DARTMOUTH O — WILLIAMS o

Dartmouth and Williams played a hard-fought game at Hampden Park, Springfield, October 27, neither side being able to score. During the first half, when Captain Glaze had several chances to win his game with goals from placement, Dartmouth had the better of the game. In the second period, however, Williams was the superior, threatening the Green's goal on several occasions. The game was marked by open play and plenty of kicking in the center of the field.

Dartmouth started the game in encouraging style, rushing the ball into Williams territory early in the contest and allowing Captain Glaze his first opportunity to try a goal from the field. Williams punted to the center of the field, and the Green again advanced towards its opponent's goal, Williams taking the ball on downs on its own 6-yard line. Glaze heeled Waters' punt on Williams' 26-yard line and missed an easy trial for goal. From this point Williams'assumed the offensive, rushing the ball into Dartmouth territory and keeping it there most of the time.

In almost all departments of the game Dartmouth did not play in its usual form. The offense was not reliable, while the defense was easily deceived by the shifts and open tactics of the Williams men. Williams, on the other hand, showed unexpected strength, in both attack and defense. Its offense, which showed a commendable grasp of the new rules, was especially effective.

Captain Waters won the toss, and chose the south goal. Glaze kicked off to Williams' 4-yard line, and Chapman returned fifteen yards. C. Brown carried the ball to the 30-yard line, and the Green was penalized for offside play. Waters' forward pass struck the ground and went to Dartmouth on its opponent's 34-yard line. Greenwood hit the line for eight yards. Stuart and Bankart on two successive plunges carried the ball to the 17-yard line. Glaze dropped back for a goal from the field, but the pass was poor and Williams recovered the ball on its own 30yard line. Waters at once punted to Glaze, who reeled off twenty yards before being stopped by Waters, who was hurt in making the tackle. Williams' offside play gave Dartmouth five yards. Bankart hit left tackle for seventeen yards, bringing the ball to Williams' 25-yard line. Greenwood made only a yard, as did Bankart on the following plunge. Glaze dropped back to the 33-yard line for another kick from placement, but the ball went wild.

Waters punted out to Glaze, who returned the ball from his own 45-yard line to Williams' 45. Williams was penalized for offside work. Greenwood advanced the ball three yards, but Glaze's quarterback run lost two. Glaze then punted to Waters, who brought back the ball from his own 10 to the I5yard mark. A forward pass on Dartmouth's left side of the line was good for eight yards. Lament and C. Brown squeezed out five yards between them, and Waters punted to Glaze, who carried the ball five yards to the center of the field. Stuart made two on a line plunge. Prichard carried the ball to the 47-yard line. Glaze tried a short quarterback kick, Lang recovering the ball on Williams' 30-yard line. Greenwood tried the line for seven yards, Bankart advanced to the 18-yard line. Hobbs was brought back from the line and smashed through the Williams left tackle to the 8-yard line. Greenwood was put through the line twice, landing the ball on the 6-yard line, and there Dartmouth was held for downs. Waters punted and Glaze made a fair catch on the 26-yard line and missed the goal by a scanty yard.

Waters punted out to the middle of the field, and a fumbled forward pass immediately gave Williams the ball. Waters punted to Dartmouth's 30-yard line, the ball striking the ground and being captured by Elder. Waters gained fifteen yards on a quarterback kick, and Westbrooke travelled six through the line. Two plunges carried the ball to the Green's 5-yard mark. Then Dartmouth's defence stiffened and held Williams for downs on the 4-yard line. Glaze punted forty-eight yards to C. Brown, who signalled for a fair catch on Dartmouth's 40-yard line. Stuart caught the kick his 5-yard line, and dodged through the Williams team for thirty-six yards. Stuart gained four yards more, when the half ended.

