dent that a respectable showing will be
made against Harvard.
Eighteen men besides the manager

chusetts trip and as the playing of the
substitutes who will be taken is at

of good men to put in in case of acci-
dent. while but little material differ
ence in the strength of the team will
be noted There seems to be an abun-
dance of backs this year and many are
