DANGEROUS HOLY CROSS ELEVEN TO INVADE STADIUM

Harvard Leader and W. Ticknor Being Saved for Eli--Huguley and Alcock Will Answer Whistle

A dangerous Holy Cross eleven will invade the Stadium this afternoon at 2 o'clock to oppose the Crimson in its last home game of the current season. Simultaneously a crippled Yale team will tackle the roaring Princeton Tiger in its Jungletown den, and these two contests will occupy a large part of the attention of the football world; for they will shed the final ray of light on next week's classic in the Yale Bowl.

Purple is Rated Highly

The Purple outfit which arrives in Boston this morning is rated as one of the strongest to represent the Worcester College in many years. Its record is not particularly impressive to date in point of scores, but when one stops to consider that the Crusaders' line has outplayed all of its opponents, and that numerous injuries have kept many of the best players on the side lines for varying periods, he realizes that the Crimson is confronted with a task of no mean proportions. And this is more particularly true in as much as the Harvard weakness overhead is the fort of the invaders. Always a clever group of players, this year's Holy Cross contingent is no exception, and an opportunity for the much needed practice in blocking passes will most certainly be provided for Coach Horween's charges.

French Will be Inactive

Captain A. E. French '29 will undoubtedly view this afternoon's proceedings from the side lines. He has had a mild muscle lameness all week and though he is fit now, it is felt that he is too valuable to take chances with, with the Yale game only one week off. His place will be filled by A. W. Huguley '31, whose blocking and defensive work were a great factor in the Dartmouth game three weeks ago.

The only other regular who will not face the Crusaders is W. D. Ticknor '30. Ticknor, like French, has completely recovered from a minor injury, but he has had no work this week, and it is felt that he can stand the additional rest without detriment. A shake-up in the forward wall is necessitated by Ticknor's absence, with J. N. Trainer '31, moving over to right guard to fill his position, J. E. Barrett '30 taking left guard, who in turn will be replaced by T. H. Alcock '29.
