Dartmouth Beats Crimson Golfers In Close Match

The Crimson golfers yesterday became the first Harvard team to lose a game in 23.

A small, tricky course in Hanover foiled the squad, and Dartmouth edged them out, 4-2. The Green proved its familiarity with the course, as one Indian shot par and two others only one over par.

John Olson, shooting number six, ran into hard luck, as he has all season. He shot a 72 (two over par) but was paired with the Dartmouth golfer who shot a par score, and he lost one up. Olson had turned in the best round at the Easterns last weekend, when the Crimson placed a disappointing twelfth of 14 teams.

Captain Stan Abrams, number one, and Jim Campen, in the second position, played well but both lost four and three as their oponents shot 71. Pete Tague, John Hawkins, and Kit Barrow turned in the victories.

The Princeton golfers come to Cambridge Friday for the Crimson's last match of the year.
