Eight Teams Invited To Carnival Ski Meet
EIGHT OF THE EAST'S top intercollegiate ski teams have been invited to compete in the 40th Annual Dartmouth Winter Carnival Meet, which is being held on the first week-end in February instead of the second because of the revision of the College calendar. The eight teams are Harvard, M. I. T., McGill, Middlebury, St. Lawrence and the state universities of Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. (The 1950 Dartmouth Invitational Meet will mark the 35th anniversary of the first intercollegiate ski meet in the U. S., which was held in conjunction with the 1915 Dartmouth Carnival.)
Outdoor Evening will again be staged in Memorial Stadium and several members of The Players have offered to assist Kenneth H. Little '5l, director of that event. Tentative plans for selecting candidates for Carnival Queen are the same as last year's. During Friday afternoon, February 3, a group of undergraduates will mingle with the Carnival visitors and "tag" a specified number of student guests, one of whom will be chosen Queen.
The 1950 Winter Carnival Poster, which went on sale shortly before Christmas vacation, was drawn by Colin C. Stewart IV '4B of Hanover, a member of the varsity ski team. The poster's central figure is a skier going through a slalom gate.
Members of the 1950 Winter Carnival Committee are Theodore E. Bamberger '5O of Cleveland Heights, Ohio, chairman; Peter Fleming- '5l of Elkhart, Ind., competitions; Donald R. Freund '5O of Hohokus, N. J., tickets; William S. Friendlander '5l of Barrington, 111., transportation; Webster T. Gault '5O of New York City, publicity; Thomas H.
