Dick Harlow will send out exactly 181 pounds less of total football manhood, but he is sending out a team which, like all of the Crimson teams, will give their best when the odds are heaviest against them.

Under similar circumstances in the past, pep rallies have been held with considerable success.

Apparently fearing that his and Secretary Hull's recent, repeated condemnations of autarchies and aggressors too definitely aligned the U.
