In the first game of the Southern trip the University lacrosse team will meet the Crescent Athletic Club at Brooklyn this afternoon at 4 o'clock. This is the first game played with the Brooklyn team since 1909 and as the Crescent's teams are notably well-drilled and experienced the contest this afternoon is sure to test the ability of the University players.

The University team has played one game so far this spring, losing a close contest to the Boston Lacrosse Club last Saturday. This is far from discouraging, however, as Coach Warwick was enabled to make several advantageous shifts in the line-up. The new men on the team this year are E. B. Flu '17, at cover-point, W. A. Elliott '15 at defence, R. H. Franzen '17 at attack, and O. H. Persons '17 at in-home.

The team will line up as follows for Saturday's game: g., Cochran; p., O'Neil; c.p., Flu; d., Catton; 2d., Beal; 3d., Elliott; c., Wanamaker; 3a., Nash; 2a., Fleming; 1a., Franzen; i.h., Persons; o.h., Nightingale (captain).
