Mitchell is listed at 6'1" and Adams at 5'11" The 9th player does appear to be more comparable in height to Mitchell than Adams. Moving McArthur from the second from right on the top row would free the place for Kafora and Cooper could be moved to seventh from right in the bottom row.

I agree with Ollie McArthur (as he is called in the newspaper accounts) in the back row, eighth from the left; Wilbur Cooper in the front row, seventh from the right; Frank Kafora in the back row, second from the right (I had previously placed him here among my IDs).
I also feel strongly that in the front row it is Al Wagner fifth from the left. See my post #282.
One more change--I am now convinced that Marty O'Toole is in the back row, sixth from left, trading places with Joe Kelly, who should be in the front row, second from right. See the images below. These are the only remaining differences between our IDs.
O'Toole / BR 6L / Kelly / FR 2R
