  AMBRIDGE, Mass, October %. “A gallant but unlucky band Of Dartmouth Indians gave Har- ward an acid foot ball test todav and washed away all Its claims to greatness. After outplaying the Crimson by wide margin in three OF the perlocs, the Indians lost a glorious winning cnance in the last minute of play, when Dave Hedges dropped Wilbur Powers perlect pass in the end zone and Harvard continued undefeated with an undeserVeo 10–⁠7 victory. The Indians, playing in their best form, of the season. outrushed Harvard IA first downs to 7 and ZIG yards to l16. They also took advantage OF the Crimson’s faulty forward-passing defense to complete II of their II aerial attempts for 141 additional yards. With its supposedly great backhe!d in action the Crimson was unable TO make any headway until late IN the second period, when Harry Wells directed a march from midfield, and after II stalled on Dartmouth’s 10-yard line, place-kicked a field goal. Jack Crlckard had tried to smash over a touch down and in so doing received leg injury that forced him from the game THE elusive Carl Pescosolido replaced him and the foot ball gods were listening to Harvard’s prayers when Jack frost, Dartmouth right end. started the second half by kicking off to “Pesky on his 3-yard line. “Pesky’‘ was not overburdened with interferers as he started down the rlgn1 side line and when the first Green tacklers hove in sight, he cut INSIDE of them.
