Then There was Temple

But then we recall that after Temple had defeated Brown, which still had considerable numbers of the famed Iron Men in her lineup Lebanon Valley came up from Pennsylvania and duplicated that trimming to the utter amazement of every Brown student and follower in Providence. They had figured that Temple might have had a strong team, but Lebanon Valley put the finishing touches on the Iron Men who had turned completely rusty.

The reaction among the football players is certainly not one of condemnation for the schedule makers, and although none wish to be quoted directly, the Allegheny affair was perfectly legitimate. They point out that Dartmouth, in playing Holy Cross and Columbia on successive Saturdays, will welcome a date with a college such as Lebanon Valley just before the Harvard and Yale contest.

There seems to be a wholly unfounded sentiment that Dartmouth is deliberately picking setups for its schedule, which does not find support by those who know. Football at Dartmouth, and on the East Coast in general, which one thinks of in terms of Harvard, Yale, Princeton and other representative colleges, has not become a big business.
