Dartmouth 39, Williams 0

Speedy and accurate following of the ball, the work of Daly and Cottrell on the ends, and the punting of Ingersoll gave the Green a decisive victory over Williams on the opponents' grounds on October 22. The largest score of the year was run up on the Purple, 39 to 0 being the final count, but the tally far from showed the respective merits of the teams. Despite the six touchdowns and the goal from the field by Barends, Dartmouth was outclassed in every department of the game except in punting and following the ball. The line of the Green was slow and uncertain in tackling, and it was only the excellent work of the secondary defense that held the hard-fighting, though badly handicapped Williams team. Dartmouth, throughout most of the contest, played a punting game, and in this department the superiority of the Green was evident.

Any element of luck in the contest was decidedly with Dartmouth, for with but one exception, every touchdown was the direct result of blocked or recovered punts, onside kicks, or forward passes, and the first two scores, made in less than three minutes of play, were decidedly dependent upon the element of luck. The first play after the kickoff by Williams was a punt by Ingersoll, which went over Fish's head. Cottrell recovered the ball and ran nearly half the length of the field for a touchdown. Williams' next kickoff was again returned, and the next play, an attempted forward pass, was intercepted by Barends, who ran twenty-five yards for the second score.

Williams gained almost at will through the heavier Green line, and outplayed her opponents at nearly every position on the line except the ends. In the whole contest Williams rushed the ball 175 yards to 140 by Dartmouth, made first downs twelve times to their opponents' eight, and netted 68 yards by forward passes to the Green's eleven. The punting of Ingersoll was a feature of the game. His punts averaged nearly fifteen yards farther than those of his opponent, Stevens, who was handicapped by the bad passes of the Williams center. Captain Ryan was again in the game for the Green.
