SEXTET READY FOR CONTEST WITH TIGER

Crimson Will Face Stronger Team--Won 4 to 2 in First Game of Series--Speed Is Harvard's Strength

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Four regulars on the Harvard team will be playing their last game of hockey for the Crimson, if the Cambridge skaters are successful in subduing the Princeton sextet in the Hobey Baker Memorial Rink at 8.15 o'clock tonight. The entire forward line of Beals, Austin, and Hodder together with Chase at defense, graduates in June. Should Princeton win, the rubber game will probably be played in Boston some time next week.

The Harvard Squad left for Princeton yesterday morning, and had a short practice in the Princeton rink in the afternoon. In spite of 90 minutes of bruising hockey Wednesday night, the team is reported to be in good condition, and intent on ending the season tonight with a victory.

Harvard Won First Game

In the first H.P contest, the Crimson did not have much difficulty in winning 4 to 2, in a game featured by hard hockey by both teams. Coach Ramsay, who acquired distinction as a member of the championship Canadian Olympic team last year, has made two changes in the Tiger lineup for the second game with the Crimson athletes. Wilkinson, originally a defense man, has been shifted to the forward line replacing Scull at right wing, while Pepper has earned the assignment in the cage for tonight's game. In the first Harvard Princeton game, Pepper took Colebrook's place in the net for the final period, and succeeded in turning aside every puck which came from the stick of a Harvard skater. Like Jenkins and Cumings, Pepper prepared at St. Mark's School.

Tigers Have Improved

Although shut out for the second time against Yale last Saturday, the Princeton sextet played the Elis even during most of the game. Two of the Blue scores came as the result of long shots from the sticks of Scott and Sargent, which each of these players followed up to cage goals on the rebounds. Jenkins was impregnable in the Yale goal, and repelled numerous hard shots to keep his team's slate clean throughout the evening.

According to the Princetonian, the Tiger sextet has been improving with every game, and is by no means the underdog for tonight's game which hockey followers seek to make it. For sheer aggressiveness, the Princeton play has not been surpassed by a college team in the Arena this winter, and if the Nassan skaters can match the speed of their Crimson rivals tonight, the verdict may easily swing either way.
