HARVARD SKIERS ENTER INTERCOLLEGIATE MEET

Harvard's first skiing team will make its initial entry in the field of intercollegiate winter sports when it competes in the College Week contests at Lake Placid in the last week of December. The Crimson ski-runners will be entered only in the slalom and downhill races to be held on the afternoon of December 30, and the morning of December 31, respectively. Teams from Dartmouth, McGill, New Hampshire, and other New England and Canadian colleges are expected to provide hard competition for a new Crimson outfit, inexperienced in formal team competition and lacking intensive practice over difficult courses to test its skill.

Only four men are making the trip to Lake Placed, and though they stand pretty well at the top of the large University squad of 20 men, it is more than likely that when the season gets underway after the Midyear examinations there will be some shifting in the ranks. C. F. Angel '33, R. L. Riley '33, H. L. Washburn, Jr. '33, and H. S. Sise '34 will form the Harvard contingent and will enter both races together. Harvard has little chance for the Championship, because it is given to the high-point team in a contest which embraces such sports as ski-jumping and speed-skating, in which the Crimson will have no representatives.
