BULLETINS SPECIAL YALE LETTER
Students Display Their Confidence in Football Team by Big Parade-Ten Eyck for Coach of the Crews Executive Committee of Associated New England Yale Clubs Preparing for Business.

New Haven, Nov. 13.-Undergraduate Yale found" itself last night, and backed by the greatest fighting Yale spirit that New Haven has seen in years, the eleven is going in Saturday with the bulldog determination that means victory. The team came back in glorious fashion in Saturdays game against Brown, and regardless of the opinion of the outside world, the Yale eleven will show the Tigers something this week. That is what the march of 3,9g0 undergraduates through New Haven streets meant last night. It showed enthusiastic confidence in team that will not be beaten.
 mass meeting was held Tuesday night and it was a big one and full of spirit. But Wednesday it was a spon- taneous outburst. the kind that Yale has needed for years. to bring out the best that is in it. There was abun- dant evidence in the city and on the campus last night that the old Yale spirit still beats strong.
 The sound of band crashing through the campus was the first ia timation to the students outside Of the few men on the inside that something unusual was up. But a couple of min utes sufficed to empty the campus dor mitories and then the band and the torch bearers and the line of cheering, singing students swung out into Elm street and around through SheHtoWn, gathering scores all along the line, Then the chain twisted its way back to the college campus, stopping before Captain Ketchams window in Welch. He followed the long cheer, with nine Ketchams on the end.w this speech; By golly. Yale is going to fight To the end Saturday. That Is all he would say and then there was another long cheer fer him and others for every member of the varsity team. Finally there was lCng cheer for the team of 'S8, who were having an anniversary banquet at the Taft, as the guest or their captain, William H. Corbin, and to make the men of 'SS fully aware of their presence the whole line marched over to the Taft, blocked College street and cheered until the banquet CTS appeared Captain Corbin express ed the belief that Yale would clean up Princeton on Saturday, and Heffeihn- ger. the old guard, thought so, too.
 For the big games a number of the first string men will be back, among them Pendleton, Talbot Brand ana Carter in the line. and notably Pun- belly in the backfield- The odds of Captain Ketcham, who by the way is a class deacon, has taken a decided stand against betting.
 Downpours of rain before and dur ina the aame made the Yale- Brown aarne not so spectacular as it usually is, for though the Whiffenpoofs were there their hiIarity was dimmed by moisture without and the muddy con- dition of the field slowed up the op- posing elevens. Brown was weak in following the ball and Yale was strong. Yales line showed strength and lots of drive was shown in the last half of the game. It was Wondef1ul improvement from the previous week and the way that Wilson at quarter back ran the team was the most heart ening thing about the game. He showed good headwork in tight places, once carrying the ball. after the half back had missed signals, for five wards and a first down. Knowles in the baekheld was another man the critics praised.
