hard row to hoe. and the beginning Of the
real test Of her teams worth Is at hand.
Equally As attractive as the Columbia Amherst
game ia the Harvard West Point fixture at
West Point, This contest always has large
New York patronage, and also draws literally
from cities along the Hudson River. 1t is
rarely that West Point fails to give both
Harvard and Yale all they can attend to, and
the arranging Of the West Point Annapolis
game has given the soldiers additional life.
The Yale cripples play Pennsylvania State
to-day and in view of the size OF the hospital
list nj New Haven the eQualling OF Pennsyl-
vania's score against Pennsylvania State is
not expected Princeton meets the Indians.
The Tigers have lacked consistency in their
games to date and are as likely to make a big
score as small one against the Red Men.
The Dartmouth Williams game is an import
ant one and promises as much excitement
as any other. The likely New York University
eleven will play its second game of the season.
