To the Editor:

Saturday, January 9, was a disastrous day for the athletic teams representing Dartmouth College. The basketball, track, hockey, squash and swimming teams wee all defeated in intercollegiate competition. Following on the wake of a somewhat disappointing football season, these defeats portended dreary winter for the many rabid fans following the fortunes of Dartmouth in the athletic world.

The clamor used to be that Dartmouth's athletic teams should stay in its (sic.) own league-that is play only Ivy League teams. Now the question arises is the Ivy League getting too tough for Dartmouth?

If the Administration continues its present policy of overlooking a large percentage of the exceptionally talented athletes who apply to Dartmouth, it won't be long before we replace Harvard as number one educational institute of the East. How about Army and Navy on next year's football schedule?
