Houses Renew Straus Cup Race as Spring Sports Start

After a long lay off action will be resumed in House athletics tomorrow along three fronts as eight entries turn down the home stretch in the Straus Trophy race. Both baseball leagues, hardball and softball, and tennis pull up the curtain on their spring schedules.

Golf is slated to get under way next Monday, while the rowing and track championships will not be decided until after the middle of May. May 27 is the big day on the spring calendar, because on that day the Harvard hardball winners journey to New Haven to tackle Yale's representative, and the Elis send their tennis and crew standard bearers to Cambridge.

Despite the fact that the Kirkland Deacons are walking away from the rest of the field with 851 1/2 points to their credit already for the trophy and leaving only Lowell with 785 1/2 in any sort of a contending position, a large participation is expected for spring activities.
