Eight House hockey teams will skate upon Arena ice this afternoon in the first Intramural hockey tournament in House Plan history.

Rink Has Been a Problem

With the face-off of the Adams and Dudley centers in the initial tile at 2.30 o'clock, plans for House hockey which have been brewing for several years will finally materialize. Prior to this year, a great deal of enthusiasm had been registered by ambitious House punsters, but no convenient rink could be found. Shortly before the Christmas recess, Adolph W. Samborski '25, director of Intramural Athletics, offered a solution by announcing that games could be arranged either in the Garden or the Arena during the exam period, since there are few Varsity practices at this time.

There will be two sessions this afternoon, the first starting at 2.30 o'clock, the second at 3.30 o'clock. Two matches will be played in each, alternating period for period.

Champions Will Face Ellis

The four winners of this afternoon's contests will be paired in the semifinals scheduled for 3.30 o'clock Monday, January 27, at the Garden. On Friday, January 31, the final tilt will be held, time and place to be announced later. The champions will be given the opportunity of practicing together during February, and several games may be played with prep school teams. They will travel to New Haven in February to meet the Eli intramural champs. Today's schedule follows:

2.30 o'clock: Adams vs. Dudley; Eliot vs. Kirkland.

3.30 o'clock: Dunster vs. Lowell; Leverett vs. Winthrop.
