Harvard's varsity track team will travel to Princeton tomorrow for the Heptagonals--its first interesting competition since the Army meet early in the season. Significantly enough, Army may again offer the only serious threat to Crimson aspirations for a Heps championship and one of its most successful seasons in recent history.

In this same competition last year, Yale entered the Heps as a favorite, and emerged the uncontested victor. Harvard ended up a solidly beaten third-place finisher, but grabbed some tasty revenge the following week, when it upset Yale in the final dual meet of the season.

The Crimson is undeniably stronger this year than last, and most crucially, is entering the Heps in much better physical condition. Captain Ed Hamlin will not compete, but beyond this, Harvard is at full strength. Jack Spitzberg will return to competition after a long absence, and will bolster the Crimson in the high jump, which has recently been its one weak event.

Crimson Field Power

As usual in the Heps, Harvard will have to rely on its powerful field aggregation to build up an early lead. Aggrey Awori should win the broad jump, but Chris Ohiri will face stiff competition from Yale's Jim Axtell, who has jumped 24 ft., 1 in., for second place. Ohiri is almost certain to win the triple jump, while Chum Azikiwe and Hoble Armstrong could perhaps add second and third place to the Crimson scoring.

In the weights, only discus thrower John Bakkensen seems certain to place high; Art Doten and Olney Croasdale in the hammer and shot have been slightly inconsistent recently. The trio of Hank Hatch, Peeter Lampe, and Tom Holcombe in the javelin have all been well past 200 ft., and could dominate the scoring in that event.

Awori Faces Competition

In the running, sprint ace Aggrey Awori will face his stiffest competition of the indoor season from Dartmouth's Gerry Ashworth, who beat Awori twice indoors.

The most exciting races of the afternoon will be in the distances, where Yale's Bobby Mack, Army's Bill Straub, and Brown's Dave Farley will hook up in either the mile or two-mile. The Crimson's trio of Eddie Meehan, Bill Crain, and John Ogden will have to improve on their recent performances if they hope to place.
