With such an abundance of material and enthustasm Stanford is also fortunate in having the strongest corps of coaches she has had for years, if not the strongest in all her history. Coach Chamberlin is as- sisted each evening by “Jack” Reynolds, the star half in '95, and Charles Lewers, another of Stanford’s old players. Each of them dons the moleskin and puts the men through much individual tral their “ualuons. Wit Chamberlin hopes to build up center trio that will compare favo ¢ with that of two years ago. De Forest is ex: pected to complete the trio by playing his old position at left guard. He is consid- ered one of the most promising men who entered college this vear, on account of his long experience with the Multnomah team in Portland.
