  DARTMOUTH BEATS POOR OLD HARVARD THE CRIMSON MEN ARE AT THE MERCY OF THEIR OPPONENTS AND HARVARD FAILS TO GRE ATE INTEREST. Cambridge, Mass, November 16.- Special )-Harvard was overwhelmed by Dartmouth 22 to this afternoon, the second crushing defeat of the Crimson this season. Dartmouth’s team play was wonderful, and her offensive work was ir- resistible. All the scoring came in the second half when the visitors had the Crimson com pletely at their mercy, the fast back field banging the Harvard tackles and ends at will Harvard made mess of new football, working the forward pass and on side kick each successfully but once. Wendell did some grand rushing, but only for the first 10 minutes of play did Harvard have Dartmouth on the jump. Three times within that period the ball was advanced inside Dartmouth’s six-yard line, only to be lost on fumbles, twice on forward passes. From then on everything was Dartmouth’s, and only by wonderful bracing did Harvard wrest the ball from the visitors in downs on the Crimson’s two-yard line. The lineup; Dartmouth. Position. Harvard.

  ANTICIPATES HARD CAME CAMP FEARS THE CRIMSON Yale’s Veteran Gridiron Artist Speaks of Dartmouth Luck. Waiter Camp believes that Yale will not have an easy time defeating Har- yard next Saturday, even though Dart mouth defeated the Crimson 22 to 0 last Saturday. The reason MT. Camp gives in support of his belief is that Dart mouth was playing in great luck at the stadium. Two of the touchdowns were made on blocked punts, one on an onslde kick, and the g points were completed by goal from the fieid. These scores were all made in the second half of the game and Dart mouth, which has an especially strong, team this year, was very evenly matched with Harvard in the first half Head Coach Knox is another fol- lower of the game who believes Yale will have 8 hard time with Harvard. Last night the Yale players were in- vited up to Knoxs room and urged not to become too confident over the vic tory from Princeton.
