TITLE BASKETBALL
SERIES IS CLOSE
Penn Is Leading Dartmouth by
the Scant Margin Of

The race for the intercollegiate League

home stretch. Penn is still setting the
pace. but Dartmouth is clinging close
TO the leader. ready to assume command
and TO dash on to its first championship
In many years.
The issue has narrowed down to these
two teams. The worst that can befall
Dartmouth. which trails Penn by half
a game is TO be tied for second place
with Cornell. provided the Big Green
loses its two remaining games while the
Ithacans are winning their two. Cornell
closes It's season this week by opposing
Columbia next Wednesday evening and
Yale on Saturday.
Dartmouth plays only one game this
week. against Columbia on Saturday.
This should result in another triumph
for the Hanoverians. as the local col
legians are about spent Columbias
overwhelming defeat by Princeton last
Saturday night convinced the Blue and

because the Yale team is SO much more
