...backfield, the advantage undoubtedly rests with the visitors. Cap- tain Barrett is a vastly more experienced field general than any of Coach Haughton's quarterbacks, and in his punting, drop-kicking, and open-field running he has a reputation which puts him in a class with Mahan. Collins, Shiverick, and Mueller present a well-balanced trio of skillful runners and strong defence men, and even with Mahan in the line-up Harvard cannot hope with its crippled backfield to meet these men on even terms. The break of the game will very probably depend on how well the two elevens...
Only two more days remain for men to sign up and report for practice for the Haughton Cup scrub football series.

Only six men have signed up for the series in the blue-books at Leavitt & Peirce's so far, and not all of these have reported for practice.

Last year there were three teams which played a series of fifteen games...
...coaches made the best of the unfavorable conditions by giving the men a long talk in the Locker Building and a half-hour's signal drill in the Cage, but dissatisfied with the showing being made lately, Coach Haughton wound up the afternoon's work by staging a hard scrimmage on the field. The play was impeded by the thick mist and wet turf, but before it was stopped at 5 o'clock by utter darkness, every man was sent in to take part. No scoring was made, for the University team could not make consistent progress through the seconds...
...comparison to other years is probably the main reason for this, but it is certain that the training given cannot possibly be as complete as that which last year's eleven received, for the apparent slowness of the men to "catch on" is retarding Coach Haughton's plans considerably...
