It might be just because the Elis know less about the finer points of rugby than any other team on the East Coast, but for the last two years Harvard has ended a winning season with a loss to Yale. Tomorrow at 3 p.m. the Crimson will visit Loomis School, in Hartford, Conn., and try to avoid becoming the permanent property of the men from New Haven.
The Yale side is always inexperienced and big, while the Crimson makes use of the graduate schools to field a team that has more idea of what it is supposed to do. This year is no exception. Both sides have beaten Princeton, and while the Crimson was being trounced by California, Yale was being thrashed by Dartmouth. This Saturday it should be anybody's game.
The Crimson will not quite be at full strength for the match, as scrum half Charles Levine sits out the game in a wheelchair and with a displaced cartilage, and prop forward Peter Curry nurses a pulled muscle.
Football player Ash Hallett has been practicing this week for Levine's position, and veteran Brady Williamson will fill in for Curry. Jim Lopez, who played for Yale last year, and Jim Damis will return to action for the Crimson.
