Harvard will play Brown on Soldiers Field this afternoon at 3 o'clock in what promises to be one of the hardest games of the season. The Brown team is the strongest that has represented that university in a number of years, and has already shown its ability by holding Yale down to 10 points, and by defeating Pennsylvania a week ago by the score of 15 to 6.
