Dartmouth, which enters the game with a 500 record in E.I.B.L. play, needs a victory tonight to more into a fourth place tie with Yale. Previous to its league win last Saturday, the deep Dartmouth squad defeated the Crimson, 77 to 69, in the semi-finals of the New England Basketball Tournament during the Christmas holiday. The contest didn't count in conference standings...
...varsity was at full strength and primed to win. It started out as if it meant of knock off B.C. and thoroughly avenge two earlier Eagle victories. For two-line changes, the puck was constantly deep in the B.C. zone. Twice, Doug Manchester snaked through the defense to got clean shots at starting goalie Chick D'Entremont, only to have both deflected.

...distance of two feet, it reduces to one-quarter the loudness of deep-toned noise. The effect is like shutting a door against the noise. Closer to the microphone, the silencing effect is much stronger. Olson believes that a sound killer could be built that would use only one watt of current. It would be small enough to hang over the head of a sleeper to protect him from sleep-destroying noises. Another use: making conversation easy in an airplane. The deep roar of the engines would be reduced, while the higher tones of the human voice would...
