The basketball team has finished a season that has not been successful in point of the number of games won; five victories and six defeats being the record of the games played. Handicapped by a poor schedule, inferior material, and a change in the coaching system, the team has been unable to make an altogether satisfactory showing.
The season started with but one veteran forward, Captain Mullen, two backs who had had experience, Hoban and Mensel, and Jones and Ryan as substitutes. The position at center was filled by Gibson, who played on last year's freshman team. Toward the end of the season Hedges was eligible to play, and strengthened the team somewhat. Mullen, Hedges, and Ryan will be lost by graduation. Mensel was picked by P. W. Hehir, New England League basketball official, as guard on the second All-New England team.
The record of the team is as follows:
Dartmouth 20—Tech 14.
Dartmouth 18—Colgate 24.
Dartmouth 18—Cornell 34.
Dartmouth 14—Syracuse 11.
Dartmouth 16—Wesleyan 28.
Dartmouth 17—Alumni 14.
Dartmouth 19—Williams 25.
Dartmouth 27—Tufts 19.
Dartmouth 35—Tech 8.
Dartmouth 11—Williams 38.
Dartmouth 10—Wesleyan 27.
