Thu sterling work of both teams was
the crowning feature of the game, the
work of tho quarterbacks being tho
most brilliant individual iiluy. Touch
downs by Snell and Llghtner und suc
cessful kicks for goal by Way and
Ituuch gavo the Blue and White their
well-deserved victory and Holbrook's
long run for a touchdown, followed by
Cunningham's successful boot wero tho

Both teams displayed a remarkable
amount oc stamina und training foi a
contest so early in tho season. Tho
visitors wore notable for their dash
and tho wonderful interference ac
cot tied their backfleld mon Bowers
was their star, his Ability to run back
punts for substantial gains being the
greatest asset the Dartmouth team
hud. But what gladdened tho -hoot Is
of thu onlookers mure than an) thing
else was the wonderful way in which
tho Blue and White lino held buck thu
plunging Daitmouth backs and tho
good work done in opening holes for
tho varsity bucks to pierce. In sever
al instances Ponn Statu linemen were
successful in brooding through tho
line and thiowing'thc Big Group bucks
for lossus '
Tho day in itself'was far from Ideal
from a football standpoint, causing tne
players to put forth extra effort to
maku their work count. Tho Blue uml

successful in Us forward passing than
was tho opposing team, successful
catches by Brown und McCollum be
