The farthest-travelling Crimson rugby team in history was announced last night by Club President Art Ticknor, following a practice game in which M.I.T. was routed by five tries (rugby's equivalent of touchdowns). The ruggers leave for Berkeley, Calif., on Wednesday, for two matches with the Bears.
The 17 man touring team, though notably light in proteges of Lloyd Jordan, is the most experienced the Crimson has fielded in several years. The only four inexperienced members of the squad are '56 freshman football captain Dave Bodiker and varsity players Ron Eikenberry, Tony Gianelly and Jim Joslin.
Six of the side were on the Club's touring side in Bermuda last year. They are South Africans Lionel Bryer (Capt.), Martin Lindsay, and John Chalsty, Englishman Alastair Rellie, and Americans Jim Damis and Terry Turner.
Peter Curry, another Englishman, has represented the Crimson before, as have Allan Hobson, Charlie Eaton and Pete Palmer.
