Dartmouth, TO.
1t was the most spectacular play
ever seen on Grant field, the scene
of much spectacular football. 1t
came after Dartmouth had displayed
an early ability to crush through
Georgia's line. 1t came after Geor-
gia had suddenly braced and had de-
yeIoped a dashing drive of it's own, a

tremendous power straight down the
side line. The trajectory was low
and the direction perfect. Lynch took
the pass with al the ease and grace
of Iris Speaker gathering in a NY
hall and fairly flew to touchdown
