Rain yesterday eliminated Harvard from a possible tie for the Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League championship.

Until yesterday, the nine was considered a possible contender for League honors. With a record of four wins and two losses, the Crimson could figure in the final standings if league-leading Princeton dropped one of its two remaining games and if Harvard won the Brown and Yale games and a cancelled game with Dartmouth which would be rescheduled if there were a possibility of a tie.

However, because Brown will be out of school and therefore unable to play, the best record the Crimson could compile would be six and two, .028 less than that of Army, which has already completed its season with a seven and two record.
