CRIMSON SEXTET FACES YALE IN FIRST GAME OF HOCKEY SERIES IN THE PAVILION TONIGHT

The Crimson and the Blue hockey teams meet tonight in the Pavilion at 8.15 o'clock in the opening game of the annual Triangular Hockey League series between the University, Princeton, and Yale. Also tonight's game is the first to be played under the new rules adopted at the League meeting in New York this week.

The University will have the same lineup as for the three previous games of the season, and with the final polishing up that Coach Alfred Winsor '02 has given them, they should have a slight edge over the Yale sextet, although they have lost the dash that characterized the earlier games. In the Toronto and B.A.A. games the team showed up in its best form, but in the scrimmages of the past week they have failed to make the most of their opportunities.

Crimson Defense Strong.

The defense men of the Crimson sextet should have the best of the Eli back line, as both J. Stubbs '20 and Captain N. S. Walker, Jr., '20, have played brilliant hockey throughout the season. In goal, J. Holmes, Jr., '21, has been a consistently efficient back-stop, letting nothing that could be stopped get by him. Day, the Yale goal, played as a substitute during the Canadian trip, while Walker played regularly in that position. The forward lines should balance each other, as both E. L. Bigelow '21 and Captain Ingalls of the Yale team have shown up brilliantly in the games that have been played.

That the University has lost the three games they have taken part in is no proof of their inferiority, inasmuch as they have been matched against the best of the American and Canadian teams. The sextet has played good hockey from start to finish, but the teams against them had too many men of individual brilliancy.

Tickets for the game may still be purchased either at the Pavilion or the H. A. A. at $2.20 apiece.
