HANOVER, N. H. Nov. 1.-The thud Of
shoe against the ball. a wild fighting
scramble In the mud and the dusk, then
suddenly q fash and ell Dartmouth
went mad, and as Dartmouth went into
a delirium of exultation sturdy, alert,
blond Youngstown, he whom they call
Swede, took his place In the select circle
of football immortals of the Green.
Fighting with the indomitable cour-
age and berserker rage of his Viking
forefathers as the shadows Of defeat
fast were engulfing the Dartmouth foot
ball team in its struggle with the Col
gate eleven the big guard delivered one
swift stroke and the tide Of battle
turned.
1t was Youngstown who with only one
short minute more to play and the Col
gate team apparently victorious by to
crashed his way through the Maroon
defence, blocked q kick by Webster and
scoopng up the mud caked leather ran
ten yards for a touchdown
And as men. women, boys and girls
went wild Jim Robertson kicked the
goal which gave Dartmouth a tie at
to-.
Memorable Finish.
1t was a scene and a finish which
none OF the onlookers ever will forget
Colgate, with its line unchanged
throughout the terrific contest, was
showing the effects Of the physical strain
Of outhghting and outplaying the Dart
mouth men when DR.. z. ]. O'Brien, the
referee, announced that there were only
FIVE minutes more to go. With defeat
staring them in the face, the Dartmouth
players fought until they could barely
stand up. Crash after crash sent the
Colgate line Keeling back under the i'm
pact.
Flight. fight, fight" Dartmouth
throats yelled and implored across the
field to their standard bearers. and Dart
mouths team fought as only lot of
game men with their backs to the wall
will fight.
Then suddenly the Colgate defenders
struck back. Victory seemed to be
theirs and they were determined that
nothing was to take it from them. Rob-
ertson tried a forward pass to make
distance on the fourth down and the
play was spoiled. It was Colgate's ball
on its own 16 yard mark
Dartmouth seemed destined to be
beaten In spite of all its eleventh hour
efforts. But fate still was to have her
say. Two five yard penalties for off
side placed Colgate in a position In
which 1t was forced to punt and Web
ster went back to his own 10 yard line
TO do the kicking. AS Webster got the
pass from Woodman, Youngstrom dived
into that fighting mass. Right through
centre he went smashing and on to the
ball. Webster hardly had time to get
his toe TO the leather before Young
strom bounced on him like a cat. In
q trice the Swede had blocked the kick.
Bounds Over Goal Line.
La
he was on 1t, gathered II into his arms
and was off for the goal line. with ten
Dartmouth fighters struggling to keep
eleven Colgate men from stopping the
flying Swede.
And they never did stop him. A
couple of tacklers got their hands on
Youngstrom's shirt and couple made
frenzied filings at his legs. But with
1000 persons converting the hitherto
peaceful scene amid the hills of New
Hampshire into bedlam, the Swede
touched the ball down behind the goal
line and six points had been scored for
Dartmouth. Out came Robertson to make
that effort on which hinged a tie or a
defeat by lone point.
