Princeton Victorious ‘ Princeton opened the new Palmer Memorial stadium Saturday with a 16 to 12 victory over Dartmouth. The game was crowded with thrills there being two blocked punts, one of which gave Princeton a touchdown. A bril- liant run of 75 yards by Ghee in the second period, after Princeton had 13 points, scored Dartmouth’s first touch down, The successful use of the for ward pass coupled with a smashing line attack gave her six points more, just before the game closed. Dartmouth had a powerful attack but the Princeton line proved equal to the task of holding it. Princeton s attack was purely open always mak- ing in her own territory. The first score came in the second period when, after Brown had covered Whitneys tumble on the IT yard line, Ames hurled the ball to B. Trenkmann for a gain of A yards. Ames tallied on the third play. Later B. Trenkmann blocked a punt and the ball rolled behind the goal, where Gennert dropped on it for another touchdown. Tibbott drop-licked a beautiful goal from the AZ yard line shortly afterward. Ghee scored the first touchdown for Dartmouth on a 76 yard run and the last tally came when two successful forward passes placed it on the. four yard line whence Curtis carried it over.
