CHANGED LINE-UP FACE INDIANS TODAY

Carlisle Will Oppose University Eleven for First Time Since Victory in 1911.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The University football team will play the Carlisle Indians in the Stadium this afternoon at 3 o'clock. This will be the first meeting of the two teams since 1911, when Carlisle defeated the University 18 to 15. The total record of games shows 11 victories for Harvard, as opposed to 2 victories for Carlisle. The last appearance of the Indians in Boston was on occasion of their game last November with an All-Star team largely composed of Harvard men, when the Indians were defeated in Fenway Park by the score of 13 to 6.

The present Carlisle record shows one victory, one tie, and one defeat, and as little is yet known of their opponents strength, no definite basis for an estimate of their own power can accurately be made. However, under a new and untried coaching system, and with an almost entirely "green" team, it can confidently be prophesied that today's game will not be a repetition of the 1911 result.

Against the Indians, Coach Haughton sends in a team which is the result of the last Tuesday's shift, a team which presents an old combination in the backfield, but which possesses a new field general and new line-men. Willcox does not possess Watson's experience, but he is a faster and more tricky runner with the ball. Today's game will shown whether or not he is the better man at directing the crimson attack. With Coolidge and Soucy at ends, that department of the line does not at this time seem to have been changed much for the better or for the worse. From tackle to tackle, weight, at least, has been lost in the substitution of R. C. Curtis and Caner for Parson and Bigelow, but this is offset by the power of the trio at centre, for Wiggin is flanked by two very strong and heavy men in Cowen and Dadmun.

The officials for today's game will be N. Tufts, of Brown, referee; J. A. Evans, of Williams, umpire; W. N. Morice, of the University of Pennsylvania, linesman; and W. R. Okeson, of Lehigh, extra official. Tickets at 50 cents and $1 can procured at the H. A. A. and at Leavitt & Peirce's and may also be had at the gate.

Light Work-out Yesterday

The practice held yesterday afternoon was very light, both in preparation for today's game and as a let-up from the hard work of the two days previous. Captain Mahan, Honween, Robinson, and Rollins sent off some long punts in the preliminary work, while the rest of the squad warmed up passing the ball. A short and very light scrimmage with the second team was the only drill of a hard nature, and this was followed by a signal practice for Teams A, B, and C which completed the afternoon's session.

It has been learned after a more careful examination that Enwright's injury is not as serious as was first thought. Instead of a wrenched knee, the injury has been found to be a slightly sprained ankle. Enwright was down at the field on crutches yesterday, and is expected to resume practice with the squad within a week's time