Waters began the second half by kicking off to Glaze on the latter's 20-yard line. Stuart made three through the line and Glaze punted to the center of the field. C. Brown advanced to Dartmouth's 45-yard line around Kennedy, and Peabody followed with two more yards. Waters on a quarterback kick was downed on the 35-yard line. Hobbs threw Waters for a 10-yard loss, and on a quarterback kick Bankart gained possession of the ball on his own 33-yard line. Greenwood made four yards, but on an attempted forward pass the ball again went to Williams on Dartmouth's 35-yard line. Williams was unsuccessful in rushing the ball, Lang tackling Lament for a 5-yard loss and Bankart downing C. Brown for a loss of two. An exchange of punts followed with the result that the ball was in Williams' possession on Dartmouth's 50-yard line. A short gain around the end and a gift of fifteen yards from Dartmouth as the result of piling on the man with the ball placed Williams on the 28-yard line. A couple of plunges netted seven yards, but Peabody lost six in the next two plays. Waters kicked from formation, the ball rolling over the Dartmouth line for a touchback, in Brusse's possession.

Glaze punted out from his 15-yard line to Williams' 50-yard line. Lament advanced the ball to Dartmouth's 40-yard line and C. Brown took it three yards further. Waters advanced the ball to Dartmouth's 28-yard line. Peabody went three yards through the center. Waters tried a short kick and the ball was caught by Glaze on Dartmouth's 12-yard line. On a double pass of Glaze to Prichard the ball was advanced to Dartmouth's 23-yard line. Bankart took it two yards on a plunge through left tackle. Kennedy was thrown for the loss of a yard. Glaze punted to Williams' 50-yard line, where C. Brown was pushed outside with the ball near the center of the field. Pevear replaced McDonald. Waters tried a forward pass, but Brusse broke through and tackled the Williams captain for a loss of fifteen yards. Waters punted from his own 40-yard line to Glaze on Dartmouth's 42-yard line. After Greenwood had gained four yards, a poor forward pass gave the ball to Williams.

Pierce, who had replaced Waters at quarter, failed to gain on a quarterback run. Waters, now at fullback, dropped back to punt, but Pevear broke through, blocked the kick, and pursued the ball along the ground, until Pierce fell on it on Dartmouth's 25-yard line. Captain Waters' try for a place kick was feeble, and Stuart caught the ball on his 12-yard mark and ran it in thirty-two yards before he was tackled by Waters. Stuart gained four yards on a cross buck. Time was then .called with the ball in Dartmouth's possession on its own 47-yard line.

PRINCETON 42—DARTMOUTH O

Princeton won an overwhelming victory over Dartmouth at Princeton, November 3, defeating the Green by a score of 42 to 0. Playing in form that would doubtless have beaten any eleven in the country, Princeton outclassed Dartmouth in every respect. Princeton's play was a spectacular exhibition of the new rules, a series of whirlwind plays that the inexperienced Dartmouth team was unable to stop.

From the time Dillon ran forty-five yards for the first touchdown, to Tibbot's eighty-five-yard dash for the final score at the end of the game, the game was a procession of long runs by the Princeton backs. Dartmouth's defensive work in the line was on the whole good, and necessitated frequent punts. When Princeton essayed the open game, however, it was highly successful,—forward passes, onside kicks, and end runs resulting in great gains for the Orange and Black. Dartmouth's offense was weak. The inexperienced eleven had a bad case of stage fright, a fact that was partly responsible for the result. Dartmouth's line plays were never good for more than a yard or two at a time, and the few forward passes and end runs tried were unproductive. The longest gain was a thirty-yard dash on a combined fake kick and forward pass.

Captain Glaze played a desperate game for Dartmouth, handling the many punts well and tackling hard. In many cases he was the last man between the man with the ball and a touchdown. For Princeton, E. Dillon, Harlan, Rulon-Miller, and Wister played sensational football.

Dartmouth won the toss, and chose the north goal. Prichard received Harlan's kickoff on Dartmouth's 25-yard line. Stuart and Hobbs were both thrown for losses, and Glaze punted to Dillon on Dartmouth's 45-yard line. The Tiger quarterback dodged back through the entire Dartmouth team and scored the first touchdown. Cooney kicked the goal. Score—Princeton 6, Dartmouth 0.

