Princeton, Barnaby says, is "always good and deep" and will be doubly troublesome on their home courts. The Tigers, for the first time in several years, lack a really outstanding star, and "you don't need a man like Dale Junta on your team to lick them at number one." But there is always a problem of adjustment to playing conditions for the visiting team, and, although the varsity did well at Navy and Penn, Princeton will be a good deal stiffer...
