that a strong showing by Michigan early

Cunningham to Start Game.

1t is significant that Cunningham. the
great drop kicker. is going to start the
contest. Princeton probably realizes that
the crisis may come at any time during
the game. when crossing the Dartmouth
line from scoring distance will be impos-
sible, and il will lie a choice between a
field goal and nothing.
Last year Dartmouth won-l0 to g. The
chances favor the men In green today,
especially as the Princeton coaches are
doubtless unwilling to show their hand
on the eve of the final game with Yale.
In Cornell Harvard faces much
stronger opponent than is generally sup
posed. The Williams team, that nearly
tied Harvard by an TO q score. was
last Saturday unable to score Il touch
down on Cornell. and managed 10 defeat
the Ithacans only by a field goal. The
comparison is an interesting one. II gives
Harvard the game but not without a
hard fight. HarvardS offense has been
gradually gaining strength ali season. II
ought to be able to drag itself over Cor
nells line.
OF these four games the Yale Brown
contest will give q basis for comparison
Of Harvard, Penn and Yale Harvard
has defeated Brown, IL TO q. and Penn,
Is To >.
And the Penn-Lafayette game will af-
ford basis OF comparison for Princeton
and Penn.
Thus before nightfat we shall have the
big four where we can size them up
with some degree OF accuracy.
