TO DOWN VERMONT
Hanover Eleven is Played to StandStill,
Showing Greatest Weakness
in Defence.

Hanover, y. IT., Oct. s.--The brilliant
coloring which nal been made ready for
the future Of their team BY Dartmouth's
undergraduates received a big black
smudee Yesterday when the university
Of Vermont team clearly outplayei the
green team and, although unable to
score, threatened their opponents goal
line. Vermont had not played u game
this year but Dartmouth was confident
Of winning easily.
Vermont, however, started with big
gains on end runs, and had they been
able to pull off the forward pass the
result wenld have been different, Both
teams used the forward pass repeatedly,
since only small gains we're tailed on
line PLAYS. Daftmouth's line was wo-
fully weak and the baekfeld failed to
present any defence for the runner,
From frst to last the ball was in Dart
mouths territory, and only fumblcs at
critical stages saved the green from a
defeat
Capt. Watkins and Smith played a
strong gene Twice Vermont reached
Dartmoutit's 20-yard line, but each time
lost the bali on errors.
