Ambrose Out Of 1t.
Preparations for the Princeton game
in the form of signal drill and new for
nations have been started. The coaches
gave the men a blackboard talk on the
errors in play and in judgment Of Sat-
urday's game, after which there was
a twenty-minute dummy scrimmage
against Princeton formations.
Nat Ambrose, it was learned this
afternoon, will probably not be in the
game again this year. He pulled a
tendon in the Williams game, reopening
an old injury. Ambrose Is an excellent
line breaker and place kicker as well.
He is a senior and will not have another

Offense Equal To Tigers.
There is a general feeling among the
students that Dartmouth stands an even
chance against Princeton. The Green's 8
hackers have some reason to believe
that their teams offensive power is
equal, at least, to that OF the Tigers.
Penn is not being forgotten. either.
The coaches realize that Penn has a
team which is developing rapidly and
which will be in trim for Dartmouth on
November 8.
There is no overconfidence this year,
however. The team as a whole is very
light-more like prep school than a
college. The men are fast and deter
mined. but that can hardly make up for
fifteen pounds per man on the rush line
which Princeton will have ON the Green.

Hogsett and Loudon were i'm every

Beer played his best game of the year
