Dartmouth 9, Middlebury I. Dartmouth won its first home match of the season on Hilton Field by overwhelming the visiting aggregation from Middlebury by the score of 9-1. Playing at No. 1 for Dartmouth, the massive Duke Carey, Dartmouth captain, won his match with ease, 6 and 5. Howie Bissell, playing in the No. 2 spot, lost the only match of the day for the Green, when he dropped a tight one on the 18th hole. Dartmouth's Ed Eichler and Chief Cornish, playing No. g and 4 respectively, both won their individual matches, a feat which was equalled by Southworth and Fast of the Green. Playing in the seventh position, Dick Barsanti won his match by the topheavy margin of 7 and 6. In the best ball competition, Carey and Bissell won 2 and 1; Eichler and Cornish did likewise by the score of 5 and 3; and the third twosome, Southworth and Fast, came through by 2 and 1.

Brown 51/9, Dartmouth 41/%. Playing over their home course, the Brown golfers inflicted a narrow defeat on Coach Tom Keane's warriors, thereby breaking a three-match winning streak of the Dartmouth mashie experts. In the first match of the day, Captain Duke Carey lost by the margin of 2 and 1, a distance which was shortened even more in the No. 2 match, when Howie Bissell lost 1 down. Carey and Bissell then lost the best ball by 1 down in the closest match of the day. The team thus entered the second foursome with a 3-0 deficit, after which Ed Eichler then won both his match and the best ball, leaving the match at 4-2, in favor of Brown. Dartmouth's Southworth fired a sensational 73, thereby winning both his match and the best ball for his foursome, while his mate Phil Fast was absorbing a beating from the Brownie. With the score 5-4 in favor of Brown, Bob Stiles of Dartmouth sank a 20-foot put on the 18th hole to tie his match, after which the Brown coach gallantly refused a play-off hole. This meant that the teams split the points and Brown won the match.
