Indoor Track

In the two big indoor meets, the Green was represented in scoring by three menCaptain Pete McCreary, Nels Ehinger, and Sam Daniell. In the IC4A meet, the major scoring was done by McCreary, who won the 60-yard high hurdles to climax his intensive winter campaign over the timbers, against the best competition in the country. The only other points for Dartmouth were won by Nels Ehinger, who tied for first in the high jump. Between them, these two Dartmouth performers won a tie for eighth place (with Princeton) in the meet.

A week later, in the Heptagonals, Dartmouth again took an eighth place, but this time the field was smaller and composed exclusively of the Ivy League institutions. McCreary had the rare experience of seeing the back of somebody's jersey and finished second in the high hurdles. Ehinger again tied for first in the high jump, and Sam Daniell managed to get a fourth in the 600. The rest of the 21-man squad failed to get into the money.

Dartmouth 55 2/3, Brown 48 1/3- Dartmouth opened a series of three indoor dual meets (with contests against Yale and Boston University to come) against Brown on the local cinders on the same day the basketball and hockey teams were bowing out to the home fans. This was a surprisingly close meet and one which was not decided until the final event, the mile relay, which Dartmouth won handily, after erasing a 15-yard deficit. The outstanding performances of the day were shared by Brown and Dartmouth. The Bruins' captain came through with a 60-foot toss in the 35-pound weight throw, which TheDartmouth thoughtfully pointed out is the rough equivalent of a 15-foot pole vault. The other new mark was set by Sam Daniell of the Green, who romped over the 600-yard run in 1:12.6 for a new indoor Dartmouth record.
