Loyal Hooters Go to Cambridge
 for Game Today

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 22 'P- Practically the entire student body of Dartmouth college was here to- day to back a Green threat that its followers believed stood an excellent chance Of repeating 1925's riotous defeat of q Crimson eleven.
 Harvard. on the other hand, al- though crippled by loss of four of it's stars and facing the prospect Of a starting lineup that included three men who have never been regulars in d varsity game was confident none the less. The Crimson has been tried and tested by Purdue and Holy Cross while for Dartmouth, today's encounter was the first serious bat tie of it's schedule.
 Crimson coaches have concentrat- ed their past weeks work on prcpa- . ration for partmouth's much , heraldcd forward passing game. Howie Burns was slated 10 open Harvard's game at quarterback but those who have followed the Grim sons tactics this year predicted thai Art French. whose sensational run snatchcd victory from the Green in the last few minutes of play in 1926, would take over a key assignment ! before the game was finished. As last year, Dartmouth ruled 2 sligt favorite but this did not shak.

II is surprising what q few days and matches will do in hand ball league. Last week the Loomis- Cohn. Dresscl-CroWc teams were wearing the crown. Today Mangan and Roche winning nine games straight without q loss, are resting prettily at the top. Grccnsteilr and Levitt is another team that comes in for honorable mention after los ing their three straight matches and roosting at the bottom of the roS- ter only to come back strong in their next three matches to rest in the fifth position.
 The past week the following teams went on the rocks. in two or more matches: Hergstrom-Perakos, WaskowitZ-C -Contaras and StearnS- Strong team. For taking punish cent. the laurcls should be handed to the Waskowitz-COntaras team. Losing nine straight games in their only starts the past week, the team is not through yet, for they Will have to meet 10 more teams. For con- sistcnt play and superior teamwork | the Mangan- Roche combination look at the present moment as the cham 1 piOnship team for l927-2S.
