...Halifax team is composed mostly of Dalhousie graduates and is less experience than the regular Dalhousie team. Both teams play hard, however, and judging from the practice of the past two days the game should be very closely contested. The Dalhousie team has only been defeated twice in the last six years, and should therefore have the advantage.
