HARVARD VS. MAINE TODAY

The University eleven will play its third game of the season with the University of Maine this afternoon in the Stadium at 3 o'clock. On the University team Montgomery will go in at left tackle in place of Brill, and Carr, who has not yet played in a game this year, will replace Hanley at fullback. Hall will probably do the punting.

As this is the first game of the season for the Maine team there has been no way to judge of their relative strength. Five of the men who played on the Maine team last year, when Harvard won by the score of 23 to 0, are in the line-up today. The Maine team is somewhat lighter this year and is further handicapped by the loss of Captain Bennett, tackle, and Bearce, halfback, who are out of the game on account of injuries.

B. K. Stephenson '06 has been appointed cheer leader; no ladies will be admitted to the cheering section. The length of the halves has not been decided, but if the weather continues cold they will be longer than in the game with Bowdoin on Wednesday.

The line-up of the two teams follows: HARVARD.  MAINE. O'Brien, l.e.  r.e., Talbot Montgomery, l.t.  r.t., Stone Parker, l.g.  r.g., Smith White, c.  c., Moore Kersburg, r.g.  l.g., Bearce Squires, r.t.  l.t., Reed Hall, r.e.  l.e., Burleigh Newhall, q.  q., Mines Foster, l.h.  r.h., Swift Wendell, r.h.  l.h., Simons Carr, f.b.  f.b., Weymouth

The practice yesterday afternoon was fast and aggressive owing partly to the excellent football weather and also to the fact that so many of the team were given a rest Thursday. The preliminary work was largely devoted to lining up for punts, in order to give the linemen practice in breaking through and following the ends down the field. Burr, Leonard and Hall did most of the punting, Burr getting off some 65-yard kicks. In the scrimmage the first eleven scored once after eight minutes of play. The backs on the first eleven started fast, hit the line hard, and used good judgment in choosing holes. Carr played very well and at present is the most promising candidate for fullback. Brill was on the second eleven and played against Squires, who seemed to have a slight advantage.

Newhall received the kick-off on the 20-yard line and ran back 14 yards straight through the line. Hall dropped back to punt, but Corbett broke through and blocked the kick. The first team then held for downs on the 15-yard line. After short gains by the first eleven Hall punted to Snyder on the 30-yard line. The second team was again held for downs and by straight rushes the first eleven carried the ball down the field, Foster going over for the touchdown. Hall punted out to Newhall and White kicked the goal. This closed the play.

The line-up:FIRST ELEVEN.  SECOND ELEVEN.Burnham, l.e.  r.e., McDonaldMontgomery, l.t.  r.t., Cavenee, IrvingParker, l.g.  r.g., Burr, KersburgWhite, c.  c., FraserMcFadon, r.g.  l.g., BrownSquires, r.t.  l.t., BrillHall, r.e.  l.e., GrantNewhall, q.  q., TimminsFoster, l.h.  r.h., SnyderWendell, r.h.  l.h., HardingCarr, f.b.  f.b., Corbet
