That McCall Threat

From McCall's entry into the Yale game dated the thrills and palpitations which punctuated the rest of the game. From a slow orthodox attack, he split the Yale defense wide open and reduced the Blue eleven to a desperate bunch of fighting men, battling to stave off what seemed to be the winning margin and it is to their eternal credit that they were successful.

Listen to Bill Cunningham: "Wild Bill McCall certainly showed Yale why he got his name after his advent into the game late in the final period. Bill sure did everything wild and had the Blue side of the field wild by the way he came near getting away with it time after time. He wrought havoc with the Yale team with his triple threat and certainly did some fancy work with his running, dodging attack and his forward and lateral passes. No one seemed to know what Mr. McCall was going to do next. Many could not understand why he was held in reserve for so long; probably Cannell kept him to send in when a score was a possibility. To the majority of Dartmouth supporters it appeared that he was kept from running wild just a little too long to make Yale wild."

The last play of the game saw McCall stand on his 25-yard line and take a shot at the cross bar that came so close to being true that the Dartmouth stands started out in a body toward the field.

So the game ended in a scoreless tie, but there were thrills a-plenty. One thing it proved conclusively, and that was that the Dartmouth line was the greatest in the East, for again men such as Andres, Hoffman, Barber, Bromberg and Crehan stayed in the greater part of the contest, and Bromberg and Crehan showed themselves of ailAmerican calibre.

The weakest part of the Dartmouth system was the end situation. Stan Yudicky, Dartmouth's greatest end of this college generation, was injured against Harvard and at this writing appears to have closed his football career for the year. It will be remembered that Yudicky's work against Yale last year showed him at his brilliant best and his loss jumbled up the ends so that any potential starting material was unrecognizable. Time and again the Dartmouth ends missed the safety man on punts and they failed to block and tackle effectively. They were not sure receivers of forwards but the one main hope lay in the fact that a majority of the candidates are sophomores with two more years to go. Forrest Branch was shifted from a center berth to save the situation, and Harold Mackey was nursed carefully along so that he might be available. (30th of these men are sophomores and in the same class are Arthur Connelly and Larry Durgin, and the wing positions of the future will devolve upon this quartet of second-year men.
