The hapless Yardling lacrosse will this afternoon play host to Nichols Junior College and the spirit if not the result will be in sharp opposition of the Laws of Hospitality so revered by the Greeks of the Goldern Age. The attempted sacrilege is scheduled to begin at 3 p.m. on the Business School mire.

Winless after many starts and sensitive after many sound drubbings, among them a 16-2 peaen to Exeter and a 9-5 libation at Andover, the jaded freshmen should be most inhospitable.

Little is known or the flavor of the Nichols squad.

Byron Johnson will be on the mound for the freshman nine today when it meets one of its toughest opponents of the year, the New Hampshire freshmen.

The Yardling 'B' team had an easy time of it yesterday afternoon as they stumbled through a 19-8 win over New Prep. Bill Brannan and Chuck sailstad pitched, while Dave Fairburn formed the other half of the battery. The Yardling 'A's' oppose two more tough teams at the end of the week when they take on B.U. on Friday and Dartmouth on Saturday.
