4. Harvard Is Wide Awake.
Last fall Harvard was surprised by
the strength of the Princeton team,
which finally was beaten only to 0
by means of a field goal kicked by
Brickley, whose services will not be
available against the Jerseymen this
week. Because of this close game
and the belief that Princeton has been
coming along fast lately, the Harvard
coaches spent most of last week get
ting their team keen for the Tiger
plays. Not until the last two days
was much attention paid to what
might be expected from Michigan.
1t was also in pursuance of the
policy to be sure to be ready for Cap
tain Ballin's team that Harvard on
Saturday did not allow either Mahan
or Pennock to get into the game. Both
could have played had the Crimson
been in need of score in order to
pull out the game in the last quar-
ter; but this was not the case, and
Harvard was able to beat the VOL
4 verines and to save a couple of very
important football players besides.
Both Mahan and Pennock are right
now and in condition where they can
do some hard work this week without
cumming very great chances.

Talbot About Ready.
Although Captain Talbot, of Yale,
did not get into his uniform for prac-
tice yesterday five other Yale men
who have been on the hospital list
were in action, and IL was expected
Talbot would resume work today.
stiff practice will be in order through
cut the week.
Some Thuds at Cambridge.
The Harvard Michigan game Sat-
urday was as pretty a fought battle
as one might want to see. and but for
poor headwork Michigan should have
at least tied the game. Her peculiar
formations puzzled the Crimson play
ers, and this, combined with the Won
derful line breaking of Maulbetsch,
almost proved the undoing of Haugh-
toms team. 1t was only the tremend-
Gus fighting ability of the whole Har-
ward eleven, and especially the sec
ondary defense, which saved them
from a rout. They fought Michigan
every step all the way down the field,
harder and harder, until even the
granite-like Maulbetsch weakened as
ne neared the Crimson goal Time and
again the Michigan backs shot
through the Harvard line, only to be
hit like a ton of bricks by the backs.
Some of the hardest collisions ever
seen on football field occurred when
Maulbetsch shot through and was hit
by Bradlee and Hardwick, the pow
erful halfbacks of Harvard. The thud
could be heard in the grand stand,
and 1t was remarkable the way these
men stood up under the gruelling.

W. "a J. Looking for IAN American"
Washington and Jefferson will have
TO be reckoned with when 1t comes
time to announce the makeup of the
All-American eleven. Spiegel, Elem
ing and Goodwin all gave excellent
accounts of themselves In the tri-
umph over Yale. The w. & j. men
were equally efficient at the open
game as the Ellis. After the per-
formances of Yale against Notfe
Dame at this style of play, 1t was
expected that they would work Won
ders against w. & ]. But Folwell S
proteges did not encounter much diff
Guilty in breaking UP Yale forward
passes and registered both their
touchdowns via the forward pass
route. Folwell has q wonderful col
lection of gridiron performers this
season.
Harvard Out in Full Strength.
With Pennock and Mahan in the
lineup the Harvard team began its
preparations for Princeton. One of
the stunts which Mahan pulled off
was to boot the pigsl1in over the
cross bar fifteen times from the If
teen-yard line Brickley was out on
tile same line using his left toe, and
rs missed one of fifteen tries. Charles
d. Daley. who led the Harvard team
, i'> 1900 watched the Crimson at work.
He is now coaching West Point. The
fact that the coaches are laying Spe-
cial stress on the kicking of goals
may be bit significant, though no
one knows Just what IIarvar.l has
nm her sleeve. The team will be de-
cidedly stronger than last Saturday.
when neither Mahan nor Pennock
played.
Things to Worry About at Penn.
The u. of P. scrubs tried Michigan
formations against the varsity and
were driven hard in practice yester-
day. A new worry has been troubling
the coaches. Many of the Red and
Rlne players are from the South, and
II is feared that the cold weather
expected in Ann Arbor may wreak
havoc with their work.
