GREEN JOTTINGS

Jim Page is the Eastern coach-of-the-year in skiing after leading the Green to the Eastern title and fourth place in the NCAA meet. Freshmen John Macomber and Arne Nielsen gained All-America honorable mention and are among six Dartmouth skiers named to the All-East first and second teams. Chris Nice and Steve Murphy have been elected captains of the 1975 Green skiers. Macomber won the Donald Cook Award as the outstanding freshman skier and the Norwegian Trophy for overall outstanding performance. Don Nielsen, the 1974 captain, won the Robert Gebhardt Award for dedication to skiing at Dartmouth.

Bob Funk, the two-time All-Ivy League center, has become Dartmouth's 13th recipient of an NCAA postgraduate scholarship. Originally named an alternate for the award, Funk, from Augusta, Kans., joined teammate Tom Csatari who was named for the NCAA grant in January.

Two coaching changes will take place in June: Ted Paulauskas, the freshman basketball coach, has been named director of athletics and head basketball coach at St. Anselm's College, and Jim Higgins, who had a record of 52-17-1 during four years as Dartmouth's freshman hockey coach, will assume a similar position at Brown.

Sandy Tierney, a junior from Marblehead, Mass., will captain the 1974-75 squash team and also is captain of Dartmouth's sailing team this spring. Jim Conterato, another junior, from Geneva, Ill., is the 1974-75 wrestling captain. He's also a standout linebacker in football.

The Ivy League sports information directors have tapped Dartmouth to win the Ivy football title in 1974. The Ivy publicists tapped Dartmouth in 1970-71-72, but turned to Yale last year. In a race expected to be as close as last fall, the Green was given a narrow edge over Penn and Yale. The predicted order of finish: Dartmouth, Penn, Yale, Harvard, Brown, Cornell. Princeton, Columbia.
