    DARTMOUTH AND SYRACUSE ts HAVE HOT BATTLE Green Eleven Scored Two Touchdowns After Hard Runs-Score 15 to 10. Dartmouth won from Syracuse 15 to 10 in an intensely interesting but somewhat loose game Saturday at Springfield, Mass. The Syracuse team outWeighed Dartmouth, but the latter was always alert and it’s defense frightened at critical sta ges: Both of Dartmouth’s touchdowns were made by long runs, Cannell racing 50 yards af- ter catching punt for the first score and Gerrish travelling AS yards on a side line trick in the final quarter. Syracuse got it’s touchdown through a blocked three kicks, getting a safety on one of them. Tho lineup and summary: Dartmouth IS Syracuse 10 DuSoSSOlt EXPERIMENTATION.
