Girls Cheer Harvard
Squad as 1t Leaves
For Princeton Came

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. Nov 3.---With a
cheering section improvised for the oc-
casion by seven young women, none OF
them over eighteen, the Harvard foot
ball squad Of sixty three members left
Boston this afternoon for Princeton,
The girls had como to pay tribute to
one Of the varsity half backs. One of
them was his fiancee, and after shower
ing the lucky lad with flowers and con-
fetSi they turned to the rest Of the
squad and as the train pulled out blew
horna, threw kisses and waved their
arms with many shouted GOOD luck,
boysl"
1t was the most unusual demonstra-
tion ever given a Harvard team on its
way to face foreign foe. The squad
gathered in the Varsity Club shortly
after luncheon, and. acting under
orders, wore overcoats. Most Of them
were heavy. Ben Lockwood introduced
the first fur coat of the fall in these
parts, and was Joined by Babe FELTON,
just as the men posed for a photo
graph In the doorway Of the club.
Only One Member Missing
Shortly after o'cock two motor
busses brought the team to the Back
Bay station, where the train was due
at o'clock. Only one member Of the
team was missing. Erwin Gherke, who
broke bone in his jaw in the Centre
game, was left behind, but will mako
the trip tomorrow. Frank Rouillard,
who broke his ankle in the same contest,
attired in golf dress, hobbled about on
his crutches. Karl Pfaffman, the drop
kicker, limped bit, while several Of the
other players wore patches on different
parts of their faces.
Less than fifty rooters cheered the
team on its leaving Cambridge, despite
an appeal from "The Crimson" to as
semble and give the men a rousing send
off. The undergraduates apparently are
we'll fed up on this sort of stuff, 600
of them attending the final practice
in the stadium yesterday and twice as
many being present at the mass meet
ing Monday.
Percy Haughton, former head coach,
was one Of the tourists to-day, but will
remain in New York until Saturday
, morning. He took with him several
reels Of motion pictures, which he will
show In the course Of an illustrated
talk tomorrow evening at the Harvard

tional information on Saturdays line
