Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-11-23
YALE.HARvARD TOMORROW.
A Record Breaking Crowd Expected
 in the Elm City,

Before one of the largest crowds
 that ever packed into the Yale en-
 closure, Harvard and the blue team will undoubtedly put up the best ex- hibition of the season at New Haven
 tomorrow. Both teams are in excellent
 condition and although Yale's star,
 little halfback, Bill Knox, will be out
 of the game, his successor, Bomar, is
 of the right material and will without
 doubt play a strong game. There Is still much i'll feeling in the Yale camp because of the action of Harvard in regard to officials, and Yale will try as never tried before to make her oppon- entS bite the dust. The coaches are confident that the crimson eleven will be second best.
 Tickets for the game have been scarcer than in years. 1t is long time since there was such a demand for tickets, none could be placed on sale, but that was the situation this season.
 Waterbury will send a big contin- gent to the game and, of course, al most all the Waterburians will be Yale rooters.
 Although the general opinion Is that Yale Is slightly better than Harvard, Ralph Boomer, the Yale coach, who predicted 0 to 0 score for last Sat urdoy's game expects to see the same score tomorrow. He bases his opinion on the fact that Harvard appears to be tritle better in attacking, and has also a shade the better in the bunting department. But Yale's defensive game is stronger than Harvard's and tie better. But with Knox out of the game there is some little worry over the fact that Yale will not have good man to catch and run back punts. Ind Jones also most lost his place because of his inability in this line, but he may have improved in the past two weeks.
 Princeton was supposed to be much better than Yale in the bunting de- partment, but Veeder more than held up his end and might do as well as Burr tomorrow.
 Coach Reid seems to be very confi- dent and he speaks so we'll of his team that many wonder if 1t is the equal of 1901 eleven. If 1t is Yale should suf- fer defeat tomorrow, but is 1t? That's the question.
 The Yale coaches are expecting much harder game tomorrow than a week ago and have not at all under estimated the strength of Harvard ev- en though the Dartmouth scores would make Princeton look much better than the Cambridge team. Both teams had very light practice yesterday. Har- yard at her quarters at Morris cove, New Haven, ran through a few sig nals and also spent some time in breaking up certain plays which the coaches think the Yale team will try. Newhall tried few drop kicks, while Burr, to keep his foot in practice sent off few long punts. Kernsberg, Starr, and Captain Foster, who have been in the sick list were conspicuous because of the energy they put into their work, and seem to have fully re- covered from their injuries. When Reid was asked if his men were c0nti- dent of winning he replied that they were so much so that there was no room for anything else within. He had very little to say about the wan gle he had with the Yale coaches over the selection of the officials.
 The Yale coaches as well as the students can see no reason why Yale will not win. Yesterday $1,5OO. which was sent from Harvard to New Haven to be placed at even money was snap ped up in jiffy and the men are snap ing for more. All the men are in good condition and are aroused to a high fighting pitch and will strain. every effort to rub it into Harvard. It must be taken into consideration that iale is also playing on her own field before her own crowd and this will help con siderably. The game should be hummer with honors about even, al- though Yale may be considerably weakened by the absence of Knox.
 The second game of importance will be fought between Dartmouth and Brown. Brown thinks 1t has it on the green and white this year and expects to make up for last years defeat. AL though Captain Glaze of Dartmouth is confident of victory, Coach Folsom says he would look to see Brown win.