Rulon-Miller returned Glaze's kickoff twenty yards, and on a fake kick circled left end for a gain of thirty-five yards. Princeton was twice penalized for holding, Stuart threw Rulon-Miller for a loss of five yards, and Harlan punted to Dartmouth's 35-yard line. Greenwood went five yards, but Stuart failed to gain. Dartmouth was penalized for holding, and Glaze punted to Dillon. Harlan and McCormick made first down, and Rulon-Miller added six yards more. After being penalized for holding, Princeton punted to Dartmouth's I5yard line. Glaze punted out of bounds at his 35-yard line.

E. Dillon executed a neat forward pass to Wister, who scored a a touchdown, Cooney kicking the goal. Score— Princeton I2, Dartmouth 0.

On Harlan's kickoff, Stannard tackled Stuart on Dartmouth's 25-yard line. Princeton recovered the ball on a fumble, but soon lost it on a forward pass to Dartmouth on the Green's 25-yard line.

Greenwood gained three yards and Hobbs two. Dartmouth was given five yards and first down on Princeton's offside. The Green was unable to gain in two tries, and on Glaze's punt Dillon ran the ball to Princeton's 45-yard line, where he was downed by McDonald. Princeton was forced to punt, the ball going to Glaze on the 20-yard line. On a crisscross Stearns gained eight yards. Hobbs was injured, but resumed his place in the game. Dartmouth punted, Stearns and Stuart tackling Dillon on Dartmouth's 50-yard line. Kennedy replaced Hobbs. On a kick from forma- tion by Harlan the ball was fumbled and crossed the goal line, where Herring fell on it for Princeton's third touchdown. Cooney kicked the goal. Score —Princeton 18, Dartmouth 0. The half ended with the ball in the Tigers' possession on their 35-yard line.

Dartmouth opened the second half by kicking off to Princeton's 15-yard line where Pevear downed E. Dillon. Harlan at once punted to the middle of the field. Bankart made three yards on a cross buck, Kennedy went two yards on a delayed pass, and Glaze punted to Princeton's 10-yard line, E. Dillon running in the ball thirty-five yards.

The Orange and Black was forced to kick, Glaze bringing the punt in to Dartmouth's 3 5-yard line. Kennedy tore through center for two yards and Bankart made three around the end. Dartmouth was penalized five yards for offside. On Glaze's punt to Princeton's 40-yard line, Harlan was tackled by Greenwood. Harlan punted to Dartmouth's 10-yard line. Glaze fumbled, Wister picking up the ball and crossing the goal line. Cooney kicked the goal. Score — Princeton 24, Dartmouth 0.

E. Dillon caught the next kickoff back of the goal line and ran it in to Princeton's 15-yard line. Tibbot made eight yards around the end. McCormick punted to his own 50-yard line, Princeton recovering on Kennedy's fumble. Stearns tackled Tibbot for a loss of five yards. An exchange of punts followed, Princeton recovering the ball in raidfield. Tibbot in two end runs gained forty yards, in both cases being finally tackled by Glaze. Rulon-Miller made ten yards for a touchdown through Dartmouth's left wing. Cooney kicked the goal. Score—Princeton 30, Dartmouth 0.

Rulon-Miller's kickoff crossed Dartmouth's goal line. Glaze kicked to Dartmouth's 45-yard line and Princeton was penalized for holding. A forward pass to Hoagland netted ten yards. On McCormick's fumble, near the goal line, McDonald fell on the ball for Dartmouth. Driver, replacing Bankart, made three yards. Dartmouth was forced to kick. On straight football, the Tigers rushed the ball forty-three yards, - McCormick making the touchdown. Cooney kicked the goal. Score — Princeton 36, Dartmouth o.

