team by graduation, with the result that the prospects for next year are exceptionally good. Almost all of the players who came into prominence this season will be eligible next fall. The greatest blow to the team will be the loss of Captain Andrews at halfback, who all through the season has proved a capable leader. In addition to his work in the backfield, Andrews was the best punter on the team. He was also a drop kicker of some ability, his field goal being the only score in the Brown-Yale game and enabling the Providence team to capture a 3-0 victory. The other backfield man to go is Saxton. Although this was his first year as first-string player, he proved a fairly reliable fullback, being especially good on the defence. The absence of Staff and Maxwell, the two guards, will leave a big hold in the centre of the line. Staff had played on the team three years, and he proved equally efficient at both guard and centre. Maxwell is another three-year veteran. Though handicapped by injuries this past season, he was always the strongest in the centre of the line. The fifth man to graduate is Ormsby, regular end for the past two years.

Out of the wealth of material returning Coach Robinson should have little trouble in developing a team even stronger than this year's. Pollard stands out as the star of the 1916 eleven. Although inclined to be erratic, this player by his clever dodging running made himself the chief ground-gaining asset of the team this fall. With more experience the should develop into a phenomenal halfback. Besides Pollard there are such men as Purdy, Jemail, and Murphy in the backfield. These, with Sprague, Ward, and Wade, to bolster up the forwards, should produce a strong combination next year.
