Yardling Teams Win Five of Six Matches; Quintet Loses, 71 to 74

Five out of six freshman teams came home winners yesterday.

Only Yardling loss was the basketball team's 71 to 74 defeat at the hands of Dean Academy. Despite Jim Nolan's 23 points, the five failed in the stretch and dropped its first game in eight starts.

Snow ice and a warm sun held the hockey team down to a 3 to 1 win over Exeter. Joe Crehore slapped in two of 42 Yardling shots and Bill Cleary poked in one more for the sextet's ninth straight win.

Up at Concord the squash team whitewashed St. Paul's 5 to 0 with Ham Graven at number four the only member of the team extended beyond three games.

Taking first place in every event but the hammer and discus, the track team ran rough shod 78 to 30 over an Andover squad that last week tripped Yale. Bob Morrison in the 300 and 600 yard runs, and Fletcher Hodges in the broad jump and high jump were the Yardling' only double winners.

Coach Joe Maras kept his "Mr. Zero" tag intact, as his wrestlers beat M.I.T for their fourth straight shutout. The Yardlings had six pins in eight matches.

Dave Hawkins set a pool record of 24.2 seconds in the 50 yard freestyle and the swimmers went on to beat a Quonset Naval Air Station team, 43 to 32, at Quonset. John Holcenberg who won the 100 yard breaststroke and Ed Benton who won the 100 yard backstroke were also members of the winning 150 yard medley relay team, along with Doug Mansfield.
