HARVARD POLOISTS FACE YALE TEAM TOMORROW

Crimson Four at Peak of Rally Aims To Avenge Former Defeat -- Clash Marks Final Stage of Tournament

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Following its two surprise victories over Princeton and Army, the Harvard polo team faces Yale tomorrow afternoon in the finals of the outdoor intercollegiate tournament.

The University riders, generally rated as the poorest team in the tournament on the basis of their previous record, have thus far staged an extraordinary comeback, featuring Nicholas, Dillingham, and Rumsey as the backbone of the team. Dillingham has just been getting back into form after a long illness during the winter.

Yale will probably have to concede a considerable handicap to the Crimson four in tomorrow's game. In the previous match the Blue team won 13-3, although a win by a larger margin had been forecast. Tomorrow's clash at Rye should find Harvard still on the upgrade of their comeback, but their chances of defeating the best Eli aggregation in history are very slim.

Thursday's victory over Army was featured by a heavy downpour which practically ruined the last chukker of play. Captain Nicholas put across the winning tally.
