Lacrosse Ten To Face Elis In Last Game

Time was when a Yale lacrosse contest at the end of the season meant little more than the traditional "blood game," since the Bulldogs were usually fighting for first place and the Crimson battling to stay out of the cellar. Tomorrow, however, the two teams will face each other in New Haven with identical 1-3 Ivy League records and a fourth-place finish at stake.

The Crimson promises to be as far "up" for the match tomorrow as it was for the hard-fought Williams contest Wednesday.

However, an ominous note was sounded yesterday as star goalie Dick MacKinnon suffered "a possible shoulder separation" and may be forced to miss the game. If he is unable to play, Chris Stone will take his place.

The attack will be at full strength with Dub Mallonee, Nick Lamont and Jerry Pyle starting, and Fran Loewald and Andy Leaf ready to fill in. Mallonees eight goals and two assists in the last two games have made him the top individual scorer on the team with a season total of 28 goals and 17 assists, Pyle is second with 22 goals and 21 assists.

The midfield situation will depend on Parks' ability to run tomorrow, but if he is anywhere near top condition he will play first midfield with Dave Birch and Charlie Devens. If he can't run all the time he will be relieved by Jerry Cotter or Jerry Pyle. Manuel Cabral, Larry Connell and Mike Rockefeller will pay second midfield. The defense will be Jim Herscot, John Baldwin and Bob Shaunessy or Keyes. The freshman lacrosse team will attempt to put a successful finish on a season of amazing improvement when it meets the Bullpups at New Haven tomorrow.
