SNOW SHOOTS WINNING GOAL
Stirring Play Allows Dartmouth
Five to Beat Williams.
TBv reIegraph to The tribune.

Williamstown. Mass. Feb. A.-Dartmouth
defeated Williams by the score OF z to %
here tonight In one of the hardest fought
basketball games OF the season. Snow. Of
Dartmouth, made the winning goal when
the score stood a tie one minute before
time was called.
Dartmouth proved more reliable in shoot
ing baskets and stood the strain OF hard
struggle better than the Purple. Williams
exhibited excellent passing and team work,
leading by the score of "a to 1S at the end
of the first period. Victor and snow had
the highest individual scores.
Tho lipe-up follows.
New-York tribune., 1912-02-25

The Princeton players are slight favorites
for the decisive game. Not only have they
aggregated larger scores than Yale. but
the opposing teams have pronounced them
a harder lot to handle That they will
have the advantage in weight and speed
is quite certain.
Yale has been admirably coached by
Gordy and Church, last years cracks and
has developed into a smooth. well balanced
team, playing with machine-like precision
and ever ready to take advantage of op-
portunities. II will be fine game to
watch, with the issue in doubt to the end.
Princeton will line up Captain Battles,
Wight, Hessenbruck, McLanahan, Bartlett
and Platt; Yale. Captain Harper, Ives, Nc
Leish, Mathiesen. Kindelan and Smith.
Little interest attaches to the Pennsyl-
vania-City College meet The Quakers are
expected to carry off the honors by big
margin. and as Shryock probably will oe
absent to compete in the national relay
championship. there is not even the pros
pect of a new record being created.
The new fancy diving rules just adopted
by the intercollegiate Swimming Associa-
ton, which are a slightly modified form OF
the Amateur Athletic Union code. will get
their first trial at these meets.
