SEXTET TO MEET TECH TONIGHT IN SEASONS OPENER

Five lettermen will be in the starting lineup of the University hockey team which opens the local season with the M.I.T. sextet at the new Boston Garden at 3.15 o'clock this evening. As was the case last year, the coaches by mutual agreement will waive the ruling limiting the teams to six substitutes, with the result that three and possibly four complete teams will have an opportunity to participate in the game for the University this evening.

Although the M.I.T. group defeated Harvard in a close game three years ago, the University teams have since been successful, winning last year 9 to 0. The M.I.T. sextet this year has played but one game, which it lost to Boston University last Saturday, but other than that, little is known of the team's strength.

Expect to Use Several Sextets

Coach Stubs plans to start the game with the above lineup, but alternate the following group frequently during the first and second periods: C.B. Lakin, '30 r.w., J.B. Garrisson '31, c. John Cross, l.w., M.N. Stanley, r.d., and W.L. Shearer '29, l.d. Newhall and Jackson will probably both see action in the net. In the final period, the coach plans to use a third and fourth group, thus giving him an idea of the calibre of his entire squad in a game.

H. A. A. books will admit all students to the balcony, and for fifty cents extra, a guest will be admitted with the holders of the books. This arrangement worked out well last year at the Arena, and should prove even more attractive this year, for the balcony seats at the new Garden are so placed as to make every potion of the playing surface visible from them.
