THE GAME WITH CARLISLE

Contest Should be Close and Interesting--Indian Team Strong.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Carlisle Indian School eleven will play Harvard this afternoon at 3 o'clock on Soldiers Field. In past seasons, the games with Carlisle have proved excellent contests, and though the scores have always been in Harvard's favor and several times been rather high, Carlisle's fast offense and many trick plays have always sustained interest to the end. This year the Indian team is unusually strong, and fresh from a victory over Cornell, may be counted upon to play an aggressive and stubborn game.

Irregular development and inconsistent and startling reversal of form throughout the season are causes which at this time prevent a true estimate of the Harvard team's worth. Secret practice, however, which has been going on during the past week, has corrected some of the earlier faults, and by perfecting various formations, has immeasurably increased the attacking power of the eleven. High playing by both linemen and backs are some of the habits which the team has so far been unable to overcome, and these will undoubtedly account for any lack of effectiveness in either stopping the ball or advancing it.

Owing to the fact that Carlisle depends in offensive play almost entirely upon end runs, the game this afternoon should afford a good test of Harvard's strength in that part of the team. A peculiar style is used in the formation of these plays and with quick starting and rapid running, the Carlisle team will be very formidable and apt to score.

The line-ups will be:

HARVARD.  CARLISLE.Clark, l.e.  r.e., BradleyShea or Wright, l.t.  r.t., ExendineMarshall, l.g.  r.g., LuboKing, c.  c., WheelockBarnard, r.g.  l.g., PhillipsKnowlton, r.t.  l.t., WhiteMatthews, r.e.  l.e., BeaverMarshall, q.b.  q.b., JohnsonKernan, l.h.b.  r.h.b., SheldonPutnam, r.h.b.  l.h.b., ParkerGraydon, f.b.  f.b., William
