on Saturday are trihe mixed. There are
an sorts OF Yale money waiting TO be
placed at even money. bat there has also
been some betting IN Wall Street at odds

m addition 10 the occasional bets at 10 TO 8
yesterday. there was one OF 500 20 SO with
Yale on the long end But this last wager
was probably made 20 break tke even
money deadlock and produce Yale cash at
slightly shorter odds.
Fred DAILY. the Yale hslfback whose in
Juries in the Princeton game will appsr-
entity keep him out Of the struggle on sat
urday. halls from Cambridge Mass. and
he is working his way through Yale. as he
did through Andover lie is one Of the best
defensive hacks on the Yale team. II he
had played against Harvard. and done as
well as his work against Princeton prom
ised. DAILY would probably have been the
choice for captain next year. lie may he.
even now. OF course but If Fitzpatrick
plays such a game against the Crimson
as ne did against Princeton he is likely 10
mako a hard fight for the honor.
Speaking OF DAILY. a Yale man. living at
Cambridge. the home OF Harvard, recalls
tho fact that Bergin. the Princeton quar-
terhack. lives i'm New Haven.
The Harvard Dartmouth same was not a
love feast. by any means. being about as
lard fought an affair as The season has
seen but the friendly feeling that prevails
was plainly shown by Captain Clark Tobin
captain Fish's team certainly has my best
wishes and the best wishes Of the Dart
mouth team for next Saturday"
captain Tobin. who mas played against
both teams is ono Of the Dartmouth PLAY
ers Nho think that Harvard this year IS
much better than the winning Harvard Of
year ago Naturally. he thinks the eleven
is much stronger than Princeton's. ON
rho offence SAYS TObin. Harvard Is very
strong. The attack is quick and we'll con
cealed and the line men charge beautifully.
on defence Harvard is strong, too. The
line mon charge low and hard, and the
secondary defence supports Them admlra-
hly. Tie same secondary defence seems to
know how 10 check any attempts at the
open game.
''Ilsreard is especially strong in having
tho wealth OF substitute material that she
has. They arc very nearly as good as The
frsi-string men, and il was by their aid
largely that Harvard succeeded in wearing
Dartmouth out"
The way those substitutes played must
have beer balm TO Percy Hsughton's soul.
Harvard started the season with one good
team and a poor lot OF substitutes, Dat has
apparently Strengthened that matter out.
Tom keady. one Of the dartmouth grad
uatc coaches, was particularly loud in his
praise ot Bush captain !7ish's substitute
at night tackle saving that the loss Of Fish
in thc second half mado little difference.
Nesd-. ny IN. way. revived the carly sea
Ion criticism Of Fish for Interfering with
O-Flaherts's signals saving that the at
