...last the hapless Crimson basketball forces enter a game in which they cannot be classed as underdogs when they entertain Yale in the Indoor Athletic Building tonight. As a matter of fact, with the advantage of playing in their own back yard, Coach Fesler's cagers rate the favorite's role against Coach Loeffler's erratic quintet...

...surprisingly slow time of 56 flat, while Vergeichik and Harvard' Powers almost swam a dead heat for second, the Lion natator getting the decision. The explanation of Curwen's slow time is that his arm was caught around a lane-marker. Bosworth's 1:43.3 in the 150-yard dorsal event was fast in view of his dubious health, Tom Finnerty barely came in ahead of Craig Moore for second...

Another Columbia threat is portly John Vergeichik in the sprints. He was good for under 54 seconds last year in the 100, but has failed to crack 55 this season. His 50-yard efforts also have not been startling this winter. Jim Curwen is sure to take both sprints handily, Eric Cutler and Frannie Powers will prevail over any Lion men in the distances, and Rusty Greenhood should have no trouble with Jack Keating of the Blue. In fact, Keating may take third behind Crimson's Chet Sagenkahn if the latter continues his consistent work on the springboard. The Columbia...
