T IN EAST
Dartmouth to Try Real
Strength Against
Cornell Saturday.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.--tR-East-
ern gridiron followers today lifted
their gaze upon a pile of defeated
hopes and distorted ratings to the
hills of Hanover, N. H., where two of
the only four unbeaten top flights
elevens will grapple next Saturday.
While Dartmouth of Hanover is en-
tertaining Cornell, Harvard and
Princeton will meet at Princeton in
the seasons first game in the Har-
ward Yale Princeton triangle. There
will be the usual capacity crowd in
spite OF the fact that both teams have
been beaten. Each was hard pressed
Saturday, Harvard against little Will
liam and Mary and Princeton against
Swarthmore.
Although their record OF consecu-
tive victories for the season remains
unbroken to date, Cornell and Dart
mouth, both had narrow escapes Sat
urday.
The Ithacans pushed Columbia all
over the field at the Polo Grounds,
but an intercepted forward pass and
tumble gave the New York team
breaks which compelled Dobies eleven
to fight an uphill battle for victory at
FAvORITES PRESSED.
Dartmouth, with a smashing tri-
umph over Harvard and one Of the
best scoring records of the year, was
pressed Unexpectedly by a battered
and bruised Brown team which pre-
scented lineup of many substitutes.
Blocked kicks gave the big Green elev-
en- its only two touchdowns where crit
les had forecast big score.
No weekend of football in years
produced a more amazing list of up
sets than the last.
The staggering blow struck at the
hitherto unbeaten Army machine by
Yale indicated that Eli must still be
reckoned in the Eastern title chase
although beaten by Pennsylvania.
Army's defeat renewed arguments that
the small margin by which Pennsyl-
vania downed Yale was due to longer
preseason preparation. Red Oranges
scintillations dashed Pennsylvania
hopes for consideration as the out
standing Eastern team. On DOGGY
field the Illinois ice-man earned recog-
milton from Eastern critics as one of
the greatest backs Of all time.
TOUGH ON SERVICES.
Perhaps the Navy finds balm for its
utter rout by Michigan In proof at
New Haven that the Army is not
super-team. Eddie Tryon and unde-
feated Colgate onI, partially redeemed
the massacre for the East by trounc-
ing the Michigan Aggies, 40.
Syracuse was left today as the only
major Eastern eleven with an uncross-
ed goal-line as the result Of YER
dict over Penn State. 10. In spite
Of this reverse, in addition to a pre-
vious defeat from Georgia Tech, Penn
State gave indications that it would
put up a hard fight against Notre
Dame at State College, Pennsylvania,
on Saturday.
Yale-Maryland at New Haven, Sy-
racuse-Ohio Wesleyan at Syracuse,
Wesleyan-W Williams at Middlctown,
Conn; Pittsburgh Washington and
Jefferson at Pittsburgh, and Column
bia-N. Y. u, here, are few Of other
outstanding contests.
Pennsylvania expects to let down
Saturday against Haverford, while
Yale and Army 90 not bargain for
trouble. the Cadets having drawn
Davis Elkins at West Point.
Navy hopes to recover its stride
against West Maryland, Fordham is
primed for Holy Cross at the Polo
Grounds. while Brown and Boston
University will have it out at Provi-
dcnce.
