DINNER TO "D" MEN

A dinner at the Inn was held February 22, at which sixty odd "D" men of the College, present and past members of the Athletic Council, and invited guests were present. It was the purpose of the dinner to secure from every point of view suggestions for the conduct of Dartmouth athletics and the maintenance of high ideals of sport; some of the suggestions received embodied new ideas; others, old ideas reaffirmed. But all the twenty-five speeches were but variations of two main themes: insistence upon clean sport, and cooperation with the Athletic Council.

Two definite things may result from the dinner and the discussion which followed it: the establishment of the dinner, the idea of which originated with Professor Lingley, as an annual affair; and the formation of a varsity club, composed of the "D" men of the College. The formation and advantages of such a club were suggested and discussed by W. Hugus and H. R. Lane '07, a member of the Council.
