Last Week of Athletic Encounters Before Mid-Years Finds Crimson Teams Engaging in 23 Contests; 12 in Cambridge

Tempting fare for sports-minded undergraduates is offered by the last full week of athletic encounters for Harvard teams before mid-years. There will be a total of 23 encounters, 12 of which will be in Cambridge or Boston.

Heading the card will be the attempt of the undefeated varsity hockey team to win its third International Intercollegiate League victory against a comparatively weak Princeton team. The game will be played as part of a double header in the Boston Garden, with the Olympics-N. Y. Rovers game forming the second half of the program.

The strong varsity basketball team has a busy week; together with the jayvees it will play Tech on the latter's courts Tuesday night, in what should be an easy victory for the Crimson; next weekend, it travels to oppose Syracuse on Friday and play a return game with once-beaten Cornell in an Eastern Intercollegiate League clash Saturday.

Next Saturday evening the varsity team, which coasted to an easy victory day before yesterday, faces the Providence Boy's Club in the Indoor Athletic Building. Harvard's last boxing team fights the Coast Guard at New London. The varsity squash team will play the Harvard Club "Reds" tomorrow in Boston.
