Sailors Begin Season

The Harvard Yacht Club will enter two boats in an invitational regatta at Providence on Sunday. Seven other college teams will attempt to wrest the Sharpe Trophy from the Crimson, winners of the meet last year.

Hanson Robbins and John Deknatel will skipper the Harvard entries. Brown, which has produced consistently strong teams in the past few years, together with Coast Guard, Dartmouth, M.I.T., Rhode Island, Trinity, and Yale will provide the opposition.

The meet will be held on the Providence River and is the first of eight for the varsity this spring. Next on the schedule are the Greater Boston Dinghy Championships, which will take place at Tufts on Friday, April 19.

Highlight of the season is the competition for the Coast Guard Bowl, which is awarded to the winners of the New England Intercollegiate Championships. These will be held this year on May 12.
