1948 St. Moritz Winter Games
713 Athletes, 28 Countries, 24 Events

The fifth Winter Olympics were held 12 years after the fourth due to World War II. With their countries still fighting, Germany and Japan were not permitted to compete in the 1948 St. Moritz Games. Still, 15 Ivy Leaguers made the trip to what was also the site of the 1928 Games, 14 as members of the two U.S. Men's Ice Hockey teams. Why two teams? Both the Amateur Athletic Union and Amateur Hockey Association wanted their teams to represent the United States. The dispute was never truly settled, but the Amateur Hockey Association went on to be the team in competition. Members of the Amateur Athletic Union team included: Crawford M. Campbell (Dartmouth ,1946), George S. Pulliam (Dartmouth, 1945), Joseph A. Riley (Dartmouth, 1949), C.R.P. Rodgers (Princeton, 1942), James R. Sloane (Princeton, 1943), and George Donahue (Yale).

The members of the other team, which eventually finished in fourth place, included: Bruce F. Cunliffe (Dartmouth, 1947), Goodwin W. Harding (Harvard, 1943), Bruce E. Mather (Dartmouth, 1947), Fred G. Pearson (Yale), Stanton B. Priddy (Dartmouth, 1943), John P. 'Jack' Riley, Jr. (Dartmouth, 1944), H.T. VanIngen, Jr. (Dartmouth), and Ralph A. Warburton (Dartmouth, 1947). Mather led the team in scoring, netting five goals against Austria in a 91 victory. Riley would go on to coach the gold medalwinning team at the 1960 Squaw Valley Games.

Two from Hanover kept up the Dartmouth skiing tradition at the 1948 Winter Games: Warren H. Chivers (Dartmouth, 1938) and Colin C. Stewart, IV (Dartmouth, 1948).

Dick Button (Harvard, 1952) rounded out the Ivy roster for the 1948 Games. Only a freshman at Harvard, Button still won the gold medal for the United States in the Men's Individual figure skating Event. He would repeat his performance four years later with another gold medal at Oslo and eventually move into a career as a figure skating television commentator, among other things, which continues today.
