the greatest line-hue Mug halt-back on

doubtedly play foot ball. He is still
eligible to play, as he has only played
thiee years
Kelly's letutn to college may change
the aspect of the election of next
yeai's foot ball captain. It was
thought that Johnny Halid would suie

more foi Pilncoton with tho possible

It Is believed that Kelly would ac
