SOCCER
November 1920

In the eyes of many undergraduates soccer as a minor sport gained new importance this fall when in the first game of the season Dartmouth journeyed to Cambridge and overwhelmed Harvard 5-1. The Harvard "Crimson" of that morning stated that it "seemed unlikely that Dartmouth would offer very stiff opposition". Yet the Green eleven, without the services of a professional coach, experienced little difficulty in carrying the ball through the Harvard defense. The next day Dartmouth defeated M.I.T. 2-1. The team this year has the advantage of having the greater part of last year's squad from which to pick. To date Capt. Dale, Fletcher, Tobin, Caswell and Mesquita have been starring. The remaining games of the schedule are Springfield Y.M.C.A. College at Springfield on Oct. 29 and Worcester Academy at Worcester on Oct. 30.
