PREPARE TO INVADE WEST.
Harvard Football Players Begin to Pol.
iSh Up for Match.

Cambridge Mass, Dee, 4.The Har
ward university football team, which
will invade the west to play a Pacific
coast eleven at Pasadena on New Years
day, viii be virtually the same as that
which went through the recent season
without defeat. In connection with the
announcement of Haryards acceptance
Of the invitation TO play at the carni-
val Of roses celebration. II was said
to-day that % men would be taken on
the trip.
Canvass OF the Crimson players who
won their letters against Princeton
and Yale and leading substitutes,
showed that almost all were available.
One or two may be lost because OF
academic difficulties, and two Others
said they might wish to pass Christmas
with their families, having been in the
service for the past two Christmas sea-
sons
The team will include Captain Muir
ray, the Crimson quarterback, and two
substitutes for that position Eddie Cas-
ey, the crack halfbac6, whose shifty
open field running, forward pass recep-
ton and defensive play gave him high
place among eastern players. and the
Horween brothers, one of whom, Ralph,
kicks far and true for field goals. One
substitute will be carried for each po.
sition except quarterback, for which
there will be two men. Head Coach
Robert T Fisher will have several as
sistants, including Eddie Mahan, Grim
son captain in 1918, who is familiar
with western styles Of play through a
season as coach at the University of
Southern California
The start for the west will be made
Dec. 20. when q two weeks recess for
the holidays begins at Harvard. Until
that time the Crimson team will be
kept busy with a re.conditioning pro-
cess,
The players broke training after the
Yale game two weeks ago, which Elar-
ward won 10 to 3, but Coach Fisher
said he had no doubt it would be pos
sible to bring ne players back to top
form, and with nearly a week for ac-
acclimmation and practice in California
that the team would be ready to play
It's best game on New Years day Ac-
tive practice will begin Monday, Cap
tain Murray announced Play will be
held in the stadium when possible and
probably in an armoTy in Boston when
the weather makes outdoor work i'm
possible.

A TUBERCULOSIS SEAL.
That Is What the Red Cross Christ
mas Seal Really Is.

DR.. Philip P. Jacobs Of the National
Tuberculosis association states that in
many parts Of the country there has
been considerable confusion between
the Red Cross roll call and the sale
Of the Red Cross Christmas seals. Many
people have the impression that the
Red Cross has hardly finished one finan-
cial campaign when they are starting
second one through the Red Cross
seals
The first Red Cross seals were print
ed by the American Red Cross in a very
limited quantity. In 1908 the Nation
al tuberculosis association asked the
Red Cross for the use Of the seals to
raise funds to fight tuberculosis. This
was granted. Each year the tuberculo-
sis association has extended the sale OF
the seals until this year it is hoped
that 1t wilF bring in six and e-half
million dollars TO fight tuberculosis.
Before the Red Cross seal made its
first appearance there were very few
hospitals and sanatoria, no preventoria
and no open air schools. Only few
OF the larger cities had any organiza-
ton that was fighting the disease The
Red Cross seal has been largely the
means Of changing all of this, for
through its sale volunteer organlza-
tions were financed and influence
brought 10 bear on officials OF the
boards Of health and legislatures. There
are now constantly increasing num-
Der of tuberculosis hospitals, sanatoria,
preventoria and clinics.
Most everyone in the country has
had preached to them the Importance
of cleanliness and fresh air. This work
has not been without any results for
the death rate from tuberculosis has
grown less consistently. 1t is esti-
mated that at present there are 10000
less deaths annually from this disease
in the United States than there were
20 years ago.

Paris. Dee. "A report generally
current in Paris that Henry White OF
the American peace delegation would
remain here, after .he departure Of the
other members OF the delegation, to
