Its ten-game losing streak as obvious as a ten-month pregnancy, Bill Barclay's varsity basketball team gets another chaned at the Arena tonight when it goes against EIL runner-up Columbia at 9:30 p.m. Gordon Ridings' small but quick Lions gouged the Crimson 86 49 earlier this winter in New York.

To even the score tonight, Coach Barclay will use the same five men who started against. Army and Dartmouth. This means John Rockwell, sophomore Bob Bramball, and Bill Prior up front, with Dick Covey and Steve Davis at the guards. "They've been working well together for the past three weeks," Barclay said yesterday. "At Hanover Saturday they had more shots than Dartmouth, but they just couldn't hit."

"Trying too Hard"

Barclay feels all the team needs is a little confidence. "They're trying too hard," he explains. "If they didn't have that losing streak on their back, they'd relax. But now when they go into a game and get a couple of bad breaks, they start pressing."

It is imperative that the Crimson relax tonight. Time is running out in Ivy League competition, with only seven games remaining, and the Varsity is currently holding up the rest of the league with a 0-5 record.
