Harvard thus has the ad vantage over Yale, where even the ath letes have to study to get along. From Vincent Goulash It is learned that football elevens In their fight for the phantom cup will not only play this week, but they will make use of Burwell's and O'Connoll s lots -and the golf grounds. It is Interesting to learn that three fields will be used where one has always been amply sufficient to accommodate the few members who showed up. .What they will be used for Is not stated, but probably for baeket picnic. The president admits that a meeting could be held in O'Con nell's house just as well as at the field. It Is announced that some of the most evenly matched teams in the league meet this week.
