The football schedule for the season of 1915, which has just been completed, subject to the approval of the Athletic Committee, differs in many instances from that of last year. All of the early games will be against colleges which did not oppose the University during the past season. Michigan has been dropped from the schedule. Accordingly Bates, Springfield Training School, Washington and Jefferson, Tufts, and Michigan will not be seen in the Stadium next fall. In their places games have been arranged will Colby, Massachusetts Agricultural College, Carlisle, University of Virginia, and Cornell.
Colby and the University of Virginia have never sent teams to Cambridge, and Massachusetts "Agricultural" College has not appeared on the University schedule for a number of years. Carlisle opposed the University four years ago, and Cornell in 1919. The University of Virginia eleven was defeated by Yale this year by a Score of 23 to 0, but the defeat came at a time when the Yale eleven was playing excellent football. In its other games the southern college gave good exhibitions of football. The University team defeated Cornell in 1913 in the first game in which the two colleges had met in three years by the score of 23 to 6. During this past season the Cornell team played exceptionally good football, the season culminating in a victory over the University of Pennsylvania in their annual battle. Inasmuch as but few men will be lost through graduation, Cornell should again develop a hard fighting and evenly balanced team, and one which is likely to give the University a close contest.
Colby, Massachusetts Agricultural College, and Carlisle all played good football during the past season, although their work was not up to the standard of the major elevens of the East
The complete schedule follows:
September 25--Colby.
October 2.--Massachusetts Agricultural College.
October 9.--Carlisle.
October 16.--University of Virginia.
October 23.--Cornell.
October 30.--Pennsylvania State.
November 6.--Princeton at Princeton.
November 13.--Brown.
November 20.--Yale.
