...defeating Princeton twice and the University once, Yale has made sure of her claim to the triangular title, but the Crimson nine has the opportunity of tying the individual series with Yale by taking tomorrow's engagement. S. H. Johnson '20 will start in the box for the University, opposing Talcott, who has pitched all of Yale's important games this season.
