Dartmouth scored the first touchdown
| five minutes after the game opened.
| Shortly after the kickoff Llewellyn ran
| one of Hills punts back forty yards, due
| partly TO his own speed and clever do1g-
! ing and partly 10 three or four missed
tackles by Cornell men, An exchange OF
punts followed, whereupon Dartmouth,
/ taking the ball on her own 45-yard line,
| launched an attack which Cornell could
not stop until the goal line was crossed.
! Whitney made the final plunge from the
| 1-yard line. The assault was directed
| chiefly at the line. just off tackle, or be-
| tween guard and centre. Englehorn
kicked the goal.
| The second touchdown followed five or
six minutes later A long punt by Morey,
two plays after the kickoff, set the ball
| sailing far down into Cornell territory,
and failing 10 gain by the forward pass
or rushing O'Connor punted and Dart
mouth took the bail on Cornelrs 45-yard
| line. On the first lineup Snow jumped
| drought a broad highway, between end
| and tackle, for twelve yards, and Llewelyn
followed this up by slipping around Cor
| nelrs right end for another twelve yards,
! to be stopped only by Bennett, who, bv
! the way, played a strong game for the
! home team in the secondary line OF de-
fence.
| Whitney was stopped on the next play
but Snow plunged long for three yards
| Whitney for eight. Llewellyn for six. and
again Snow for two, which carried the
ball to Cornelrs one-yard line. Whitney
then crashed over for touchdown, and
| Englehorn kicked the goal after Snow had
caught perfect punt out.
| Hill again kicked off and Llewellyn ran
! the ball back twenty-five yards before
being turned over. Dartmouth then began
another running attack, which carried the
ball to Cornells thirty-yard line, from
which point Barends failed in trial at
goal from placement just as the first
quarter ended
The second period was more evenly
fought. An intercepted forward pass by
Dunbar gave Dartmouth chance 10
score right at the start, but a penalty
and a tightening Of the Cornell defence
led Barends TO try drop kick, which
was partially blocked, so that Guyer re-
covered the ball for Cornell on his own
4O-yard line. Another penalty against
the visitors for holding counted in Cor
nell's favor, but no impression could be
made on the Dartmouth defence, so that
, an exchange Of punts followed. Finally
, ! Ghee, who had gone in at quarter in
place Of Llewellyn, fumbled one of
r O'ConnoT's punts on the 7-yard line and
O'Hearne bounced on the ball in a way
to set the Cornell men shouting.
It looked Ike a sure touchdown, but
. after O'Connor had gained a bare two
yards by plunge through the centre, he
/ tried a forward pass. instead of further
, testing the Dartmouth defence, and the
ball rolled out of bounds behind the goal
, posts. This gave it TO Dartmouth under
/ the rules, and II was quickly punted out
of danger, for the rest Of the period the
, play was largely in the centre of the
field
The third period was a repetition Of the
second, although Dartmouth scored an
, other touchdown and clearly outplayed
, Cornell most Of the time. 1t was In this
quarter however that the Cornell team
made it's wonderful stand inside the
G-yard line. The ball was carried TO
!, within striking distance from Cornells
, S5-yard line. where Whitney inter
/, copied one Of OConnor's forward passes.
, Llewellyn slipped through for a pretty
, run of fourteen yards on the last play
of the series, only to be stopped under
the very shadow of the Cornell goal
post.
Llewellyn. by the way. had returned to
the game which accounted for his pres

next lineup following which Dartmouth
was penalized five yards for starting be-
