BASKETBALL—A CHECKERED CAREER

Dartmouth lost her home game with Pennsylvania, the league leaders, 42-19, the Green being completely outplayed at every stage of the contest. McNichol, the visitors' guard, was by far their best player, with a record of twelve foul goals out of 17 tries and four goals from the field. Williams alone of the Green showed any form, totalling four field goals and five fouls for a total of thirteen points.

Before a Yale Prom crowd, Dartmouth came back for a 30-18 win, advancing in the league standing to fourth. The Green's superiority was noticeable throughout the contest, Captain Rector playing perhaps the best individual game. For Yale, Kinney was easily the star, scoring all but four of the points for the Blue.

At Wesleyan, however, Dartmouth suffered a reversal of form, and with a substitute team, finished on the short end of a 28-24 score. The defeat was due probably to Coach Loudon's reluctance to permit Williams to enter the game after his exhaustion from the game at New Haven. Captain Harman of Wesleyan displayed the best individual work.

On the home floor, Dartmouth reversed the results of the preceding two games, losing to Yale 28-17, and winning from Wesleyan 30-14. The former was the Winter Carnival game, and was played before the largest audience ever seated in Alumni Gymnasium. Dartmouth started off with a rush, scoring twice on fast passing before Yale caught its breath. The visitors took the lead at the end of the half, however, and were not headed. The Wesleyan game was a romp in two scenes, in which Coach Loudon entered practically every basketball aspirant from the three upper classes. Steele scored the most points individually, and Sisson, before his exit from the game, was a mainstay of the team.