Glaze on the kickoff sent the ball over the Princeton goal line, and Harlan punted out from the * 20-yard mark. Glaze failed to gain on a quarterback run, and tried a quarterback kick, Princeton fumbling and Driver falling on the ball. Dartmouth was penalized fifteen yards for holding, and some splendid offensive work scarcely made up the loss. Glaze punted to Dillon, who returned the ball to his 25-yard line. Fresh Tigers poured in from the sidelines, and aided by splendid interference Tibbot dashed around left end on an eighty-five-yard run for the final touchdown of the game. Cooney kicked his seventh goal. Score—Princeton 42, Dartmouth.

The Princeton kickoff went to Driver, who was nailed in his tracks. From a punt formation, a forward pass to Stuart gained thirty yards. Kennedy tore off eight yards more on another forward pass. Glaze was downed for a threeyard loss. With Kennedy back, Greenwood made five yards for first down. The Tigers rallied and Dartmouth was forced to kick. Princeton was given fifteen yards for interference with the catch, when time was called. The summary:

DARTMOUTH 4—AMHERST O

In one of the most spectacular games ever seen on the Alumni Oval, Dartmouth defeated Amherst, November I0, by a score of 4to o. After Amherst had succeeded in staving off the advances of the Dartmouth eleven in its territory for the fourth time, and Hubbard had kicked to the center of the field, the Green came back with a typical Dartmouth finish, tearing through to the 23yard line, and allowing Captain Glaze to drop back in the last moments of play and pull the game out of the fire with a goal from placement. Three thousand persons witnessed the game.

Amherst assumed the offensive at the start of the game, and during the first part of the opening period had much the better of the contest. Several times the visiting eleven marched well into Dartmouth territory, while the vain attempts of the light Dartmouth backs to buck the line made the outlook dubious from the Green's viewpoint. Dartmouth continued to grow in strength, however, and just before the half ended, made a brilliant advance towards the Amherst goal line, the ball being in Dartmouth's possession on Amherst's 12-yard line, when time was called. In the second period Dartmouth played superior football on both the defence and offence. Hubbard's attempts to gain around the ends were smothered, while the Dartmouth backs made consistent advances into the visitors' territory.. The superb defensive play of the Amherst captain alone prevented Dartmouth from scoring at least one touchdown. Four times in the second half Dartmouth seriously threatened Amherst's goal, and just before the end of the game Captain Glaze dropped back to the 3 3-yard line and booted the ball between the posts for the winning points.

Dartmouth played a game far in advance of any previous performance during the season. On the offence, the Green played a hard, smashing game, and although the attack lacked finish, it was usually effective. Early in the game Dartmouth started to buck Amherst's line, but the light backs were unable to do much, Captain Glaze then wisely changed his tactics, and the open game with end runs and forward passes was productive of consistent gains, Dartmouth gained over twice as much ground as the Massachusetts eleven, but in the face of Amherst's stubborn resistance when its goal line was threatened was unable to score a touchdown. In the first half, Dartmouth rushed the ball 120 yards to Amherst's 67; in the second period, I59 to Amherst's 29; total yards gained: Dartmouth 279, Amherst 96.

Stuart played a brilliant game for Dartmouth, his offensive tactics being sensational in the extreme. Of the 279 yards gained by' the Green, Stuart carried the ball I90. Driver also did star work, and Captain Glaze played his usual steady, consistent game. For Amherst, Hubbard was practically the whole team. In the first half, his end runs continually threatened Dartmouth's goal, but after Coach Folsom had talked to his ends between the halves, the efforts of the Amherst captain were smothered in their incipiency. Hubbard's defensive work, however, was always superb, and to him was due the small score of the contest.

Captain Glaze won the toss and chose the south, goal.

