who confessed he stole ~ tickets
from the rooms OF Yale students.
and another young man who says
he Is a Harvard student. Every
hotel In New Haven Is full. and
cots we're placed in the halls last
night to give many a place 20 sleep.
The railroad companies left trains
OF Pullman cars standing In their
yards. and hundreds spent the night
In them.
Forty thousand automobiles are
expected by game time. and al

filled. Hundreds were unable 10

Night In the streets.
The Harvard team spent the night
in New London. and will come TO
New Haven about noon. Every
member OF the squad is reported In
excellent condition. The Yale team
was sent 10 bed early. and was up
with the sun today. Every member

ton OF Quarterback Trayer Smith.

Much interest attaches TO the
probable use By Percy Haughtou OF
a lad named Ryan. former Notre
Dame student. who gained much
fame as receiver OF forward
passes. He Is expected 10 be sent
Into the contest. Yale's well known
weakness against this style OF play
may be means OF saving Harvard
should the Blue-clad clan begin %
whip their ancient foes.
But aside from this. II Is no Sc
cret that In Horween. Casey and
Thatcher, not TO speak OF Robinson
or Murray. Harvard has a classy
backfield. No matter what may be
said Of Harry Legore. or Jacques. or
Braden. or any OF the others who
are sporting Blue jerseys. tho fact
remains that Casey and Horween
are two OF the most versatile young
men the football field OF 1916 has
Horveen Is able to punt a.
= ~ so yards every time he swing rs
his leg. and his feat In putting over
a field goal on Princeton proves he
knows something about drop kick
ing.
Legore OF Yale IL fast. a smart
runner and hard line smasher. but
he has not been given the thoro
coaching dlshed out at Harvard. and
does not do his stunts with the
same pep. Jacques is a far better
line plunger. In fact. the latter Is
the only one OF the backfield who
compares with Horween in this re
spect.
The Yale line seems destined "a
do the greater part OF the work for
the Bull Dog today Encouraged by
the mountainous presence Of Capt
Black and his pugnacious aRgres
sfveness, It looks TO be one OF the
predestined things that Yale vii
stop the crashing Harvard attack
at least for a time.
