WHERE THE TIGERS ARE WEAK.
Joe Wentworth. the famous Dart
mouth coach, stated after the game:
"The Tigers are strong on offense but
are not as strong on the defensive.
They simply outplayed the Indians.
The Hwet and slippery field was a
greater disadvantage to,.the Indians
than TO the heavy Tiger team The
I speed of the teams | consider about
the same and the Tiger Interference Is
very good"
"C0ACH EXPLAINS DEFEAT.
Ralph Kinney of Yale, the Indians
coach, stated: "The snow on the
! field made it impossible for my men
to work their trick plays which they
depended upon when playing heavy
teams. We had to depend upon our
strength against the heavy Massilon
line. On a dry, field with our trick
plays and science the score would
have been different"
