The men's ski team found what the depths of depression could be over the weekend, when it sank to an undisputed last-place finish at the Dartmouth Winter Carnival, held at the Dartmouth Skiway in Lyme, N.H.

The skimen's moments were unquestionably dim--sophomore Albert Leger had Harvard's best showing with a 26th-place finish in she 15-km. cross country race, alpinist Jeff Donahue copped 34th out of 50 in the slalom, and captain David Rothman, in his first race after a back injury, claimed the Crimson's best showing in the giant slalom with his 43rd-out-of-50 finish.

The men's ski team will have a chance to regain its composure when it faces the same 10 NCAA Division I squads at the Williams College Carnival next week at Brodie Mountain in western Massachusetts.
