Sports occupied a prominent place in the summer's activities as the baseball team Won its first game of the season against Windsor to the tune of 5-3, While the Corinthian Yacht Club Won the famed MacMillan Cup. Dartmouth's foremost runner, Don Burnham, beat ICLLA champ MacMitchell to the iinish in the mile run adding more honors to Dartmouth's athletic fame. There was an active Fraternity Baseball League playing all summer on the campus Whose first match was with Psi U and Theta Chi. The long summer evenings were not dull for there Were Jam Sessions, Band Concerts and Blackouts. On the steps of Robinson Hall, Doc Fielding held forth, bringing the toWn,s hidden talent to light.
