Resumption of football relations with Columbia, starting next fall, and the announcement of a 1936 schedule containing three major home games were the highlights of news emanating from the Dartmouth Athletic Council offices during January. After a lapse of three years, the Lions and Indians will meet in New York next fall on November 30, the Saturday following the Dartmouth-Princeton contest. In 1936 the Columbia eleven will come to Hanover, and the third game of the series will go back to New York. The hoped-for tradition of a Dartmouth-Princeton finale each year will be interrupted for just one year, and will be resumed in 1936.

The 9-game schedule for 1936 is noteworthy not only for its inclusion of three major home games but also for the new early-season policy evident in the scheduling of Holy Cross as the Green's third opponent. The appearance of Holy Cross, Brown and Columbia in Hanover a year from next fall will make the 1936 home season the finest in many years. Starting with the Crusaders, the Big Green eleven will face seven major opponents in a row in 1936.

The realignment of Dartmouth and Columbia has served to revive talk of an Eastern Football Conference, made up of Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Dartmouth, Cornell, Brown, Columbia and Pennsylvania. Starting next fall, the Indians will be playing all but one of these teams. Harry R. Heneage '07, supervisor of athletics at Dart mouth, has declared that such a Conference is very close to realization. The Dartmouth schedules for the next two seasons follow:

1935

Sept. 28 Oct. 5 12 19 a 6 Nov. 2 9 16 23 30 Norwich. Vermont. Bates. Brown at Providence. Harvard at Cambridge. Yale at New Haven. William and Mary. Cornell. Princeton at Princeton. Columbia at New York.

1936
