OTHER WINTER SPORTS

A victory in the two-mile relay plus some key individual efforts were the ingredients of Dartmouth's 55-54 win over Colgate in the opening dual meet of the indoor track season. Eric Potter, the junior from Clinton, N. Y., was a major instrument in the Indians' victory. He won the mile run and then anchored the two-mile relay that avenged a 57-52 loss to Colgate a year ago.

The Indians, competing without 13 men who had been expected to be available but were missing due to injuries or winter term studies off campus (including co-captain Bob Brown who's studying in Guatemala), did come up with some surprises against Colgate.

Clark Judge, a sophomore, took over for Brown and gained the edge in the 600. As expected, co-captain Bill Dinneen won the 35-pound weight event with a distance of 59 feet, 7 inches, and senior Steve Johnson took the pole vault in a key performance late in the meet.

One of the interesting bits of competition this season will be the brother act of Ted and Wayne Moody, the junior and sophomore shotputters. Ted is the Dartmouth record-holder and Wayne set the freshman record last year. Against Colgate, Wayne had a five-inch edge on Ted but both were well below their record performances.

Turning to squash, Coach John Kenfield has a senior-laden squad and it was this corps of veterans who turned the tables on Army, 6-3, at West Point to give Dartmouth a 3-1 record in the early going.

The leading seniors are Jim Smith, Captain Justin Stanley, and Dave Miskell, all of whom won at Army. They are getting rapid assistance from Doug Donahue, a stylish sophmore who has moved up the ladder to the fourth spot. This quartet, along with junior Wade Judge, won the top five matches against Army, and while Kenfield isn't predicting any great upsets against Harvard or Penn, he feels his team can be competitive with anyone in the Ivy League this season.

In wrestling, the Indians bowed to New Hampshire and Brown but then came through with three victories by falls against M.I.T. to take a 24-20 decision. Bruce Douglas (134), Bob Elliott (142), and heavyweight Dick Pritchard came up with the pins against the Engineers. It was a big win for Dartmouth, which is operating under part-time coach Jeff Stevens in the absence of Gary Golden (who will be joining Bob Blackman on the Illinois football staff).
