A busy weekend is in store for the varsity and freshman salling teams. The varsity sailors will race at a Raven heptagonal meet at Coast Guard this afternoon and in the preliminaries of the New England Intercollegiate Sailing Championship on the Charles at 9 a.m. Sunday.
Rear-Commodore Fred Hoppin will lead the squad in tomorrow's N.E.I.S.A. contest against Amherst, Boston College, and Rhode Island. At the same time, a skilled M.I.T. team, which has twice defeated the Crimson this year, will compete with three other colleges in New London. The twin events precade the elimination bouts for the New England championship.
Tommy Townsend, John Deknatel, and Bill Owens will be probable skippers in Sunday's race. George Cronin will sail in a 24-foot sloop at New London.
The freshmen start off their season near the M.I.T. boathouse at 5 p.m. today. They will sail in the first elimination races of the Nickerson Trophy dinghy competition.
