The University basketball team will play Princeton this evening at 8 o'clock in the Gymnasium in the fourth game of its schedule. The Princeton team this year contains four members of last year's team and although defeated by Columbia and the University of Pennsylvania, has shown steady progress and has defeated Fordham and Brown. Captain Halliday and Ryan are considered two of the strongest players in the intercollegiate league. The team has been practicing longer than Harvard and the team-work is more developed.
In the practice of the University team during the past week, special attention has been given to the development of team-play which has been improved considerably. H. Fish '10, right tackle on the University football team last season, will replace Browne at centre and the latter will play left guard in place of Almy. Fish has been playing only a few days and his playing is still crude, but with his height and weight he should be a valuable man with proper coaching. O. A. Wyman '08, another new man, has shown up well and will be used this evening if necessary.
Admission will be 50 cents and season tickets admitting to the balance of the games in Cambridge will also be on sale at the door.
The teams will line up as follows:
