Harvard's strength lies mainly in team work and an unusual defensive game. Captain Morgan's defensive ability together with his speed and clever stick-work on the offence make him the most valuable all-around player on the team, if anyone can be said to hold that position. T. C. Thacher '18, regular coverpoint, has been laid up lately with an injured foot and H. K. White '19 has filled his position ably.
