SOCCER

A five-game mid-season slump was a distant memory as Dartmouth's soccer team bade farewell to coach Whitey Burnham by trimming Princeton 3-2. Burnham, who steps down after 10 years as coach of soccer at Dartmouth to become assistant director of athletics, shook the Indians into victories in three of their last four games (topping Yale, Cornell and the Tigers) to close the season with a 5-6 record, including a 3-4 Ivy mark.

The 4-2 win at Yale ended the doldrums for the Indians who opened the season with wins over Middlebury and Springfield and then lost five in a row.

Randy Quayle, a junior from Bronxville, N. Y., led the scoring with three goals and as many assists. He got one goal and set up the winning marker at Princeton, while Charlie Silcox, the fine halfback, added another against the winless Tigers. Silcox, who succeeds fullback Greg Church from Elkhart, Ind., as captain of the 1970 booters, had another goal during the 2-1 win over Cornell.
