aggregation than Dartmouth and you
cannot get any follower of the Ithaca

be even close. With both teams taking
the field In this spirit, it should be a
thrilling contest.
For the first time in several seasons.
Dartmouth is none too confident of
success against Yale
The Blue has shown constantly in
creasing power and its attack is daily
growing smoother and more efficient.
Yale has q strong eleven.
NEW YORK UNIVERSITY is certain
IN it can win from Oregon. Chick
Meehan's difficulty will be to keep
the players from looking past Oregon
to the Georgia contest He, at least,
realizes that IL is necessary to win the
contest at hand, before thinking too
much about the next one. And Oregon
may prove hard to beat.
Several foot ball games this season
might have been won by drop kick
inserted at the proper moment.
The coaches know this as well as
any one else, and it would not be sur
prising to see bit more attention given
to goals from the field. A good kicker
is big factor in any attack
