...losing battle that Wes Fesler's Varsity hoop men waged Wednesday night against the Dartmouth Indians was a great one; the small Crimson five literally fought the vaunted invaders off their feet and refused to wilt throughout 40 minutes of bruising basketball. Defeat came only because the Big Green carried too many physical guns for Charley Lutz and his Harvard gamesters...

...Coach Fesler started a team that was forced to give away roughly three inches and 30 pounds per man to the E. I. L. defending champions, led by an uncanny marksman, Gus Broberg. Dartmouth had been able to win as it pleased, toying with the Feslermen in the first meeting of the two teams at Hanover, but Wednesday's return bout was one of the best basketball games ever played on the Indoor Athletic Building floor...

But none of the second year men liked lickings, and Ed Buckley, Bud Finegan, and Will Webber were in a position to do something about it. Whenever they were ready to play good basketball, Charley Lutz was there waiting for them. Even the greenest supporting cast could not dim Lutz's brilliance, and Sophomores like Buckley, Webber, Finegan, Joe Romano, Ed Rothschild, Jack Penson...

...unmerciful plastering from the Big Green in Hanover about a week ago, but the Tigers will provide formidable opposition tonight. The Feslermen may be a bit bruised and leg-weary after their heroic efforts to stop Gus Broberg and Company, but they will never stop fighting. And Wes Fesler will see to it that their fight will be an intelligent...
