WITH THE BIG GREEN TEAMS

ALTHOUGH the chances of a championship team this spring appear remote, this could still be an interesting season for the Dartmouth teams. Coach Pete Gardner has one of his finest crews practicing on the Connecticut River, and the lacrosse team has the potential to develop into a winner. Even the baseball team, despite the won-loss record of the Southern trip, could go a long way—if the pitching comes through.

Even the best of teams need a certain amount of luck to put together a winning season, let alone a championship, and when luck seems to be going the other way it can be a long season indeed. With the main part of the season yet to begin, Dartmouth varsity teams have already taken it on the chin somewhat, from the Southern opponents and from Lady Luck, but now with several additional weeks of practice in the Nathaniel Leverone Field House and outside, a brighter fortune may hopefully be in store.

On the road trips into the South the Indian teams accumulated a combined total of five wins and seventeen losses. Although many individuals showed great promise in the warm weather competition, the possibilities for successful seasons will depend in good part, as always, on the development of reserve strength.

Now let's take a look at how the teams line up with the league season just around the corner.
