The Columbia team will be considerably changed from that which held Harvard to a bare 5 to 4 victory last year, having only two veterans. Raymond Stone and Howard Roe, who played numbers two and six, respectively, in 1929. First man for the Lions is David Jones, a sophomore, who led his freshman team last year.

The Crimson netmen will meet strong opposition against Penn tomorrow afternoon. The Red and Blue team has defeated Colgate, 8 to 1, and Haverford, 9 to 0, while in 1929 it took three matches against the Crimson. Four veterans will oppose Harvard in the match at Philadelphia.
