Weakened Ruggers Lose to Barbarians

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

United States immigration officials combined with general examinations and the Montreal Barbarians on Saturday to defeat a non-representative Crimson rugby team, 11 to 0.

After the pressure of this week's generals had reduced the number of regular first team players able to make the 325-mile trip to eight, lack of the necessary re-entry permits lowered the number to five.

The ruggers managed to borrow two men from the Barbarians' second team, and played the game one man short.

The Barbarians scored their first try with the game 22 minutes old, making the half-time score 3 to 0. They added another converted try three minutes after the start of the second half, and earned their last three points from a third try 17 minutes later.

In matches against M.I.T., the only common opponent of the two teams, the full-strength Crimson won, 22 to 0, while the Barbarians edged through 6 to 5.
