Ray Carl Lindquist '51 of University Heights, Ohio, was named captain of baseball for the coming year. Lindquist has been the regular shortstop for the past two years and is one of the most stylish operatives at that position seen on Memorial Field in recent years. Both his fielding and his hitting have been consistently good and he is a natural for the post vacated by Roger Frechette. The latter, as we have noted several times this spring, sustained a broken ankle on the spring trip and was unable to play the rest of the season. Frechette was outstanding both behind and in front of the plate during his first two years on the varsity, and his absence from the lineup was undoubtedly one of the factors contributing to the unhappy season. Despite this incapacity, he was awarded the James Henry Cooke ('40) Trophy as the member of the senior class who has done the most for baseball during his college career.

In another award, Stanton Arthur Waterman '50 was given the Paul S. Harmon Trophy for the cross-country runner who has done most for that sport during his undergraduate career. Waterman was captain of the cross-country team last fall and was undefeated in dual meet competi tion in that, his senior, year.

David S. Krivitsky '51 was elected captain tain of track for the coming year. A consistent performer in the middle distances throughout his varsity career, the longstriding Krivitsky will carry on for Tom Richmond, who was captain this current season. Dave was originally tabbed as a cross-country prospect, but later found the middle distances (especially the quarter) more to his liking.

Captain-elect of lacrosse is Robert E. Fiertz '51, who starred this year on the first midfield for Coach Dent. Before coming to Dartmouth, Fiertz played on the lacrosse team at Manhasset, New York.

Continuing the roster of members of the Class of 1951 who will lead their respective cohorts next year, we find Emerson (Duke) Carey 111 of Denver, Colorado, as the newcaptain of golf. The rotund Mr. Carey has been one of the reasons why Coach Tommie Keane's boys had such a good season this year. . . . The final honor in this line went to Josiah H. Welch, who will captain the tennis team in 1951. After failing to win a letter as a sophomore, Welch came along fast his junior year, and thus receives the accolade of the captaincy as a fitting tribute to his progress. Which, by the way, is a thought for all of us.
