Husted and Guibord remained in Boston for the New England intercollegiates, while the rest of the team returned to Hanover. Husted, defending singles champion, dropped his title to Gilbert Hunt of M. I. T. in the finals, 6-a, 6-1, 6-4, but teamed up with Guibord to take the doubles championship from Hughes and Parks of Springfield, 6-3, 1-6, 6-4, 6-3. In the singles competition, Guibord put up a strong fight before Hunt eliminated him in the semi-finals, 10-8, 6-8, 6-4.

On May 17 the Indian netmen opened another four-day jaunt by blanking Columbia at New York, 9-0. The next day they were downed by Princeton, 5-4, but only after the hardest struggle the Tigers have had this year. Husted, playing his best tennis of the year, defeated Flynn, the Princeton ace, in their singles match, and the doubles team of Husted and Guibord was again victorious. Doug Mook won a singles match for Dartmouth and paired with Captain Jerry Hall for another victory in doubles.

Brown was blanked g-o at Providence on May 19, and the season was closed with a 7-2 victory over M. I. T. at Boston on Sunday, May 20. The return match between Husted and Hunt featured the match, and the M. I. T. star won out after three sizzling sets, 6-4, 6-8, 6-3. Hunt and Rethorst upset Husted and Guibord in their doubles match, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4, for the only other point gained by the Engineers.

Dartmouth's six-man team was composed this year of Robert G. Husted '35, Paul L. Guibord '36, Ralph H. Seeley Jr. '35, Captain Gerald M. Hall '34, Douglas C. Mook '35, and Lawrence Marx Jr. '36.
