Tokyo Trip Off For Gridders

You can put away your English. Japanese dictionary. And that raw fish you planned on may just have to come out of your aquarium Because the Harvard football team is not going to Japan to play in the Mirage Bowl next season.

At a meeting of the Ivy League presidents late in December, the request by Harvard and UPenn to reschedule their Ivy contest from Saturday, November 13 to the Sunday after Thanks giving, and to change the site of the game from Philadelphia to Tokyo, was denied.

Mirage Bowl officials have selected Clemson and one of its Atalantic Coast Conference rivals, possibly Wake Forest or Duke, as a replacement.
