    INDIANS OVERWHELM DARTMOUTH TEAM. Reveal Sensational Attack In Defeating Hanover Eleven 35- 10. New York, Nov. 16.-With a varying attack that seemed the nearest point to perpetual motion reached by foot ball scientists. Carlisle Indians defeat grounds Saturday. With a lead of 10 to gained in the first half, the big green team was swept aside in the In dians’ double quick march through the beWiIdeTed New EnglanderS. Among Glenn Warmers government educated redmen two figures stood out like emissaries of the Great Spirit. Gus Welch, captain of the Carlisle band, and Joe GuyOn, 19 year old Chippewa, who moved in the niche in Carlisle football fame left vacant by Jim Thorpe, were speeding messen- gers of victory. Stop Guyon and Welch” was the Dartmouth cry early in the second half and nearly twenty thousand thrilled and filled followers of Manhattan’s biggest football feast to date heard the echo of it from the walls of the big stadium when the final whistle blew. Welch, alert and elusive, smeared Dartmouth’s forward passes, turned long hurls by Cthee and Llew- ellyn into ultimate gains for Carlisle and ran back Curtis 50 yard punts with speed that startled his oppO- nents. The ever active Guyon broke from his mates and Dartmouth tackles with such brilliant individual efforts as to suggest a lone star. but at times when interference helped Guyon was snugly nestled behind it. Once away, he was daringly resourcefuL picking his way through broken fields with never faltering good judgment. Dartmouth’s Line Easy. Two more thoroughly efficient dem onstratOrs of the possibilities of mod ern college football scarcely could T possibilities of the forward pass and it’s attendant moves in the new wide open game. Carlisle found Dart mouths line only tottering relic of the sturdy front that WithstOod the as saults Of the Tigers and Pennsylvania. The Indians were actually forced to kick on one occasion, and then a 15- yard penalty made that move neces- Sary, Before Dartmouth had considered all the points of some play that rushed the Indians through their territory with speed and certainty, the redmen had another under way. It was this ! variation in the attack and close ad- herence to the speed system that made five touchdoWns possible from each of which the squatty Barlow booted the 1 ball over the bar twice after Welch had punted out from a troublesome angle.
