HAMILTON PLAYS RUGBY Robert Hamilton, 1960 graduate of Medford High school and student body pres ident as a senior played on the undefeated Dartmouth college B rugby team this school year. He was the team's fullback. The B crew opposed all the Ivy league schools during the fall and spring term. It played 24 games without a loss. Many of the B team mem bers will move to the A club next year and the ex-Black Tornado trackman may have his sights also on moving up. Dartmouth's A combine trav eled to Ireland this spring for a series of conflicts. Hamilton wrote to his par ents, Mr. and Mrs. Moore Hamilton, that injuries are frequent in the sport and that he had received a cracked ankle and broken nose during the spring season. Rugby is not college-supported at Dartmouth. Players are members of the Rugby club and pay their own way to games. The tussles are sub sidized by alumni and other enthusiasts called the "Friends of Rugby." Graduate students and undergrads play on the teams. Hamilton is a sopho more this season. The sport is becoming rec ognized on the Pacific coast. Stanford has had a rugby team for several years. Uni versity of Oregon and Oregon State university had teams this year.
