Twenty Harvard rugby players will leave by automobile for Syracuse, New York, this afternoon, where they will play a game with Syracuse University tomorrow.
This will be the University's third game of the season. Last Saturday Harvard was defeated by Princeton 6 to 3 and the week before lost to the Marines by a score of 7 to 6. Owing to the Divisional examinations, Seniors will not be able to make the trip this afternoon, and consequently the University team will be considerably weakened. Syracuse is reported to have a fairly strong XV. Two of their men are experienced rugby players and they are playing lettermen of other sports. The game on Saturday will be their first match of the season.
Harvard ruggers, who are expected to show the best form are T. N. Lawler 2L, who played on the Princeton team in 1929; R. K. Farris, an experienced man from British Columbia; and A. W. Sherman '34, who played a good defense game against Princeton last Saturday.
The men leaving today are as follows: J.M. Legrange 2G, fullback; C. A. Snelling '31, r.w.; V. A. White 2GB, r.w.; T. N. Lawler 2L, l.c.; G. G. Hartridge '32, l.w.; A. W. Sherman '34, s.o.h.; E. C. Pugh '33, h.b.; G. H. Conant '33, P. W. Dockery 1L, and H. C. Schwyzer '34 as forwards; W. VanN. Jones '32 and S. M. Wheeler '32 as second row forwards; and R. K. Farris 2GB, J. A. Potter '34, and T. P. Fry gr.L, as third row forwards. The reserves are H. G. Moorehead 1L, and M. B. Graves '32, forwards, while R. H. Bates '33, M. M. Slack '32 and A. G. Draper '32 are backs.
