LANG TO COACH BASKETBALL TEAM
December, 1909

Benjamin Lang '09 has been engaged by the Athletic Council to coach the basketball team for the ensuing season. Although he will have charge of the team in Hanover, he will make no trips. This action was taken as a result of Lang's decision not to play this year, owing to lack of time for practice and training.

Lang is the most consistent and reliable basketball player Dartmouth has ever had. His success as an all-round athlete insures his success as a coach. He was a member of the football team for the years 1905, 1906, 1907, and 1909. He played basketball in 1906, 1907, 1908, the last year being captain. Although he was re-elected last year he did not return to College.
