...University eleven, with substitutes, left Cambridge yesterday afternoon for the game with West Point today. In addition to the twenty-three men who were mentioned in the CRIMSON yesterday, Daly went with the team and will probably play in the first half. Except for Boal, Reid and Parker, therefore, the whole squad is in condition to play. Although West Point does not seem to have as good a team as in previous years, it will be the first strong one Harvard has met this season, and the game will be some criterion of the ability of the eleven...
Under the vigorous coaching of Captain Reid, the whole squad has been well drilled in hard, fast play. The backing-up is, perhaps, the best feature of the work at present. In this, the effect of good coaching is especially apparent, great stress being laid upon the principle of having the fielders anticipate the play, and help each other out.

...yesterday's practice the University eleven played with less life than usual. This was owing mainly to the fact that a large number of players were allowed to take the day off. Hallowell, Swain, Boal and Reid were all absent from the practice. Although Gierasch did not play yesterday, he will be in condition for the West Point game. Reid will also be out in a few days. Boal, however, injured his leg in the Amherst game and will not be able to play for a week...
