Bob Folwell. coach of the Washing
ION and Jefferson football eleven. thinks
Harvard and Yale are we'll matched.
He says in "The Daily Princetonian": /
"As q result of the Two games IN .
which W and J. met Yale and Harvard. !
| have come 10 the conclusion that ,
there is little 10 choose between tne /
Two teams. Harvard showed the result .
of beino an older team. more familiar
v.ith their work. we'll drilled and well I
trained. Yale. OF the other hand. Is d
newer team. with a more advanced
gar,e Of football and well drilled ac-
cordingly.
Harvard pat up stronger defence
.Da;us+ our team. while Yale showed n
faster and more dashing offence. Both
teams were uowerful and showed the
effects Of good coaching, being far su-
perior 70 any teams we have played
againsJ in the last two years. Their
lighting spirit is invlnclble. being
prominent az all times and always TO
be admired.
"W. and J. was weakened by the loss
o. two Of her best men against Har-
ward and had ner full team in the field
against Yale. ii we had played as well
against Harvard as we did in the Yale
eame. I think that the result would
have been greatly different. As it was,
we showed better form than Yale, while
Harvard showed up better than did
s. W. and J. The Yale game, however,
was marrcd b. frequent fumbles on
the part o. the ". and J. backs
The leaven is working. The Williams
College "PecOrd" says editOrially;
Not until recently has the custom
Of numbering football players gained
widespread acceptance among the col
leee teams. Yet circumstances favor
the adoption Of The practice, for the ad-
vantages Of the scheme from the spec
tator's point of view have been found
TO be numerous, and as yet no serious
objections have Seen raised. The 1914
season has progressed too far for a
change this year But next fall. if in
dications point 70 the general utiliza
tion Of the numerals system among the
colleges, Williams also viii number her