Amherst kicked off to Hobbs, who advanced from the 5-yard line to the 26. On a forward pass Prichard made fifteen yards. Stuart went to the middle of the field. On a fumble Glaze regained the ball with a loss of ten yards, and on the next play Stuart dropped the ball for seven yards loss. Prichard was tackled for a loss of six yards and Glaze punted to Amherst's 50-yard line. Wiggin went two and Hubbard twelve. Another end run by the Amherst captain carried the ball to Dartmouth's 25-yard line, ' Pevear and Glaze making the tackle. On a trv for a field e-oal Hobbs threw Hubbard back six yards. Hubbard was apparently to try again from the 36-yard line, but instead made a clever forward pass to Crook, who was downed on the 15-yard line. A drop kick went low, Glaze recovering on his own 8-yard line. From his own goalline Glaze punted to the middle of the field. Back and forth the ball went, neither side being able to gain consistently. Six times the sphere was booted. Dartmouth receiving the last of the series on her own 32-yard line. Greenwood went through the line for two yards and Driver swept around Keating for fifteen yards. Greenwood made six yards, bringing the ball to the middle of the field. Stuart took the other end on the next play, and twisted down the field for thirty-five yards. Hobbs was brought five yards back and went to Amherst's 12-yard line, where time was called. Dartmouth 0, Amherst 0.

Glaze kicked off to Hubbard, who ran in thirty yards to the 35-yard line. His next two attacks netted him a loss of two yards. On an onside kick Amherst recovered the ball in the center of the field. A - quarterback trick play lost two, and Atwood went through the line for four. Hubbard punted to Glaze on his 25-yard line and Amherst was penalized fifteen for interference with a fair catch. Greenwood made five yards, and Driver lost a yard. Glaze's punt went to Hubbard on the Amherst 30yard line. Stuart threw Wiggins for a loss of five yards, and Hubbard punted to Dartmouth's 25-yard line, Glaze advancing twenty yards. Steady plunges and skin-tackle plays carried the ball to Amherst's 3-yard line, where Dartmouth was held for downs. On a trick play Hubbard went thirty yards. As he was about to be tackled by Glaze he dropped the ball, Lang falling on it on his 50-yard line.

Stuart took the ball to the middle of the field on a couple of plunges. Leadbetter was removed from the game for abusive language. Greenwood made three and Stuart went eleven around the end. Glaze tried for a goal from the 43yard line, but the kick was not strong enough.

Hubbard punted out from his 20 to Dartmouth's 45-yard line. Prichard went five and Stuart seven. On the next play Stuart cleared Crook for thirty-two yards. Glaze made another try for a field goal from the 24-yard line, but again failed.

Hubbar punted to Lang, and on a fumbled forward pass the ball went to Amherst on her 50-yard line, Amherst punted, Glaze going to his own 32-yard line. Stuart contributed eighteen yards and then three. Glaze punted to Hubbard who fumbled, Dartmouth recovering on her 22-yard line. On a try for goal from the 33-yard line Glaze put the ball squarely between the posts. ScoreDartmouth 4, Amherst 0.

The game ended with the ball in Dartmouth's possession on Amherst's 26-yard line. The summary:

HARVARD 22—DARTMOUTH 9

Before a crowd of 20,000 people, Harvard defeated Dartmouth in the Stadium at Cambridge, November I7, by a score of 22 to 9. Without its captain and with only three men in the lineup who had played against Harvard the previous year, Dartmouth lost its first game to the Crimson in four years. Outplayed and outclassed by the finished football of the Harvard eleven in the first half, the Green came back in whirlwind style in the second period, surpassed its opponents in almost every respect, and left the Stadium with Dartmouth's reputation for football prowess 'and resourcefulness almost as strong as after any of the memorable games of the past four years. From the Dartmouth standpoint, the game, although a defeat, was doubtless the most satisfactory of the season.

With the game scarcely ten minutes old and Dartmouth holding its own in excellent fashion, Newhall's onside kick was recovered by Harvard on Dartmouth's 35-yard line, and the Crimson started for its first score of the game, Newhall kicking a goal from the field from the 20-yard line. Harvard's first touchdown shortly followed, when Orr received a forward pass and ran forty yards. Dartmouth then scored on a forward pass to Lang and McDevitt's clever goal from placement. Shortly before the close of the period Newhall punted over McDevitt's head, and Orr gathered up the ball on the 5-yard line and crossed the goal for a touchdown. Harvard opened the second half with a continuance of its excellent work, earning its touchdown by straight lineplunging. Growing stronger, Dartmouth began to show its power, and aided by open play and the most effective forward pass seen on Soldiers Field during the year, marched down the field for a touchdown. With line plays, end runs, and forward passes mingled with surprising effectiveness, Dartmouth continued its brilliant advances, and with a touchdown imminent, time was called with the ball in Dartmouth's possession on Harvard's 8-yard line.

