Special Correspondence Of The Star
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, September %. 1905.
The Harvard varsity eleven will formally
open it's playing schedule next Saturday
afternoon with Williams College on Sol
diers' Field Cambridge. The Williams
bows have always given the Crimson war
riors a good argument, but this season
they will find Harvard in good physical con-
ditlon and capable of putting up a stiff
argument.
Bill Reid. the head coach, does not want
to take any chances with his players and
the limbering up work the past ten days
has progressed on a scientific basis, in
which only a very few men have been laid
up The injuries are light and the entire
hospital squad is expected out tomorrow in
shape to get into a fast scrimmage.
In drilling the men so far Coach Reid
has paid a delicate compliment TO Hurry
Up" Yost Of Michigan by following care
fully the Iatter's system of campaigning
in the first couple of weeks. Yost, Reid
and Lewis had a conference during the
summer in which Yost pointed out the fall
lacy OF injuring men in the early stunts.
Acting on Yosts advice Reid cut out fall
ing on the bali and hard breaking
through" AS result Reid finds the ma
jority of his candidates in fine condition
for the hard work promised this coming
week. The linemen in particular can thank
Yost for his kindness in giving Reid point
ers as the forwards have not met with a
single injury, while in years gone by quite
a few were down and out at the end OF the
first week These forwards are now well
limbered up and by the middle of the week
should be able to stand a gruelling period
of twenty-five minutes more. The old
coaches would like to put the linemen
through scrimmage stunts on the opening
day. but Reid viii not listen to their ad-
monitions and intends to follow out his own
ideas and those Of Yost.

Reid is not unduIy pleased with the ma
terial given him 20 develop. In comparing
1t with the candidates for the team he
coached in 1901 Reid is not so fortunate,
and he says he viii thank his lucky stars
