Alumni Ski Team
February 1935 C. E. Widmayer '30

An alumni ski team of 16 members will represent the Dartmouth Alumni Outing Club in competition this season. This team of former wearers of the Green is believed to be the only one of its kind in the country and is modelled after the famous Red Birds of McGill University. The Hochgebirge Ski Club, which the Alumni will meet on February 10, is made up almost entirely of Harvard graduates, but is not strictly an alumni organization.

The members of the Alumni team are John P. Carelton '22, Marvin Chandler '32, William T. Dewey '33, Henry L. Durgin '33, Richard L. Emerson '34, Richard P. Goldthwait '33, Donald Hight '30, William O. Keyes '29, Charles L. Knight Jr. '32, Thomas D. Mann '33, Lincoln R. Page '31, John B. Roberts '34, George K. Sanborn '38, Hermann N. Sander '30, Robert W. St. Louis '31, and John A. Titcomb '32. Most of the team members are located in New England, but three come from New York and one from New Jersey.

The alumni skiers will have the coaching services of Otto Schniebs, and will assemble at the Moosilauke headquarters of the D. A. O. C. on week-ends for sessions with Coach Schniebs and for team competitions. The Alumni-Hochgebirge meet will be held, at Moosilauke, and the Ravine Camp will also be the scene of the Eastern Downhill Championships on March 10.

The Ravine Camp of the Dartmouth Alumni Outing Club provides every sort of ski terrain, including the famous Hell's Highway, the steepest and most difficult run in New England. The Camp is open to all skiers by reservation, and has a guest rate of $3.00 per day. Week-end ski schools under the direction of Otto Schniebs will be continued during the early part of February, at the three-day rate of $13.00 complete. Reservations may be made through Ford K. Sayre, Hutmanager, Ravine Camp, Warren, N. H.
