Coach Spears is taking no chances and

field to complete the year without the

Robertson was one of the best all
around backfield men ever produced by
Dartmouth. and many supporters be-
lieve that he would reach the all Ameri-
can standard this year. Walter Camp
chose him for his third team last year
although he did not finish the season
on account of broken leg sustained in
the game with the University of Penn
sylvania in New York. His absence
was materially felt. and the loss of the
Brown game may well be attributed &c
his injury.
