HOOPMEN BEATEN 29-22 BY DARTMOUTH QUINTET

In an uninspired game, the Harvard Varsity basketball team lost to Dartmouth last night by a score of 29-22. Taking the lead early in the first period, the Hanover quintet kept it throughout the game.

The Big Green's fast team showed its superiority especially in its capable ball handling. This gave the visitors a decided advantage over a Harvard team which seemed to lack the aggressiveness marked by its victory over Williams last Saturday.

Green Leads at Half

Lavietes began the scoring with a field goal thirty seconds after the opening whistle. Gray added another tally shortly after, to put the Crimson well out in front. This lead was soon cut down by skillful Dartmouth shooting, especially on the part of Parachini and Toan. The Green displayed great accurancy in their free throws during this period in contrast to the inability of the Crimson team to find the mark. With fifteen seconds to go, Gray caged a field goal to end the period with Dartmouth leading 18-13.

Crimson Grows Sloppy

During the second period the Harvard team grew sloppier and constantly lost the ball on errors. Captain White began the scoring with a field goal two minutes after the period began. Toan and Thomas soon put the Green well out in front, however, with good passing and accurate shooting. With four minutes and twenty seconds to go, Harvard took a time out, and when play was resumed Dartmouth succeeded in slowing up the play until the gun went off.

Jayvees and Freshmen Win

Harvard's J. V. basketball team nosed out Bryant College 25-23 in a well played game yesterday afternoon. Herrick of Harvard was high point man with 11 points. Wiley and Hauck were outstanding in their team play.

Showing the worst basketball it has played this season, the Freshman Quintet won an easy game from Lawrence Academy last night 41-18. In spite of the fact that the Yearlings held their opponents to a single field goal in the first half, their play was listless, and they lacked the fight which distinguished their early season games.

Howell and Lupien scored twelve and ten points respectively, to take the scoring honors for the Freshmen. Chapman was outstanding for Lawrence, scoring 9 points
