Coach Clark Hodder's hockey team journeys to Hanover tomorrow to engage a highly favored Dartmouth six in a game which brings the pre-midyear schedule to a close and at the same time marks the opening of Pentagonal League competition.

Only the most optimistic fan would take the Crimson at even money for the facts which point to a Dartmouth victory are many. In the first place the Green has already beaten Harvard once before this season, winning an informal game by a 4 to 3 margin just before vacation. At that time the Hoddermen had three full weeks of skating under their belts, while the Indians were donning skates only for the third time.

Secondly, the Indians have proved that this performance is no flash in the pan. On their arduous Western trip they picked up two rough and tumble wins over a highly regarded Minnesota team, and split two game series with both Illinois and Colorado. At present the Indian record reads seven wins and two setbacks.
