'51, J.V. Skaters Face Nearby High Schools On Arena Ice Today

Freshman and jayvee skaters should have an easy time this afternoon when they open the second half of their campaigns at the arena against younger teams from Medford and Lexington Highs respectively.

Both matches will serve as tune-ups for the Crimson squad's toughest games, which begin tomorrow when the once-beaten Yardlings face a fast Boston University six.

Freshman hopes sank last week when first-string goalie Phil Clark landed in Stillman Infirmary with mononucleosis and high-scorer Jack Carmen moved up to the Varsity.

The jayvees learned that center Fred Richardson will definitely be out for the rest of the season with disrupted vertebrae in the neck and head as the result of a collision with two BU defensemen early last month.
