The Harvard-Yale-Princeton meet will take place during spring vacation as will the Harvard-Dartmouth Race in Tuckerman's Ravine on Mt. Washington.

The Lake Placid meet during Christmas vacation, in which the Crimson skimen trailed Dartmouth and Williams in third place, revealed two good jumpers in Richard Whittemore '40 and Emerson, who took fourth and fifth places respectively, Emerson and William Hinton '41 finished well up in the cross country and downhill events, while Peter T. Brooks '38 and Hinton took sixth and eighth places in the slalom.
