Ellis PICKED TO
WIN SATURDAY
Harvard Should Prove a Worthy
Foe in Stadium Battle

Yale having defeated Princeton,
and the Tigers having beaten llarF-
ard, the inevitable inference is that
Ellis will triumph over the Crimson
when they mingle at Cambridge on
Saturday. But let it be understood
that while Yale has many reasons Tor
feeling that this is TO be its big year
its first big year since l9l6-infrr-
cnces do not intercept forward pass
cs, build up interference for long
runs or down a lighting eleven which
is giving everything it has without re-
serve.
When we picture Harvard playing
Yale we like to ina CINE the Crimson
as the team which fought Penn state
TO p to 81 tie rather than the lar-
ward outfit which fell before Center
and Princeton. In that close battle
with Penn state the Harvard eleven
demonstrated that it had remarkable
resourccfulness and aggressiVeness. 1t
had no license to hold the Nittany
Lions to a tie.
Penn State had the stronger de,
fence and far and away the greater
attack Yet Harvards fighting 1ual-
ities-its determination not to stop
irving until the final whistle blew
turned defeat into a glorious dead
lock.
Against Center, the Harvard team
was beaten because if was careless,
sluggish, overcOnfident, stale mentally.
Center WAS not a greater eleven.
AGAINST Princeton the Crimson host

not in nhvsicaI condition for a hard

"Dear me. are YOU running races,

often she would take children out
for walks, and it would have been
hard for any n to decide whether
the children or Katharine Byrd had
the better time.
They always loved to go anywhere
with her. What fun she was! How
they loved to talk to her.
Boys and girls-all loved her! She
was always such fun, SO ready to en-

walk or a storytelling time.
And to take hold of Katharine
Byrd's hand and walk with her was
just the beginning of something mighty

public demonstration of his new tube
In the presence of Prof. George Pc

she said when the man opened the
door for her again after they had

where there seemed to be many tour

"You know the way, Miss?" Haw-

Helen was sure that she did, and
with short good night she found

AS she was leaving the garage a

to enter. Helen stopped short and
looked the driver squarely in the eyes,
"George!" she cried. George Tay-

hands.

alone. Will you come?'
Helen demurred for q moment, and
then, after returning to the garage to
leave q message with Hawkins, who
did not seem to listen to her, since he
was absorbed in the explanation of the
use of carbon remover, she decided
to 60.
George Taylor had made this trip
more than once with his people, and
he was surprisingly familiar with the
