...Princeton and Brown should hold no undue terrors for the Crimson in the coming Pentagonal campaign which gets underway Saturday night. The Tigers have a fine goalie in Torrey and a rugged defenseman in Dick Court, who made the all-tournament first team, but they lack a dependable scoring punch. Brown is an aggressive squad, paced by the hot-tempered Keefe and bad-man Dick Pettit, but the Bruins looked far out of their class against both St. Francis and runner-up R.P.I...
