two teams been so well ma chtd, all d that
the struggle will b. Ihoroug y ame
one. There WAS "a ball last night in no or
OF the two colleges by the society peop.e Of
the city.
Hard to Figure on Result.
For the past two seasons and partly
since he introduc ion Of the wed g-. the
plays OF in ivldual men, so iuteres ing to
the spectators, have become less, and in
place OF them have come the ma s-plHying
that p events the BAH from being seen 10y
the spectators, and productive of more in
Jury t. the players. IL Is an almo.t fore
gone conclusion among the adherens OF
both teams that Yalr has ~ lras two new
methods of wed ge-playin2 that they expt ct
TO spring on Harvard. but tue hackers Of
the latter disparage such attempts.
. Harvard has practiced successfully her
flying and opening wedge at kickoff, and
expect TO II ud easier work in opening the
cen ter for Brewer t. 90 through, a Lewis
Is doing psgn ficent work at center and is
expected tn be the vi mt Of the game
Then, too, Brewer is apt To please the pop
ulace by getting "A chance To run. lie is
by far the most brilliapt man b hind the
line. On the contrary, Yale Is sure that
she can use her own particular center
wedge on n down and that even Harvard 5
strong rush line cannot stop il altogether.
One thing is certain; 50 evenly are the
teams matched that it will on,y be by sur
prses tuat any great advantale will be
gained. III either eleven makes gain a
new play aud repeat it, they will by such
a surprise dlshearten their op Ionrnts.
There have been 10 changes Of note In
either OF the teams except Ihat OF sub,ti-
tuting Adee for quarter IN Yale instead Of
Morris, who is said not to be in condition.
As to Yale's condit on, Coacher Wur-
tenburRh, who himself played quar- e. on
Yale for three years, laid: "The Yale
team has the best defense line she has ever
put on the gridIron, and her offensive line
is fully the equal of former years. Ny own
opinion Of the game is that Il Yale can
prevent Harvard scoring for the first Is
minutes the crimson will never score at
ALL"
Harvard men laugh at this statement,
however, and say that their eleven will
show as much endurance as that of Yale
The Teams on Hand.
