Defeating Harvard, Yale and Princeton in, one season is something that no previous Dartmouth team has ever done. Victor over all other opponents as well, the boys from the Hanover hills boasted a string of 22 games without defeat when they met Cornell, their most formidable opponent of the year, last week. But against Cornell's stonewall line, Dartmouth met its Waterloo.

Victor Moore wowed the audience in the role of a dumbbell U. S. Ambassador to the Soviet Union. The pretty Goodhue girls revived memories of the Florodora Sextet.
