ABOUT COLLEGE

The sophomore basketball team won the interclass championship by defeating the seniors 34-23 March 20 in a game that contained some of the best basketball seen on the Alumni Gymnasium court during the winter. It was a noteworthy fact that the senior team was composed entirely of letter men, whereas the sophomore quintet included one varsity player. If some means could be devised for instilling in the varsity men as much enthusiasm as they display in the interclass struggle, Dartmouth might stand a little farther away from the bottom of the intercollegiate league every year.

For the first time in its history, the Dartmouth Christian Association entertained the annual New England Presidents' conference of the Student Young Men's Christian Association on April 14, 15, and 16. Delegates to the number of forty-six were present from twenty-one institutions, as well as eight speakers.

The Dartmouth gym team was barely nosed out by the Brown gymnasts at Alumni Gymnasium March 24, the score being 29-25. Failure by one or two of the Green performers to do their best work, and unfortunate tumbles by Dusossoit and McDonough were responsible for the defeat. W. J. Montgomery '18 has been elected captain of next year's team.

T. L. Cotton '17 was elected president of the Christian Association for the year 1916-1917, and S. B. Emerson, 2nd, '17, was chosen as vice-president at the annual meeting of the Association March 27. The other officers named were W. Sewall '17, secretary, and F. W. Leighton '17, treasurer. By virtue of this election Cotton becomes a member of the 1917 Palaeopitus.
