Friends of Harvard Disguised With
Last Game.

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 12.-Harvard
graduates and undergraduates alike
were disgusted with the showing of the
varsity eleven in the game with Panu-
sylvania on Saturday. They were dunn
founded at the miserable efforts of their
pets to defeat Pennsylvania The team
had been cracked up to be a corker, and
the equal of the aggregation led by
Dave" Campbell last fall
That the eleven lacked spirit was
clearly evident from the start: that
team work was wanting was demon
strated time and again, when Pennsyl-
vania should have been run back to its
own goal line, so great was the advan-
tage of weight in favor of Harvard. The
big giants were outplayed by the quick
little QUakers, who seemed determined
only to crevent Harvard from scoring,
and not TO score themselves. 1t is the
general opinion,,in football circles that
Pennsylvania would have. beaten Har-
ward had it put uo a more determined
ofense.
All the critics. including Coaches Wa
tiers, Dean, Farley, and Lewis. are I'M
animous in their statements that the
crimson eleven showed little aggressive
ness, and all agree a big brace must be
taken before the Yale game if a credit
able showing is to be made.
Several changes probably VIII be
made in the varsit-- eleven this week
as the result of the game. The ends
must be strengthened. new center will
be developed. and the back field is apt
to be changed
