...Harvard Freshmen, on the other hand, are unusually light this year, and unlike many Freshman teams, are not blessed by any former school-boy stars. However, the team has one excellent asset. The men have shown throughout the season an eagerness to learn and a zeal for accomplishment which so far has brought them out on top in each of the preliminary games.
