GEORGETOWN football players will be

"Breaking Through" Style Is
Opposed to "WalI Defense
in the Jungle.
By HERBERT REED.

Princeton and Dartmouth will furnish
today what should prove one of the
most sensational football games of the
season. So much emphasis has been
placed on the excellence of the Dart
mouth ends and quarterbacks, and the
consequent use of the wide-open game.
that, remembering the prowess of men
like whitney. Curtis, and Snow in the
backfield, one gets the impression that
the Green will buck the line whenever
opportunity offers.
1t has been said, too, that Princeton is
without the services of a kicker Of the
first class. Apparently the Orange and
Black is quite willing to have the foot
ball public imagine that there is no
KICKER at Nassau save "Hobey" Baker.
Latest advices from Tigertown are 10
the effect that Princeton has a good
kicker in reserve. Whether he will be
uncovered against Dartmouth is quite
another matter.
Accepting the Dartmouth forecast of
the game. one gets the idea that the
Green will turn out light. fast team.

In Hogsett at one end and Louden at
the other the HanOverians have an eX-
cellent pair and If the Green is to use
the forward pass to any great extent
these two men should prove excellent
receivers. 1t IL difficult. however. to
escape the conclusion that Dartmouth
will turn loose a high class running
game, using both Whitney and Curtis
off tackle and Snow, If he is in condi-
ton, In sharp punches into the line.
II is doubtful II either Princeton or
Dartmouth will use the direct pass from
center for runs inside the two tackles.

CHANGE IS LIKELY
FOR GAMES TO COME
Business Protest, If Made
Good, May Occasion Shift in
List of Officials.

At least one change is likely in the
personnel of The officials before the
postponed Western-Centrai game OF
Tuesday next. if Business High School
carries through its protest of the game
won by Tech last Tuesday.
Efforts were made yesterday to have
a meeting of the board of faculty ad-
visitors to lay before them the protest of
the contest in the hope that somerhin:,
would be done in the matter of the
officials. The Business authorities
maintain that they will not allow the
Orange and Blue to go in against
Eastern on Friday next with the same
list of officials that worked the first
game.
II il thought that Chairman Mathews,
of Western will call the faculty ad-
TiSors together some time today or to-
morrow. If Business takes the initia-
tive there is nothing to do but 80
through with the protest, and the mat
ter will be laid before the board OF
eGucation if the entered protest is
placed in the right form.
Considerable dissatisfaction was eX-
pressed by the members of both Cen
trail and Western football teams Hes-
terday at their failure to get together.
Western has an old score 10 settle and
Central is eager to prove that this
years Aggregation is just as capable of
delivering licking as that led by
"Murph' King last season.
Football would have been out of the

uuice couple of days of sunshine to

in the same line 1t is reasonable to sup
pose that both teams will shoot at goal
whichever opportunity offers.
1t has been the history of most Dart
has hinged on very little things, and
there can be no doubt that Princeton
has the worst field in the East upon
which to make serious errors. Alert
ness in covering the ball. whether in
the close or open" game, has al
ways been a Tiger characteristic, and
has won more than one big game.
AS the teams will line up, Princeton
will have a considerable advantage in
weight not alone in sheer individual
Princeton's weight is fairly ''close to
the ground" and Dartmouth faces the
same danger as last year-the tendency
to play too high in the line.
It is right in the line that the earliest
advantage will be evident. The Tigers
play what for lack of a better term
might well be called ''walr' defense.
whereas the Dartmouth method is that
of .breaking through" The Dartmouth
idea is to break up the play in its in
ception.
The matter of generalship probably
will play a most important part. The
Hanover men should have learned the
lesson of last years unsatisfactory sea-
son. whereas the Tigers have the ad-
vantage of prestige and the added initial
punch" of playing on their own field.
There is more reason for Dartmouth
making a special effort to win this game
than Princeton in the light of last
years effort, and Cavanaugh. to look
after.
1t has been said of Cavanaugh that he
goes through. his preliminary season
with one style of Offense while rehearS
ing an entirely different style in secret
and in preparation for the first big
game. This maybe the case this year,
but certain it is that these particular
