MahOn to Be Kept in Reserve,
According to Harvard Coaches

NEW YORK, Nov S.-The Harvard
football team paused here on it's way
TO meet Princeton in the annual game
on Osborne Field. The players were
quartered in an uptown hotel, where
they had a chance to use large BALI
room for signal practise last night.
Head Coach Haughton announced
THAT Bradlee would be started at half
: back today, in place of Mahan. It
was understood, however. that tho
latter would be reserved for the later
periods Of the game, in order to
take the place OF Brickley, in case
the drop-kicking halfback became
exhausted. Mahan's progress at goal
kicking from the field has been one
efsFIarvard's chief assets.
Trainer Donovan said that with the
exception of Trumbull, every Har-
ward player was in fine condition.
