TIGER Scrubs GIVE
VARSITY ALESSON
Score Three TOuchdOwns to
One Against PrincetOn's
Best Eleven.
EBERsTADT QUARTERBACK

Dartmouth showed their first effects
on the Princeton football squad yes
terday at Princeton. when the Tiger
varsity. playing almost intact ex-
cept for the centre of the line, went
down to defeat for the first time this
year before the alert scrub eleven.
Three touchdowns were scored by
the scrubs to one by the varsity in
fifty minute scrimmage.
In actual playing and ground gain
ing the regulars had very little diff
ficnlty in maintaining their suprem-
acy. No attempt was made to limit
the number of downs allowed during
the varsity advance, and Click, +.
Trenkmann and briggs swept down
the field in good order, mostly on line
plays, until Click scored the first
touchdown on a smash off tackle
that sent him over from the eighteen
yard line.
Brown Makes Long Dash.
The ball was advanced almost inn
mediately into scrub territory again
and reached the ten-yard line on an
end run by briggs, but tho next play
called for was pass, and A. G.
Brown, the speedy scrub halfback,
intercepted it on his own goal line.
With almost no aid he cleared the
whole tangle of players and lodged
along the side line past the last var
sity defense for the hundred yards
and a touchdown.
The next score was made by the
scrubs after the regulars had again
worked the ball to their fifteen-yard
mark. This time Eddy, at end for
the scrubs, pulled down the pass on
whole field for touchdown The last
score was made by Brown, who
pushed over the varsity line after
most of the second string men had
gone in.
The three centre men of the line
e. Trenkmann, Shenk and Gennert
had another easy day, for they had
to bear the brunt OF most of the
Dartmouth attack and were stiffened
considerably, although not injured
Gowan and Swart filled Gennert's
place for the day, with Hogg and
Foster at the guard position
Eberstadt 1T Quarterback.
Eberstadt spent the entire fifty
minutes of scrimmage at quarter and
Ames appeared only in the signal
drill. Dickerman, one of the most
promising backfield men on last
years Freshman eleven, returned TO
the scrimmage for q time today at
half, after being on the list of In
jured since the preseason practices,
when he broke his wrist. He is one of
the best of the Tiger drop kickers and
is solid enough to hit the line hard.
He may find berth on the Varsity
for the games to come.
Eddie" Hart, captain OF the 1911
championship team, and one of the
greatest tackles ever seen at Prince
ton, took the line in hand and put
them through their PAGES. He is pay
ing special attention to making the
tackles and ends work in unison, for
he considers that the key to the line
situation at Princeton.
Ames Has Football Intuition.
1t was no accident that young
Ames directed the play of the Prince
ton team so admirably Saturday. 1t
is true that he is the son of Snake"
Ames, one of Princeton's greatest
players of the last generation, but he
Is a success because he has been
taught football strategy and given
plenty of chance to test his knowledge
and develop his initiative on the grid
iron. 1t Is a part of the new Prince
ton system. Three days week the
Tigers play regular games against the
substitutes, the scrubs or the fresh
men. The varsity quarterback is told
to run the team and the coaches stop
the play just as little as possible.
Yale TO Tackle the Dummy.
The Yale trainers have determined
that Alex Wilson, quarterback of the
Blue, has water on the knees and he
may not get in the game against
Colgate Saturday. Higginbotham is
still suffering from twisted ankle
and will be kept out for another
week. Captain Talbot has an alb
scess on his leg and will not be in
shape to take his place in the lineup
by the end of the week. The Yale
squad is to be given plenty OF work
with the tackling dummy during this
week. The coaches recognize that
the tackling of the blue men was de-
cidedly ragged against Washington
and Jefferson.
