HAS WORK
CUT OUT

mouths winning SCreaK III Lle
New Haven bowl this weekend.
The magnificent game played by
the Ellis with the powerful Army
outfit gives them an edge on
their Green rivals. The Bulldogs
should win by at least a touch
down.
Yale has just found itself
The loss to Georgia has worn of
completely. Coach Nal Stevens
has improved his Blue pupils IN
q most extraordinary way during
the past week.
It is going to take a team OF
genuine championship caliber to
outscore the Bulldogs in their
present form. They clicked Tor
the first time in the Army game.
They are sure to improve Satur-
day. -,
Dartmouth has always en-
countered an unsurmountaple
barrier in Yale and triumph IN
the New Haven bowl.
The Green seat Of learning
has brought many a wel-coaeheo
team to New Haven. only TO pe
turned down at the last moment
by some freak Of the game.
jackson Cannell has worked
hard to erase from the mind OF
his players they are being looked
upon as crusaders by their Green
supporters. Everyone at Hanover
is looking forward with plenty OF
confidence in having the present
Dartmouth outfit change the OLD
order of things. They look for a
Green victory.
Yale has been handicapped by
a late start. The rule in vogue
at Yale, Harvard and Prince
ton is a grave handicap to the
gridiron representatives OF these
great schools of learning. The
trio give each rival at least two
weeks start in football training.
This disadvantage is what
has brought about the defeat
of all three in their carly
games. With an even start,
Yale and Harvard might
have kept their football states
clean Of defeats.
Yale has been coming with a
mighty rush during the past
couple Of weeks. The 40 score
over Brown gave the general
football public some indication OF
what was to come. The Ellis
fought one of the strongest foot
ball units of the country to a
standstill last Saturday.
Major Ralph SaSse's soldiers
must be rated with Notre Dame,
Fordham and the other great
leaders of the present game
Many gridiron critics are of the
opinion that the West Pointers
are likely to give Knute Rockne's
Irishmen their hardest game of
the year out at Soldiers Field on
November %. To play such a
.pwerful outfit a tie game boosts
the stock of the Ellis to new high
levels.
The history of football has had
many interesting traditions eS
tablished on Yale Field. Not Sc
many years ago the Ellis were sls
preme in the gridiron game. Fol
almost a generation the Bulldogs
were the recognized leaders OF
sport.
The tradition established by
these winning squads is what
makes it so difficult for a rival
to win battle in the Blue bowl
This has been the jinx which has
pursued Dartmouth in all its
games at New Haven.
This mental hazard is going
to play an important role in.
the outcome of the battle this
weekend.
Yale showed real scoring
strength against the Soldiers
While only one touchdown was
chalked up to the Ellis, it was
enough to prove to the Blue
coach that his pupils have pro
gressed many milestones on the
road to football greatness.
Even with Albie Booth the
sensational Blue star on the side
lines the Bulldogs gained mucl
valuable ground against a vel
coached and fighting West Point
outfit. They are sure to do sc
against Dartmouth on Saturday