On the part of both elevens the contest was a brilliant exhibition of the new rules. Both teams showed a firm grasp of the revised code. Open work led up to all but one of Harvard's scores, while Dartmouth, in marked contrast to earlier performances, played the new game in dashing style. Dartmouth's fake punts followed by forward passes were highly successful, and the fake place-kick that led to the touchdown was executed in artistic fashion and was a big surprise to the spectators and Harvard players.

In the first period Harvard had slightly the better of the rushing game, advancing the ball I23 yards to 92 by Dartmouth, including gains on forward passes. In the second half, however, Dartmouth was clearly superior, rushing the oval I53 yards to Harvard's 4I. The total of yards gained was, then: Dartmouth 245, Harvard I64.

Quarterback McDevitt, in the difficult position of taking Captain Glaze's place in the most important game of the year, played an exceptional game. Weak on the defensive, McDevitt more than made up this deficiency with his brilliant and heady running of the team and star individual work. In addition to kicking a goal from the field, he executed numerous forward passes in a finished manner, while his generalship could scarcely have been improved upon.

Dartmouth won the toss, and chose to defend the south goal. Stuart received Parker's kickoff on his 3-yard line and rushed the ball back twelve yards. McDevitt punted on the second down, the ball going out of bounds at the 50-yard line and being awarded to Harvard. Four plays advanced the oval to Dartmouth's 34-yard' line, where an illegal forward pass gave the ball to the New Hampshire eleven. Two short rushes returned the ball to the 40-yard line, where McDevitt kicked again. Gilder fumbled the punt, but Newhall recove red it, running out of bounds on the Crimson's 26-yard line. The punt was returned after two rushes had gained nine yards, and McDevitt made a fair catch on Dartmouth's 41-yard line. The ball, however, was put into scrimmage, and two bucks at the Crimson line netted only a single yard. Again McDevitt punted, and the Harvard quarterback caught the ball and was downed on Harvard's 38-yard line. Harvard had gained thirteen yards on the exchange of kicks. Two line smashes failed to gain for Harvard, and Newhall kicked again. This time, however, it was an outside kick, and was recovered by Osborne on Dartmouth's 34-yard line, for a gain of twenty-eight yards. By straight football Harvard made first down twice and had the ball on Dartmouth's 9-yard line. Wendell and Lincoln each made two yards, and then Wendell was swept over the line. The touchdown was not allowed, however, because Lincoln had started to run before, the ball was passed, so the Crimson was set back to the 10-yard line with third down. Newhall dropped back to the 18-yard line and booted the ball over the bar for Harvard's first score. Score—Harvard 4, Dartmouth 0:

Lincoln secured the ball on the kickoff, catching it on the 5-yard line and returning it almost to the middle of the field on a pretty dash along the side line. Harvard was soon forced to punt, McDevitt making a fair catch on his 25yard line. Stuart dashed around right end for six yards, but the Green was soon penalized fifteen yards for holding. Harvard, too, was penalized five yards for offside play, and after one more play McDevitt punted to Orr in midfield. On the first lineup Harvard executed one of the most sensational plays of the game, Newhall making a long forward pass to Orr, who dashed down the field, dodged McDevitt, and planted the ball behind the posts for the first touchdown of the game. Osborne kicked the goal. Score—Harvard 10, Dartmouth 0.

Dartmouth's first score followed close upon the kickoff. Securing the ball on its 10-yard line, Harvard was unable to gain, and Newhall punted to Harvard's 35-yard line. Stuart lost a yard, but Driver gained two. On the next play McDevitt dropped back for a punt, then passed the ball over the heads of the Harvard plaiyers to Lang, who was downed on the Crimson's 7-yard line. A delayed pass resulted in no gain, and Kersberg broke through and smothered Stuart's attempted end run. McDevitt then dropped back, and at a difficult angle booted the ball between the posts for the Green's first points. Score- Harvard I0, Dartmouth 4.

