IAMfhlDuE, MASS, NOV. To-day WAN
no easy Monday for the Harvard football
men who went through Saturdays hard
match against Michigan. Every regular
player except Centre Rush Wallace was
ordered into toys and for an hour and
a half tho work was as hard as Il usually
is in tho middle of the week. From now
on Harvard will do little real scrimmag
ing. but the soft football, so called. Ia
almost as hard on tho men--certainly
more tresome.
With Bigelow playing centre, where
he was in most of Saturdays game, the
Harvard team, with Pennock back a, right
guard, HIardwick at right end and Ma
han In the backfeld again, looked like
the real article Wallace is expected
to get into the game in day or two. and
as there probably will be no real foot
ball playing all week there is every reason
to believe that the Crimson will be able
/ to send Its strongest possible team against
Princeton on Saturday. The dummy work
| against the substitutes was almost az
! strenuous as actual football. and when
II was over the players were all in.
The scrubs are getting ready with moro
Princeton plays and several days this
week will be spent preparing the defence.
D
offence. some new forward passes being
tried. and also much work being done to
polish up the line attack.

was expected after his layoff. Charley
Daley, the Army ooaoh. was on che field
to-day. the old Harvard captain being
shown about all tho offence the Crimson
now has on tap.
