Crimson Rugby Squad Battles Dartmouth XV

In a far corner of Soldiers Field this afternoon will take place one of the most interesting contests--sporting, that is--of the day. The always powerful Dartmouth rugby team will meet the suddenly powerful Harvard Rugby Club at 3:15 on the rugby field, and the result should be some of the finest play that Cambridge has seen in a long time.

Dartmouth will be playing its first game of the season, and for that reason alone it must be rated the underdog. Harvard slaughtered its four opponents in Bermuda, and will feature what is probably the strongest scrum on the East Coast. If the Crimson runners can perform as well as they did on the spring trip, there will be no contest.

The varsity match will be preceded by a second-team match at 2 p.m., and there may be even a third game at some time during the day.
