YALE HOCKEY TEAM INVADES GARDEN; HOOPSTERS JOURNEY TO NEW HAVEN

Elis Last Hurdle in Best Year Since '39

By Robert S. Landau

Don't look now, but Harvard is well on its way to taking the Yale hockey series for the first time in the college career of any of the participants, when the two sextets meet in the Boston Garden at 8:15 o'clock tomorrow night.

Last weekend the Crimson skaters had a comparatively easy time of it when they outscored the Elis 4 to 1 in New Haven, and there is no reason to believe that their task will be any tougher when playing on semi-home ice.

Good Season Coming Up

If tomorrow night's fracas turns out as expected, this will be the most successful hockey season since 1939. The puck Chasers have already clinched second place behind Dartmouth in the Pentagonal League, and have lost only two games out of fifteen, with one tie.

Although in third place in the League, Yale's record this year is not as comparable to the Crimson's as the difference of only one position in the standings would indicate, for the Murdochmen have dropped four encounters in eleven.

Coach John Chase still rates the Loring-Acker-W. Harding line as his top combination, but that's no indication that it will be in at the opening face-off, since Dick Harding, Albie Everts, and Johnny Burton, who head the scoring lists, got the nod last Saturday and may start off again.
