Dartmouth by $50 in a nasty down.

steaming figures carrying on under

! outstanding feature of the afternoon
was 6O-yard run by Brewster Loud
| Yale's new sophomore back. who
has been rising steadily to stardom
during these autumn days. Loud
found a hole in the Dartmouth line
in the second period, charged
through and around the Green
backs. and left all pursuit far behind
in whirlwind dash for Yale's sec
cnd touchdown of the day.

not SO certain to make short gains

however. Eddie Decker started the
game and Hubbard was sent in dur

| tie of substitute backs, with Marsters
| and his fellow Dartmo uth stars also
crippled. SO that things were even
as far as injuries were concerned.
The visitors threw away several
chances by poor handling OF the
slippery ball. A wcefully bad pass
from center ended Dartmouths first
scoring threat, Harris gave Yale its
initial touchdown by fumbling as he
was about to kick from near his own
goal line. and on several other oc-
casions the Indians lost ball or
ground on similar misplays. Yale
played game of alert waiting and
seized its opportunities when these
! breaks came. 1t was Captain Eddy
| who retrieved Harris tumble and
/ made the touchdown, but the other
ltnemen were nearly always through
the Green line and looking for some
thing by which they might profit.
Each team made only one real
march. In the last period Yale took
the ball at midfield and with Swift
doing most of the work on wide end
! runs. brought it to the ten-yard line,

mouth then staged the most thrilling
push OF the game. stamping nearly
three-fourths of the length of the
field on short forwards and runs by
johnson and McDonough, but with
first down on the Yale five-yard
line the attack petered out and the
Blue took the ball on downs.
AS said above. Loud was the star
OF the afternoon and showed that
he can fill Garvey's place with no
loss to the teams strength. He

closing minutes through several long
runs around end and his vicious
tackling. The Yale line was not as
firm as usual, but this may be at
tributed to the difficulty of tackling
slippery, rain-soaked men. The
backs stopped the feeble ghost of

adopted new tactics this week by
making no substitutions until well
into the third quarter.
Brombcrg Prevents Score
Gaylord Brombers. the New Brit
ain lineman playing with Dart
mouth. played only a portion of the.
second quarter, but in that brief in
terval he kept Yale from adding one
point to its score. Yale elected to
run the ball in trying for its sec
ond point after touchdown. but
Bromberg broke through and nailed
the runner in his tracks.
Sherman. another Dartmouth
guard. played in tough luck. He
was injured on the opening kickoff
but finally stayed in. On the kick
off for the second half he was hurt
again and had to be carried from
the field.
McE.wen, Yale end. let himself in
for the worst booing of the season
when he tried several times to
throw a Green player who had been
forced out of bounds. He drew not
only the wrath of the stands but a
15-yard penalty. McEwen has
shown this tendency before, espe-
cially in roughing kickers.
