Brown Team Left This Afternoon for
New YORK to Play Columbia Tomorrow.
Only One Of Visiting Teams Won in
New England Bowling League Games.

Tomorrow Brown will meet the Colum-
bia team at New York. and though the
Brown and White will probably be with
out the services Of Captain Barry. and
Hascall may not be In shape to play
should he be needed the team will be
IN good form. The team left this city
this afternoon at o'clock. a large body
of the students accompanying the team
70 the union station and repeatedly cheer
ing the men.
The manifestation of college spirit has
been decidedly unusual this year and cer-
tain Il liz that the team has had the
best of support from the college. The
team has been backed UP no matter what
has happened and the team has done
nobly on every occasion.
The work OF the team OF subs against
Tufts was something Of an eye-opener to
the people Of This city as a whole. and IL
was decidedly pleasing 10 the student
body OF the college. The TUFTS team
was not by any means the best team
that could represent that college. for
Tufts has been unfortunate IN having
some OF her best men put out OF the
game because OF injuries. But for all
that the team played with admirable
spirit and pluck. The team was simply
overwhelmed by Brown, and while IL can
not be said that the game was a basis
for comparison. yet II was two inferior
elevens playing.
But IL would seem to be very encourage
ing for Brown that II has so good ma
terial for Il Is fair 10 assume there Will
be no apparent let-up in the work OF the
team. IL Is considered that Brown
should win from Columbia tomorrow.
even with such a star a S Captain Barry
out OF the game Columbia lost TO
Princeton Fl TO a week ago and TO Penn
IL 10 two weeks since. Brown defeated
the Quakers easily. but II Is fair to pre-
sumo Penn was In somewhat better form
when Columbia played that team.
The Brown team should be In fine fettle
tomorrow. The regular team will be in
the field save Captain Barry. and his
place will probably be filled by Lynch.
Lynch showed up finely in the Tufts
game. though he did not show the best OF
form against Harvard.
Lynch Is coming constantly, however:
he Is speedy and Is gaining experience
rapidly. But. OF course. he is not Cap
tain Barry.
II may be considered safe 10 assume
the teams will be about equal in strength
and on this basis. with the hard expert
ence OF the Brown team the Brown and
White ought 10 win, but not by a large
score, IL Is not reasonable 10 believe
that Brown will keep Columbia from
scoring, yet stranger things have hap
pened. There has been reports from Col
umbia that the team has showed UP mis-
erably in practice this week. but braced
up yesterday. Captain Weeks showed up
at practice yesterday but Buffalo Smith
and Thorpe were not out
The work OF the Brown team yester-
day was confined 10 signal practice. The
field was wet and muddy but the work
went along well. with life and vigor. The
men were I'm good form and the coaches
look for vigorous and hard play tomor-
row. IL was thought this morning that
Captain Barry might start I'm the game
with Columbia, but this was an uncer-
tainty at the best. There has neen great

deal of interest. and the attendance ought |
