cred a tumble for Dartmouth on the
l7-yard line.
IL looked like an immediate score
for the Hanover team, but Penn held
like a rock, and took the ball on downs
eleven yards from her goal line. After
an exchange Of punts and futile for
ward passes, Chez finally cut loose
with a long expected dash. He went
around left end for twenty-five yards,
putting the ball on Penn's 30-yard line.
Gerrish and Whitney crashed through
for another first down on the 20-yard
line. Two six-yard drives by Whitney
put the ball eight yards from a score,
and Gerrish took the oval to the 5-yard
line, where Penn held for three downs.
On the fourth down Dartmouth was
penalzed fifteen yards for holding. A
desperate twenty-yard forward pass hit
the ground, and it was PENIS ball just
as the whistle ended the first period.
Then it was that Penn had brief
moment Of hope. Her team had held
Dartmouth for fifteen minutes score

tunes of cheer. Il was their last and
only chance.

New England Team Buries
the Quakers by Score
of al to @.
by Telegraph to The rnbun. ]

Philadelphia, Nov. l4.-It will be
hard to convince the $4,000 who saw
Dartmouth run over, through and
around Penn here this afternoon for
final score OF III TO 0 that there is
a better team in the country than the
horde from Hanover Cavanagh used
twenty-seven men. Horde is right
When the first period ended with no
score the more optimistic of the Penn
clan dreamed that the Quakers had
n chance, notwithstanding all the
peril had been PENIS, Dartmouth
twice heaving the ball inside Penn's
10-yard line and never being menaced
herself. The Dartmouth machine
seemed TO be missing on at least two
cylinders Evidently the engine was
cold, but this was defect that soon
righted itself.
Gathering momentum with the
whistle for the second quarter, the
big Green team bowled over the red
and blue jerseys for two touchdowns
in that fifteen minutes, giving an ink
ling Of the irresistible avalanche that
was to bury old Penn under four more
touchdowns in the second half.
Chez Fumbles Badly.
Through all this wonderful attack
Ghee fumbled often and Dartmouth
otherwise lost the ball, but Penn never
had d chance. The Dartmouth defence
was the quintessence Of alertness,
ferce, sharp tsckling and impenetra-
ole solidity between tackles.
Instant diagnosis of Penn's plans
spoiled seventeen out OF twenty-five
Quaker forward passes. The deadly
tackling Of Teller prevented any run
back OF fine punts from the feet OF
Curtis and Whitney.
Dartmouth's stonewall line blocked
every Penn try at straight rushing,
and, in fact, it was only the hive sue
cessful forward passes out OF twenty
two tried that gave Penn three or four
first downs during the entire game.
Dartmouth herself only put through
three forward passes out Of fourteen
attempted, but as two of this trio went
for touchdowns there was little COM
plant. q,
Chez has set such a high standard
for himself as quarterback that this
must be called one Of his of days, al
though he did make broken field runs
of twenty-five, twenty and nfteen
wards. and tossed a beautiful thirty
ward forward pass to Winship, that the
latter carried five yards further for a
touchdown.
But Chez is not Dartmouths only
quarter of class. He was replaced by
tumiskey, whose first play was per-
Feet twenty yard forward pass over
the goal line for a touchdown. Later
Cumiskey scored himself on a twenty
ward dash through the whole Penn
team on delayed pass.
Whitney Plays Brilliantly.
Captain Whitney starred for Dart

New Haven, Nov. l4.-The Yale
freshmen triumDhed by a score of IS

Field this afternoon The game was
brilliantly played and filed with long
runs, smashing line plunges and saw

Captain Enright of Harvard was hurt
at the opening of the second period,
and with his withdrawal there came a
sudden slump in the Crimson on
slaught, which was threatening to over
whelm Yale. Up 70 the time of the in
jury TO the Harvard fullback the
visitors were leading, TO 0, and the
outlook was all in favor Of a Crimson
victory.
Enright was used in almost every
play, alternating crushing attacks
through the line with dashing end
runs. On the second kickoff he re-
ceived the ball on Harvard's 5-yard
line, and flashing back to midheld be

aside six opposing tacklers in his jour

At the opening of the second halt
Harvard was quickly forced to take
the defensive, and Yale went through
for a touchdown in two minutes and a
half. The resistless attack continued
after Harvard's kickoff. and Smith
scored the fourth touchdown after q
series OF line plays and shifting COM
bnations.
The fourth period told the same
story. Harvard was thrown for loss

Defence Ragged in Spots.

Defensively the Tigers also were at
fault against the game which Yale ran
eff so smoothly. They never gave up
fighting, while BALM, Mclean and
Eddie Trenkmann did yeoman service
in the first line and Click in the sec
ond line, but on the whole Yale's attack
could be checked only at times, but not
stopped. Fundamental weaknesses
cropped up too. and for a big game the
tackling was far below the standard.
This last also holds for the Yale men.
Excuse for this on both sides lies prob
ably in the fact that the low, sure
tackling generally accepted as the best
is not available against the wide open,
lateral passing game. A man must 90
high 20 keep his eye on and to smother
the ball, and many & tackle no doubt
was missed for this reason.
Yale gained 1877 yards by straight
rushing for nine first downs to only
nine yards for Princeton and no first
downs in the opening half. Yale also
added a hundred yards in the third pc
Rod for four first downs to practically
nothing for Princeton, but the Tigers
when they did wake up gained l22
wards in the fourth period for nine
FIRST downs, which saved this particular
situation If not the game.
In punting Yale gained many valu-
able lines. lie Gore brought his aver
age down by one bad kick into the line
when fairly deep in his own territory,
Lut otherwise his drives averaged close
to forty-five yards, measuring from the
line of scrimmage. while he placed the
