Sextet to Meet Providence Away; Clasby Will Move Up to First Line

A re-shuffled varsity hockey lineup will take the ice at 8:15 tonight in the Providence Arena, as Coach Cooney Weiland tries to find his scoring punch against Providence College. The match is the second of the season for the Crimson, which was smothered, 5 to 1, at Dartmouth, in its opener.

Tonight's opponents are expected to five the varsity a stiff test, for they played Boston College even for two periods before succumbing, 8 to 5. Providence took a 10 to 2 walloping in a scrimmage against Brown, however, but center Rod Gorman performed well in both matched and will be a big threat this evening.

To meet the Providence attack, Weiland will use the same defensive alignments he used against the Indians, except that sophomore Charlie Flynn will start his first varsity game in the nets.

The Crimson coach also plans to bring Dick Clasby up to the starting line at left wing to bolster his attack. Captain Norm Wood at center and Jeb Bray complete the first line.
