"There are no its or buts about it," says Jaakko Mikkola, Harvard track coach, "we just have to win that meet with Yale Saturday. That's the way I feel and I'm sure that's the way the team feels too. Although feeling is high in Cambridge that Yale has as much chance of winning, the fiftieth dual meet between the two rivals, this afternoon at 2:30 in the Stadium, as Harvard does of dropping intercollegiate football. Mikkola is making no concessions to his own outfit.

He does, however, admit that the squad is ready for the contest but wishes he knew a little more about Yale's ability in gather, points. Three men who had to sit out the last meet because of injuries will be ready for action against the bulldogs tomorrow. They are Doug Pirnie, Ted Withington, and Cliff Wharton.

Pirnie To Run

Pirnie, who was sidelined with ankle trouble, holds the Harvard record for the 220 of 21.3 seconds which he set on May 30, 1941. He will not run the 220 this afternoon, though; he will be seen in the 100 and the broad jump. Withington pulled a muscle who weeks ago in the stadium and has been taking it easy ever since. He is slated to run in the quarter mile. Wharton will appear in the low hurdles.

In addition to these veterans, the squad that swamped Holy Cross and Rhode Island State last Saturday will be around to add to their laurels. Included in this group are the Fisher brothers, Jack and Willo, one of whom, according to Mikkola, may set a new hammer throw record if all goes well. The present record of 170 feet, 1 inch was set by W. J. Shallow on May 20, 1939.

An advantage for the spectators in this meet over the last one is that the javelin throw will be held inside the stadium, rather than behind the baseball stands.

Jack Hunter, captain and double winner in both previous meets, will run both low and high hurdles, Bob Clark, another former double winner will run the 220 and the quarter mile.
