FRESHMEN CLASH WITH FAVORED ELI IN FINALE TODAY

Injured Captain Returns to Bolster Crimson for Last Stand--Parker is Chief Yale Threat

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

While 50,000 or more people crowd the Stadium for the Harvard-Holy Cross tilt Harvard's Freshman eleven will climax season by battling the Yale first year team on the Second University field today. The opening kickoff of the contest is scheduled for 2 o'clock.

Both teams have complied an unenviable record thus far this year, but the Elis rank a shade better on comparative scores. The convincing victory of the Blue Freshmen over their Nassau last Saturday makes them a decided favorite. Harvard has nary a victory to its credit, its closest semblance to a conquest being at 7 to 7 tie with Exeter, who by a turn of fate nosed out Yale 7 to 6.

Squad Physically Perfect

Coach French, however, has been spending an intensive-week brushing up on individual faults and smoothing out the team play. The squad is in perfect physical condition and with the return of Captain Wells, may furnish surprising opposition to the Blue.

Reports from New Haven have it that Parker. Eli halfback is the man the Crimson must stop. Captain Wilbur at left tackle is a power in the Blue line I. B. Hardy '33, fullback for the Freshmen, should furnish plenty of trouble for the Yale forward wall.
