TO SEND TEAM TO ENGLAND.
Pennsylvania Cricketers to Play a
Series of Games.

The only proposed international contest
in 1918 Of an intercollegiate nature, out
side Of the projected trip Of the Oxford
Cambridge track team to this country
next spring to meet Yale and Harvard,
is the proposal to send the University Of
Pennsylvania cricket team to England
for a series Of games during July and Au-
gust.
The Pennsylvania cricketers make a
trip each summer but have not been to
England since 1908. 1t is expected that
the team this year will be unusually
good. and for this reason the allied sports
committee in charge of minor athletics
at Pennsylvania discussed and approved
the plan to send the eleven abroad. Capt.
Harmed and Alden Lee are two of the
best cricketers in the Philadelphia dis
trict at the present time, and the Penn
sylvanians expect that with them they
will be able to hold their own with al
most any set of cricketers they may
meet.
There is every likelihood that the pro-
posal will go through and the team will
sail, according to the present arrange
ment late in June, and will not return
until the end Of August. Last season the
Pennsylvania cricketers went to Bermuda,
and in 1911 they spent several weeks in
Canada.