Parker kicked the ball over the Dartmouth goal on the next kickoff, and McDevitt kicked out from the 25-yard line. On straight football Harvard rushed the ball from Dartmouth's 50yard line to the 34-yard line, where Greenwood recovered the ball by interc epting a forward pass. Six plays advanced the ball to the center of the field, where Wendell duplicated Greenwood's trick by securing the ball on a forward pass. A short punt by Newhall resulted in a five-*yard gain, and a second one a moment later went over McDevitt's head, Orr picking it up on Dartmouth's 5-yard line and planting it behind the posts. Osborne kicked the goal. Score—Harvard 16, Dartmouth 4.

Dartmouth kicked off, but after Harvard had made two rushes the half ended with the . ball on Dartmouth's 25-yard line in Harvard's possession.

The first score was made in the second half by Harvard, but not until quite awhile after the first kickoff and after the ball had seesawed up and down the center of the field for almost fifteen minutes. Wendell ran the kickoff back to the 25-yard line, and after a couple of rushes Newhall punted the ball to Greenwood, who was downed on Dartmouth's 47-yard line. On the first play Dartmouth was penalized fifteen yards for holding, and the second attempt to gain was fruitless. Then McDevitt sent a forward pass to Prichard and the ball was downed on the 45-yard line. A punt gave the pigskin to Harvard on the Crimson's 36-yard line, and a fumble in the first scrimmage by Gilder returned it to Dartmouth on Harvard's 39-yard line. From there the ball advanced fifteen yards, and McDevitt dropped back of the line to try for a goal from placement. .The kick was accurate but weak, the ball just skimming under the bar.

Newhall punted out to Lang, who made a clever run back from Dartmouth's 35-yard line to Harvard's 43yard line, a distance of thirty-two yards. Greenwood failed to gain through center and a forward pass by McDevitt sent the ball to Newhall on Harvard's 33-yard line. After Harvard had advanced the ball six yards it was punted to Dartmouth's 41-yard line. Stuart made nine yards on a strong tandem buck, but on the next play Dartmouth was penalized for holding. McDevitt tried a forward pass, but Bird of Harvard secured the ball on Dartmouth's 35-yard line. Newhall punted to McDevitt on the 6-yard line, and McDevitt punted to Dartmouth's 35-yard line. A forward pass took the ball to the 16-yard line, whence Wendell on five line plunges carried the oval over the goal line. Osborne again kicked the goal. Score - Harvard 22, Dartmouth 4.

From this point Dartmouth easily had the better of the contest. Dartmouth received the kickoff on its 7-yard line, and then began a brilliant march straight up the field to within striking distance of the goal. On Harvard's 31-yard line McDevitt tried a goal from placement, the ball going over the line. McDevitt caught the kick-out on his 42-yard line and returned it five yards. On straight line plunges Heneage and Hathaway advanced the ball to Harvard's 26-yard line, and a forward pass netted eight yards more. Hathaway carried the ball twice for an advance of five yards, and McDevitt dropped back, apparently for a try from placement. Instead of kicking the ball, however, he passed it forward to Lang, who caught the ball on the 3-yard line, and crossed the goal line for a touchdown. McDevitt missed a difficult goal. Score - Harvard 22, Dartmouth 9.

During the remaining few minutes Dartmouth continued to have matters for the most part all its own way. Lang ran back Osborne's kickoff to the 52yard line and all the team was with him in splendid style. He went right through the Harvard team for a distance of forty-eight yards-. Then, Hathaway ripped up the Harvard center for thirteen yards in two plays and in his third buck put the ball on the Crimson's 29-yard line. McDevitt fell back for a fake kick and on a forward pass to Prichard sent the ball to the 17-yard line. Hathaway made"a yard through center, but Steward failed to add any more when he tried a left tackle crossbuck. Then a goal from placement was narrowly averted by Harvard, whose center men broke through the line and blocked Steward's attempt.

