SIX HARVARD PLAYERS ENTER FOOTBALL GAME

Six Harvard football players have signified, their intention of accepting an invitation to become members of a squad of Harvard, Yale and Princeton gridiron stars which is slated to play a game against an eleven recruited from various Pacific Coast universities on August 10 in Los Angeles. The eastern team will meet the western eleven in the Olympic stadium in an exhibition game, and will be coached by H. W. Clark '23, secretary of the H. A. A., T. A. Jones of Yale, and Dr. Marvin Stevens of Yale.

Should any of the Harvard seniors who agreed to travel West to play in this game find themselves unable to go, the eastern team would enlist Harvard football players of last fall who will be competing for a place on the Olympic track team in the I. C. A. A. A. A. tournament, according to Clark. The players who have agreed to go are E. A. Mays, Jr. '32, J. F. Schereschewsky '32, and B. D. White '32 as candidates for backfield positions; William Ginman '32 and H. R. Myerson '32 as guards; and F. H. Kales '32 as a possible tackle. Other members of the 1931 Crimson team who will probably be in Los Angeles at the time, and who would be willing to play should they find themselves omitted from the Olympic track squad are E. E. Record '32, M. J. Finlayson '32, and G. W. Kuehn '32.

Since the turn of the century it has been the custom for each country, which is host to the worlds athletes during their efforts to gain Olympic laurels, to stage an exhibition match of its favorite game. As college football was felt to represent a popular and at the same time amateur sport, various students from East and West were invited to participate. The academic regulations at Harvard forbid students to play in such contests while they are candidates for degrees, but the eligibility of graduates for such a team is unquestioned. W. B. Wood '32 is one of the seniors who has declined the invitation, as he intends to study during the summer. Former captain Albie Booth of Yale will practice with the squad.

The Crimson stars will entrain for California on July 9 and will play in the Olympic Stadium on the evening of August 10. Owing to the heat the practice sessions, like the final clash, will be staged, out of doors under flood lights. Their expenses will be paid by the Olympic Committee, and uniforms will be provided for them. These funds, collected by the Committee, consist largely of the contributions of the city of Los Angeles, Clark stated yesterday
