Art Quirk '59 completed a 9-8 record with the Rochester Orioles in the International AAA League. His biggest victory was a no-hitter on July 4 against Syracuse in which he struck out nine men and walked only one.

The new football brochure "Football at Dartmouth 1961," put out by Director of Sports Information Ernie Roberts, reveals some interesting facts concerning Dartmouth football records. Did you know, for instance, that two records set prior to 1927 still stand? In 1919 against Cornell, lames E. Robertson '20 kicked a 55-yard field goal, a mark which has never been equalled.

The longest pass play was made on October 23, 1926 and covered 74 yards. The play went from Eddie "Death" Dooley '26, now Congressman from New York, to Myles Lane '28, now a well-known federal judge. Lane's career record of 48 touchdowns is also unmatched.

Chase Field is taking on a new look these days. Within the last few weeks workmen have built a fence around an area in which Coach Ellie Noyes' trackmen will be throwing the discus and hammer next spring. The new field house encroaches upon the former throwing area located on Memorial field. Lights have also been installed on Chase Field for the benefit of the football team. During the warm weather in early September the customary afternoon practice sessions were postponed until late afternoon or early evening and the powerful lights were turned on.
