Cambridge University will send a rugby team to the United States this April to meet Harvard, Yale, and Princeton in New York, under the sponsorship of the Sportsmanship Brotherhood.

The team will land in New York about Sunday, April 1. Marshall Field is giving a dinner at the Racquet Club on Thursday, April 5 at which William J. Bingham '16, director of Athletics, will be one of the speakers of the evening. After the dinner the whole Cambridge squad will be the guest of Mr. Field at the Cafe de Paris.

A game with Harvard has been arranged tentatively on Saturday, April 7. That night there will be a dinner at the Harvard Club of New York at which Will Rogers may be a speaker. A game with Yale will be played on Tuesday, April 10 at New Haven, and on Thursday, April 12 Cambridge will meet Princeton.

An all-star team picked from all the rugby players in the East will meet Cambridge on Saturday, April 14 in New York. This will climax the series, and the English team will sail for home shortly afterwards.

The Cambridge players will live in the dormitories of Columbia University during their stay. A trip has been arranged to West Point, and the team will visit all the other points of interest in the vicinity of New York.
