The Stadium, Soldiers Field, Nov. 19.--At 1.05 o'clock the Yale and Harvard squads ran on the field for their respective preliminary practice. Five minutes later the Yale band followed and took up position in front of the Yale section and played several of the Eli songs. The preliminary drill for both squads consisted of passing and drop-kicking. At 1.25 o'clock the Yale squad left the field for the locker building, followed shortly after by the Harvard players. At 1.30 the University band marched on the field in "H" formation, playing "Harvardiana", "Soldiers Field" and "The Gridiron King" as it went. After the band stopped playing, the Yale stands gave a regular cheer which was returned a minute later by the Harvard.

The cheering was immediately followed by the singing of "Harvardiana" by the Crimson cheering section, accompanied by the band. The Elis reciprocated with "Bull Dog". The field is in better condition than was expected to be the case. The wind has dried it off to a great extent and, although a bit heavy, the gridiron does not appear to be as muddy and slippery as last Saturday in the Brown game. At 1.45 Captain Aldrich led the first Yale eleven on to the field, the rest of the squad following behind. Cheers from the Harvard and Yale stands greeted the Eli squad.

Quarterback O'Hearn put the Yale eleven through a snappy signal practice the length of the gridiron, while the Yale students sang "Good Night Poor Harvard55. At 1.05 o'clock Captain Kane led the Harvard squad on to the field, the University cheering of the whole Crimson side of the stands gave the squad enthusiastic welcome. The first University eleven ran through a few signals, then retired to the benches. Referee Tiny Maxwell went out to the middle of the field and flipped the coin betwen Captains Kane and Aldrich. The Eli leader won the toss and chose to defend the goal at the closed end of the Stadium. A moment later both teams ran out onto the gridiron.