BROWN 23 —DARTMOUTH O

Dartmouth lost to Brown for the first time in six years, November 24, at Hampden Park, Springfield, by a score of 23 to o. Weakened by the absence of Hobbs, and lacking the steadying influence of Captain Glaze, Dartmouth lost its grip after Brown's first scores. The brilliant attack of the Brown eleven, coupled with a large amount of luck and the ability to take advantage of Dartmouth's numerous mistakes in the backfield, was largely responsible for Brown's victory.

Until the first half was almost over the battle was even, with Dartmouth's defence seeming capable of holding Brown and with hopes of victory as bright as those of the Providence men. With five minutes more to play, Mayhew on a side-line dash raced forty yards around right end for a touchdown. Even then Dartmouth was not dispirited, beginning the second period with a flash of excellent play. Then Schwartz punted from his 30-yard line to Dartmouth's 35. where Elrod secured the ball on McDevitt's disastrous fumble. From this point Dartmouth weakened, and Brown made big gains in tearing through for a touchdown. After holding Brown for downs on the 8-yard line, McDonald scored the third touchdown after catching McDevitt's poor punt on Dartmouth's I5-yard line.

The final score of the Providence eleven was made on another dash by Mayhew, who ran fifty yards for a touchdown.

Brown's attack was powerful and well directed. During the first half Brown's offense was not able to make consecutive advances, but after the misplay at the beginning of the second period had disorganized the Dartmouth eleven the Providence men were able to smash through Dartmouth's line for effective gains.

Mayhew, the Brown halfback, was easily the star of the day. His forty yard dash for the first touchdown was the blow that began the work of upsetting the Dartmouth team, and he concluded the scoring With another brilliant run for fifty yards and a touchdown. In many respects this year's game was a counterpart of last year's Brown games, with Mayhew as the Ralph Glaze and the fortunes of battle reversed.

Dartmouth's offense was a disappointment, In marked contrast with the work of the team the previous week at .Cambridge, Dartmouth could not make consecutive advances. The Green could not get its forward passes started, its end runs were smothered, and its line plays yielded only small gains.

The only part of the new game that worked successfully was the onside kick, which was used successfully several times in the first half.

Brown won the toss and chose the north goal. Schwartz received Pevear's kickoff on Brown's xo-yard line, and returned the ball eight yards. Curtis made five yards on a fake kick, and Schwartz punted to Dartmouth's 31-yard line. Greenwood and Stuart gaining only two yards, McDevitt kicked to Brown's 35-yard line.

Driver was sent into the Providence line without gain. McDevitt punted outside at Brown's 36-yard mark.

A trick play with Prichard carrying the ball failed to gain anything. McDevitt punted to the center of the field. Hazard hit the center of the line for two yards and Curtis made three more.

On Pevear's kickoff Dartmouth was offside. On the second try Pevear booted the ball from his 50-yard line to Mayhew on Brown's 5-yard line, Mayhew advancing it to his 26-yard line. Greenwood was hurt and play was stopped for two minutes. Mayhew tried the right end of the Dartmouth line defense, but was tackled for a three-yard loss. A delayed pass was next tried between Schwartz and Mayhew, the latter moving up the field eighteen yards before Driver stopped him. McDonald hit the center for five yards, Curtis bucked the center for eight yards, Curtis again plowed into the line for five yards, and McDonald was pushed and pulled through Pevear for ten yards. Schwartz made another try at the forward pass on his own 40-yard line, but the ball touched the ground before a Brown man could reach it, and it was Dartmouth's ball. Greenwood and Driver made a yard apiece on line plunges. The whistle then announced the end of the half.

McDonald opened the second half by kicking off to Hathaway, who recovered fifteen yards. Stuart made a yard, and McDevitt kicked to Schwartz, who ran in the ball to Brown's 40-yard line.
