while i'm the West Chicago turns deaf
ear to requests for games. This leaves
the Redmen in serious predicament

Harvard not Afraid.
1t Is curious commentary on inter-
collegiate matters that the Indians are
indirectly obliged to suffer thus because
they have such Il strong team. How
ever. it should not be said or inferred
even that Harvard refused to schedule
IA game with the Indians for fear of a
heating. The Crimson soundly trOunced
the Redmen last year and suffered their
only defeat from them the year pre-
vious. Harvard had to make a choice
between the Indians and Brown. and
chose the latter because Brown is a
college institution strictly and Carlisle
is not
In another way. however. Carlisle is
suffering because her team is so strong.
Harvard has an unusually heavy sched-
ule mapped out for this fall with
games against Cornell. Dartmouth and

harder to defeat than any team on the
schedule with the exception of Yale
1t was not unexpected then that IIar-
