Wesleyan Captain Dixon leads the Red and Black in a 7:30 p.m. home game against Brown on the last 1919 Wesleyan schedule. Brown, weakened by injuries after a Yale contest and a late defeat by Williams, is considered less dangerous.

Bruner of Columbia, Pa. was elected manager of the Wesleyan tennis team for next season. Debating selections were made for the sophomore and freshman teams, with League of Nations questions guiding the matchup. A dual debate with Bowdoin is planned around May 15.
