...clock this afternoon. As Boal and Reid will be the only men missed from the line-up, Harvard will be able to oppose a good team to the strong Brown eleven. The latter has a good record for this season, and in past seasons has always played games which proved of great value to Harvard elevens. It will require strong team play to break up Harvard's defense, and the offensive work should be effective as a result of the great attention paid to it during the past week. With Sawin and Burnett in the game, the possession...

...Senior and Junior elevens are about equal in strength. Both have a fairly effective interference and as a rule play aggressively. Their chief fault seems to be carelessness, which shows itself frequently in fumbling and offside play. The Freshmen have improved very rapidly of late, and ought to give a good account of themselves. The Sophomore team is composed wholly of new material, and is consequently weak...
