NEW YORKERS DEFEATED

Columbia came, saw, and retired under a 21 to 7 defeat. The story of that game may be written around two men who were not press agented previously, and who surprised everyone by their work. The ancient Mr. Reece, who had not carried a football since 1925, made his official bow. In the first three games, Reece was kept in moth balls, as he happens to be Marsters' substitute, and did not have the opportunity to show what he had. The other man was Edmund Sutton, who is the tennis champion of Waterbury during the summer. Three weeks before he was a fourth string end, and then somebody noticed that he could carry a ball, so they made him a fullback. Today Sutton ranks next to Blinker Black, and he did a neat and complete job on Columbia.

A 1 Marsters warmed the bench during the whole game, but he was not there because a better man had been found. Three days previous, he had wrenched his ankle in scrimmage, and the facts were kept so well covered up that it was more or less of a shock when it was announced that hewould not play. He was ready to go in if needed, but the time never came Those four games sized up the Dartmouth team fairly well, and from now on only the tested men will gain recognition. The glaring weakness of the season to date has been the inability of the Green men to boot points after touchdown. If memory is right, something like three goals have been kicked to date, and 23 touchdowns have been scored. The Big Green has not been worrying for they manufacture so many touchdowns that the points really do not count, but with Yale, Brown, Cornell and Northwestern all waiting, one lone point is taking on serious proportions. So far Swarthout, McDonough, Harris, Marsters, Breithut and Sutton have all had their fling. Offside penalties gave Dartmouth the point on several occasions, and once a trick forward pass worked, but for the most part the kicks have been going high, wide and terrible.
