The Freshman football team will play the final game on its schedule when it meets the undefeated Yale Freshmen at 11 o'clock this morning on the Yale Freshman field in New Haven.
Comparative scores point to the Yale Freshmen as the better team. Beginning their seasons with easy victories over their preliminary rivals both teams defeated Andover and Exeter by very similar scores. Against Suffield Academy, however, Yale triumphed by a score of 26-0, while the Harvard Freshmen had hard work to win 25-18. The final test came in the games with the Princeton yearlings. Two weeks ago the Yale Freshmen defeated the Tiger Cubs by a score of 21-7. On the following week, while the Yale regulars were resting, the Harvard Freshmen went down before Princeton 16-6, chiefly as a result of injuries, penalties and fumbles.
Injuries Still Hampering Harvard
This afternoon's game will be greatly affected by injuries. Captain Daley, Zarakov and Miller are still handicapped by recent injuries but will be in the opening line-up. For Yale, Captain Kline and Sturbahn are slowly recovering from muscle bruises.
Yale is generally conceded to have the stronger backfield, but with Zarakov and Miller in condition to play this morning they will be a serious threat to the Yale goal line.
