Favored Yardlings Six Will Face Dartmouth

The freshman hockey team will try to repeat its 8-3 win over Dartmouth against the Indian freshmen this afternoon at Watson Rink. The Yardling sextet, with a 16-2 record, should have little trouble in gaining the victory.

Despite a defeat last Monday by Colby, the Crimson sextet is still rated as one of the most powerful New England freshman teams. Colby jumped to a quick lead with a first period goal by Jim Houghton. Houghton tallied unassisted shortly thereafter, and the Colby six continued to lengthen its margin. The second line of Ron Ryan, who scored twice, Bob Dietter, and Jim Ackerman accounted for four of Colby's last five goals.

Dave Grannis, skating on the Yardlings' first line, led the visitors with two goals. The third Crimson score was added by Dave Morse.

The only other bright spot for the freshman sextet was the goaltending of captain Bob Bland, who made 40 saves.
