...optimistic over the result of the Cornell-Harvard game Saturday," he said in addressing the players, "we are far from the level of last season's condition, and the team is not what it should be physically at this time of the year. The late start this year, fully two weeks behind Harvard's get-off, did not do us any good, and the squad has been slow in rounding into shape for the crucial game of the year.

Captain Edward B. Richardson, commanding the Battery, said yesterday that the men would probably be mustered out in a week or ten days. Meanwhile there will be no furloughs during the day for the members of the Battery. During the night, only as many men will be kept at the armory as are necessary for guard duty. The men will be kept busy cleaning the large amount of battery equipment which has been brought from the Border.
