GET BEHIND THE TEAM.

The final football mass meeting of the year will be held in the Union tomorrow. This will afford the undergraduates their last opportunity to practice the songs and cheers which will be used at New Haven Saturday. The team goes to New Haven this year with the prospect of lining up against the strongest eleven which has represented Yale for several years. Yale's showing against Princeton in the early periods last Saturday when her regulars were in the game has shown that the team is not one to be considered lightly. Against Yale's baffling system of multiple passing, the University will send an inexperienced line whose best quality as displayed thus far has been gameness. To such a line, unaccustomed to the excitement and nervous tension preceding a big game, the value of the knowledge that it has the confidence of the undergraduates behind it cannot be overestimated. The university eleven has been unfortunate in injuries this season. Veterans have been replaced by substitutes so that the personnel of the team at times has been scarcely recognizable. Because of this fact the team needs stimulus and encouragement far more perhaps than a veteran eleven.
