ATHLETES ARE SCARCE AMONG DARTMOUTH CLASS OFFICERS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

On the strength of their recent class elections, Dartmouth at least can upset the popular notion that a berth on a major team is the only way to popularity and recognition in college.

The officers of the Class of 1928, during the whole of the four-year undergraduate period, were all prominent athletes. In direct contrast, however, are the leaders of this year's senior class. Only one of them is a member of a university team: Rogers, hockey star, was elected treasurer. Orr, the president, is track manager, but has no other connection with the sports field. The vice-president is captain of a minor team, swimming; while the secretary is not even remotely associated with any sport.

Among the junior officers only one is a university athlete; the other three are not even candidates for the major teams. The sophomore leaders do not include a letter-winner.
