CRIMSON FIVE BEATEN BY PROVIDENCE, 25-18

Outscored in the second half by a fast passing Providence quintet after holding its own during the first period, the Harvard five lost another game last night, 25 to 18. Shapiro was high point scorer of the game with eight points, and Boys led Harvard's scoring with five markers.

Aided by Henderson's splendid guarding and Providence's inability to hit the basket, Harvard was only one point behind at the half which ended seven to six. After Shapiro and Kutniewski had gained a substantial lead for Providence in the second half, the Crimson attempted a rally, but it was soon halted by the gun.
