Harvard should paint the Yale Bowl red tomorrow for the first time since the days of Owen.

The superior might of the Harvard line, along with the Crimson's possession of a stronger kicking game and a potentially powerful running attack, should combine with Yale weaknesses to give us our first triumph over the Blue since 1922.

Harvard, to be sure, is none too powerful. The Crimson has a strong running and lateral passing attack, but lacks the forward passing threat that is essential to make the running offense a distinct success. It is fairly easy to come up and stop running plays when you know your opponents can't complete forwards.

The Crimson also has displayed a tendency to fumble at critical points and to get mixed up occasionally in running off plays. Also her attack has not yet become well synchronized.

Yale, however, appears to be far worse off than we are. She has one of the country's greatest offensive backs in Garvey and one of the best defensive backs in the country in Decker; yet both are in crippled condition. Her attack lacks deception, and she does not seem to be "right", either physically or mentally.

Also it is a 10 to 7 shot that the Harvard line will outplay the Blue frontier. Line coaches Dunne and Hubbard have done a splendid job this fall. Also, although team A is very, very shaky in its attempts at forward passing, Gilligan of team B is in adept passer and Batchelder and Burns of team B are adept receivers.

It should be a close game with the breaks counting for a great deal, and there is a good possibility of a scoreless tie, but the superior condition of the Crimson team, the superior might of the Crimson line, and the greater brilliance of the Crimson backs should carry us on to victory.
