After their two days' recuperation from the gruelling contest with the powerful Princeton team, the University regulars will resume practice in their final drive for the season's objective encounter with the Eli. The much heralded Brown eleven will furnish the last preliminary test of the Horween machine Saturday in a game which promises to be as hard as any on the Crimson schedule...
...uncertainty is, this year at least not entirely Orange and Black. For a young and untried coach has brought much of conjecture and enigma with him from the west to Cambridge. Under Horween the Crimson eleven has journeyed a more checkered road than for many seasons past.

Guarnaccia is the present favorite for the starting berth, which would leave French as a dangerous threat in a relief role...
With these exceptions Horween will start the same team that faced Tufts last week. Meadows will be Strong's companion at end. Captain Coady and Pratt will hold down the tackle berths, Sinonds and Kilgour will be at guards, and Gamache at the pivot position...
