Harvard '95 vs. Yale '95.

Tomorrow afternoon on the Yale field, New Haven, the Harvard and Yale freshman elevens will play their annual game. For the past five years the Harvard freshman elevens have been victorious; but the chances this year are not so bright as usual.

When the call for candidates was first made at the beginning of the year it was remarkable how light the men were as a lot. There was hardly a candidate of them all who was as heavy as the centre and guards ought to be. In spite of repeated calls upon the class, no suitable heavy men turned up and the aaptain and coaches had to go to work with the material at their command. It is incredible that there should be no heavy men in Ninety-five; and if Yale should prove stronger on Saturday, the freshman class will have to realize that its own lack of proper spirit and enthusiasm is to account for the result.

The men who will represent their class are. though rather light, a very plucky set of men; and they ought to make an excellent showing against Yale. Their record of games won during the past season does not appear to be brilliant, but they have shown steady improvement, and are now doing creditable work with some team play. The great trouble is the lack of snap and the slowness which the rush-line show, and the fumbling of the backs.

The coach throughout the season has been J. H. Morse, L. S., and he has worked very carefully with the men. During the past few days some of the 'varsity players also have been coaching.

The eleven will probably be made up from the following men: Rushers, Wadsworth, Davis, Grant, Eddy, Potter, Murchie, Whitren, Emmons; Wrenn, quarter-back; McNear, Jackson, half-backs; Whitman, full-back.

The Yale men feel fairly confident of victory. They have nine freshmen at the 'varsity training table and they have all played at one time or another upon the team this fall. Among them are Stillman, Dyer, Richards. Hinkey, Coxe, Beard, Colt, and possibly Norton. The Yale freshman team, without most of the above men, have played a large number of games this season and have shown great improvement. They do good individual work and have been coached in team play carefully.

Following is a summary of Harvard-Yale freshman games. The first game was played in 1876 by the class of '80. In some years two games were played, and in three seasons, '78, '84 and '85 the games were omitted. Under each college are given the points won in the several games:

Year. Place. Harvard. Yale.

1876 Boston 18 0

1877 New Haven 6 0

1877 Boston 4 0

1879 New Haven 0 8

1879 Cambridge, 0 18

1880 Cambridge, 0 22

1881 New Haven, 0 16

1882 Cambridge, 6 6

1883 New Haven, 5 5

1886 Cambridge 22 4

1887 New Haven 6 2
