Crimson Will Meet Tigers in Soccer, Rugby, '59 Football Today in Mud

Soccer Team Rules As Clear Favorite

By Adam Clymer

Ken McIntosh and John Hadik will return to action against Princeton this morning as the soccer team battles to stay alive in the Ivy League race. The encounter, the final home game of the season, will begin at 10:30 on the Business School Field.

If the condition of the field, already partially submerged, does not hopelessly slop up play, the Crimson can expect higher scoring than it has usually shown this year. McIntosh always gets many shots at outside right, and in practice this week, Coach Bruce Munro has found what may be the solution to the team's scoring problem, moving his insides away from the front of the goal, thus forcing the goalie to defend against shots from more angles.

Ivy Title at Stake

The Crimson must win this morning if it is to retain a chance of overtaking Yale and Pennsylvania in the Ivy League. The team has already lost once in the League, and there is no likelihood, excluding the Crimson-Eli encounter, that either Yale or Penn will lose another game. CURRENT IVY LEAGUE STANDINGS Yale  3-0  Dartmouth  2-3 Penn  4-1  Cornell  0-2 Harvard  2-1  Brown  0-4 Princeton  2-2

Hadik will strengthen the defense by returning to right halfback and providing a possible substitute for fullbacks High Sargent and Don Beaver, neither of whom are in top shape. The other halfbacks will be Stacey Holmes at center, and Denny Little, playing despite a sprained ankle, at left.

Fischer May Play

Munro was fairly certain last night that Elliot Finkelstein would start in goal, although he was cheered by the news that Lindsay Fischer had received doctor's permission to play. Fischer, the first-string goalie until injured against Dartmouth two weeks ago, has an injured rib cage, and has not worked out in goal since his injury.

Shad Tubman will start at center forward and Grey Hodnett will go at inside left, giving the Crimson a scoring combination whose total of 14 goals exceeds that of any three Tigers. Bill Lingelbach or Charlton MacVeigh will start.
