 Princeton, N. J., Nov. 22.-(UP)- Dartmouth's Green Indians, stand- ing on the threshold of their first perfect season since 1925, encoun- ter undefeated Princeton to-mor- row in the most significant clash of the current eastern campaign. The stakes will be high greater than in any previous battle be- tween these members of the tradi- tional Ivy league.
 A crowd of 60,000-one of the largest in Princeton's history-wijl jam Palmer stadium to witness the battle between two of the casts three undefeated, united elevens.
 The mythical eastern champion ship will become the property of the winner. If 1t goes to Dart mouth, the Indians will be strong favorites for an eastern bid to the Pasadena Rose Bowl game. Prince ton turned down an invitation in 1883 and undoubtedly will do so this year if 1t finishes with perfect record.
 During recent weeks Dartmouth had been counted out of the Pasa- dena picture because of seini-offi- cial reports that it would refuse an invitation even if a flawless sea- son was turned in.
 
 New Angle But the situation was clarified this week, by official explanation that if and when 8 Rose Bowl bid is received Dartmouth's athletic coun- cil of nine members will decide the acceptance question.
 A large portion of the Hanover Alumni and majority of the coun- ell members are understood to favor the trip.
 Princeton, which has lost only one game in three seasons, ruled 7h to favorite to continue its reign over Dartmouth. In IS games since 1897, the Tigers won II, Dartmouth three and one ended in a tie. Princeton took the last two games of the present series, which start ed in 1883 after a 17-year break.
 The team that wins should have easy sailing next week in its final game of the season. Princeton plays Yale, the eleven which upset 1t last year, and Dartmouth encounters much-beaten Columbia.
 Tomorrows battle will be the sec- ond largest betting contest of the season, running only behind the Notre Dame-O Ohio State brawl in the amount of money wagered. The Tigers started the week 9-9 fav- orites but that price has been ham, mered down so rapidly that Dart mouth may take the field only q 6h to s upderdog--mainly because its schedule hasn't been as stiff as Princeton's.
 Statistics
 Dartmouth rolled up 289 points in eight games to become the f1a- tion's high scorer. Princeton gar- nered 192 in seven contests. But the Tigers played Pennsylvania, Williams, Rutgers, Cornell, Navy, Harvard and Lehigh while Dart mouth met Norwich, Vermont, Bates, Brown, Harvard, Yale, VII. liam and Mary and Cornell. Both played Harvard and Cornell and the Nassau scores were more irn- pressive. Tn the Harvard game, Princeton won 35-0, and Dartmouth 14-6. Against Cornell, Princeton triumphed $40 and Dartmouth 41- 6.
 The teams appear to be evenly matched, physically. The Prince ton backfield is rated the superior heavier and faster. Both Garry Levan and Jack White are faster than any Hanover back and with the exception of Levan, the Tiger backfield outweighs its opponents. Dartmouth has an excellent line, slightly better than Princeton's.
