Harvard's good-one-day, mediocre-the-next baseball team this weekend will run into that part of the schedule against which it has been definitely mediocre. For in its games against Pennsylvania (here today) and Navy (there tomorrow), the varsity nine must again face the EIBL competition which has accounted for all four of its losses in college competition.

One year ago the Crimson swept through the Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League, losing only the final, deciding, contest to Yale; but this year the results have been quite different, as a nine with a 9-0 record against all other foes, boasts only a 3-4 EIBL mark.

Besides closing the league slate for the year, the two games also will be the varsity's last until after examinations, when it plays two Greater Boston League contests, one with Amherst and two Commencement games with Yale.

Today, with last-place Penn furnishing the opposition on Soldiers field at 3 p.m., the varsity should be able to even its league record. Coach Norm Shepard will start Dom Repetto, who a year ago won his first varsity game against the Quakers, in relief.

This evening the team will board a sleeper for Annapolis, where it will play a fair Middle nine. Southpaw Bob Kessler or Captain Ken Rossano will do the mound duties for the Crimson. The varsity must sweep both games if it hopes to make the first division of the EIBL. Navy, with a 3-3 record, is one of the two teams it must pass.

Hard-hitting Dick Fisher, who drove in three runs when he returned to the lineup against Brandeis, will again start in left field. The rest of the lineup will remain constant, with John Simourian on first. Bob Cleary at second, Tom Bergantino at third, Bob Hastings at short-stop, Walt Stahura in center, Matt Botsford in right, and either "Bing" Crosby or Phil Haughey behind the plate.
