10000 DARTMOUTH
MEN BACK ELEVEN
Followers of Green to March in
Force on Stadium for
Harvard Game.

Special Dispatch to THE New York HERALD.
CAMBRIDGE, Oct 27.--At least 10000
Dartmouth football adherents. half of
them former students or present under
graduates. will follow their football team
into the Harvard Stadium tomorrow to
watch the first gridiron battle staged by
the Cambridge and Hanover teams in
ten years. Although beaten last week
by Vermont and none too eager to seize
the short end of the to 2 odds which
are being offered on Harvard tonight.
the New Hampshire men expect to see
an evenly fought game and one in which
Dartmouth has more than passing
chance to win. The team is in first class
shape for the game. while most of Har-
wards regular players are still nursing
minor injuries sustained In their game
with Centre College a week ago.
Even after yesterdays signal drill In
the Stadium Coach Fisher Of the Har-
ward forces was not sure of his starting
lineup or at all certain how long several
of his first string men would be able to
stand up under the strain Of hard
game even If he took a chance of play
ing them at the opening kickoff.
One thing Is certain for Harvard,
though, and this is that Owen, Gehrke
and Buell. all are In the pink Of con-
dition and will make up the big part
of the back field. Coburn has been lost
for several weeks while Chaplin was
hurt in the midweek practice and Is not
sure of starting ahead of Churchill. a
lighter back who is a good offensive man
but not so strong as the other on the
defensive.
The left wing or the rush line will
start in regulation order. with Fits.
Eastman, Grew and Clark from end to
center, but it probably will be close to
game time tomorrow before Fisher de-
cides whether Hubbard or Kuhnhardt
will play right guard, Greenough or
bunker right tackle or whether jenkins
or Holder will be at right end, where
also there is a bare chance that jos
Hartley. first choice for the job will be
able to start.
This week the linesmen have been
coached on their charge and on general
aggressiveness. The team has been
shown what the coaches know of the
running and passing game the Hanover
team has shown in it's early games. but
Fisher and his associates will be very
much surprised If Dartmouth docs not
uncover something entirely different to.
