COMPARISON OF THE TEAMS.
YALE HAS THE LARGER NUMBER
 OF VETERAN PLA YERS.
Pounds, of Which 1,332 are in the Ltne-Harvard's Total Weight is ,96S, but the Line is Lighter Than Yale's Latter Scored on but Once This Year.

The Yale varsity eleven of 1900 con-
 tains more veterans than for some
 years, seven of the men having played
 before in the big games against Har-
 yard and Princeton. In weight the l team averages about the same as on previous years, but it differs from past
 varsity elevens in that the line is ex- ceptionally heavy. The total weight of the team is 1860 pounds of which 1882 pounds is in the line, leaving 647 pounds of bone and muscle behind to do the running and line bucking. This makes an average of 6S per cent. of the total weight of the team in the line, while 32 per cent. is behind it.
 The Yale eleven this year developed very quickly and gave promise early in the season of being one of the strongest that ever represented the college The first games were all won on large mar gins and the season appeared very rosy until the eleven met Columbia in New York, when there came a slump and the blue and white scored for the first time against Yale in 1900. The Co., 1umbia game, however, was a great benefit to the eleven, as it brought out many of it's weak points, and the team was so strengthened that it came up rapidly and in two weeks time almost swept the Carlisle Indians off the field, much to the qualification of the coach- CTS. Yale has been fortunate this year in that but two of the star players have received injuries before the big game The statistics of the team follow:
