Plans for Basketball This Year

Candidates for the University basketball team will be called out the last of November. The prospects for a successful team are very good, four of the men who played against Yale last year being again eligible: I. S. Broun '08, who is captain of this year's team, has played on the University team two years. The other men who remain from last year's team are E. Allen '09, P. Brooks '09, and E. S. Currie '09. Of last year's Freshman team, Wallace and Sheehan are the most promising material.

Harvard is not in the intercollegiate league this year, on account of the Faculty ruling on the number of outside games permitted. The University team, however, will probably play two games with Yale, besides games with Princeton, Columbia, Williams, Cornell, Andover and Wesleyan, sixteen games being scheduled in all. The team will begin its regular schedule a few days after the Christmas holidays.

The second team, as usual, will have a schedule of its own including a New York trip, and games with the minor New England college teams.

Candidates for the Freshman team will be called out at the same time as candidates for the University team. The Freshman manager will be appointed, and the Freshman coach announced, very shortly. Besides games with Andover and other preparatory schools, the 1911 schedule provides for games with the Yale freshmen, and the freshmen of Columbia, Brown and Dartmouth.

Scrub games for men who do not make the University squad will be held after the mid-year period, and prizes will be given to the members of the winning team.

The class games will be played in December, and the members of the winning team will be given cups and will be allowed to wear their class basketball numerals.
