Led by big "Mim" Daddario, the day's backfield brilliant, the Card-, inal team struck into their rivals' end zone to score the winning touchdown in the third period after being roundly outplayed throughout the first half during which Trinity ground out nine first downs with Wesleyan recording none and nearly crashed over the Cardinals' goal line in the early minutes when the their play clicking smoothly and Bob O'Malley rifling some accurate aerials to Frank Jackson and Pete RibA tore off five first downs in a row to drive to Wesleyan's one-foot line. Nearlv 3000 watched the rival teams, football feudists since 1885, emith fr. nut nn the Willtnn field.

The victory was Wesleyan's twenty-sixth and Trinity's defeat was its fifteenth in their long series. Daddario Scores. Daddario al.nost singlehandedly gave the Wesleyan team its victory, lea'ping high to grab one of Bob O'Malley's aerial at mid-field, and go, in a Cardinal streak, down his right side-line to the three yards line where he hurtled out of bounds and later smashing over for the score, A swarm of Cardinal mates "picked him up" on his long down-field dash and gave him some help but Daddario, fleet as a hound-chased rabbit, got 'over the 49 yards mostly on the power in his rugged legs. O'Mallev struck diagonally across the field and chased him desperately, but the flying Daddario was too fast even for swiit-gaited Bob.

Cards Threaten Again. Wesleyan's spirit soared after the touchdown and the Cards went banging Into Trinitv territory with Daddario tearing off most of the yardage, and starting the drive with 'a 95 varrte rnn-hark fif a kick With Joe Morningstar cutting down Trinity's big Stan Alexander wijh the prettiest block of the day. The Middletowners drove again deep into Trinitv territory in th? fourth period, driving to the "8" with Weinstein and Daddario slashing off the tackles and wings only to' be halted by a suddenly stiffen-taf Hilltop line.

Smashing goalward again a few minutes later they were again stopped when Trinity's hard-hitting Jack Carey jumped on' a fumble by With the final minutes ticking away, the Trinity team, after punting out, came surging upfield in a last wi)d drive and, putting its entire attack overhead, slashed from its own 40 to Wesleyan's 30 with O'Malley firing, some thrilling aerials to right end Bill Kelly. A long shot to Jackson, which might have put the Hilltoppers on the threshold of a score; was caught out of bounds by the Trinity receiver, and Daddario intercepted the next throw as th game ended.

Again Frank faded back, danced away from the savage charges of Dartmouth linemen until he picked out Al Hessberg, cutting for the. sideline on the Dartmouth side. Frank let fly and Hessberg.

running deep and obliquely, clutched the ban just about the Dartmouth 20 yard line. Crowded over to the sideline, it didn't seem that he could escape the clutching arms of the Green defenders. But, running with a vicious drive, he pulled away from three Green defenders and set out for the goal line 20 yards away. He was away like a Jesse Owens leaving the start- ing blocks and a stride from the goal line in the wink of an eye. Some one down near that last white line hit him but not squarely enough to knock him off his feet, and Hessberg went sprinting into the end zone.

Yale Followers Overjoyed. The Yale stands were going mad. Ycu could feel, almost see the stunned, shocked silence of the Dartmouth legions seated across the field. Then came steel-nerved Gil Humphrey and the kick that deadlocked the teams almost as the last seconds ticked off on the watch in the hands of the field judge. Tlay Good Football.

What happened prior to that heart-rending finish may seem almost anti-climatic, although in the first 58 minutes there was played on both sides a lot of good football. Yet, save for the brilliant touchdown run Of Bob MacLenrl mrii yard runback of an mtprcpntpH OJJ by Bill Hutchinson, Dartmouth's Harvard game hero, the contest was largely for the football technicians, lit lacked the gusto of some other Yale-Dartmouth strangles. But that nnian win oe remembered long after the rest of the game is forgotten. Dartmouth, starting with a 12-yard Holllngworth-to-Gates forward pass, and continuing with an 11-yard run by Hutchinson and a 13-yard end sweep by the nimble-footed MacLeod, knifed 51 yards late in the first period, only to have the tenacious Yale defenders take the ball on downs 20 yards from the Ell end zone. That was the first quarter.

Though it developed no scoring, it belonged to Dartmouth. Dartmouth's seven-man lin. an amazing bit of tactics in this era of open football, had stopped Yale cold. Frank was helpless to run and that seven-man line was rushing his passing. Yale's five-man line, with, three close backers-up, was doing almost as well when the chips were down.

It was a standoff until, early in the second quarter, Colwell's 83-yard punt drove Dartmouth back on its heels. Here was the tlrst real break of the game, and Yale promptly cashed it in for two points. Hol-lingworth called for a pass from center to his tail back, Bill Hutchinson, standing deep in his own end zone. Hutchinson tried to swing Yale's left end but Johnny Miller, the Eli right end. stormed into him behind the goal line.

Gallagher and Clint Frank came smashing in to ctnnpiei? me wienie, ana Hutcninscn was buried under the three of them for a safety. Those two Yale points looked big for a longf time.

30. (AP.) A twenty-yard end around end play, which allowed Mike Latvis to cross the goal line standing up in the opening period, accounted for Williams College 6 to 0 victory over Union this afternoon. Union held for four downs within her own three yard line after Larry Durrell, Doug Stearns and Fielding Simmons figured in a drive after Union's second half kick off. The visitors crossed midfield under their own power only once, when Sam Hammerstrom made two long runs and later recovered a Williams fumble. Bill Stradley, Wil-lias back checked this sole Union threat when he intercepted a pass and ran 35 yards, putting Williams well in Union terriory as the game ended.

The victors gained tw'ce Union's yardage by rushing and running back Brockmeyer's punts for a total of 140 yards, but lacked scoring punch cn two occasions within the Union 20-yard stripe.

Oct. 30. (AP.) Brown University marched to an easy victory over Tufts here today before an estimated crowd of 6000 spectators. Foster, Bernstein and "Shine" Hall each scored a touchdown for the home forces. Tufts only threatening gesture for a score came shortly after the opening kickoff.

Abdu. Tufts fullback, punted to Hall, who fumbled the ball and Sherry recovered on the Bruins' 13-yard line. Quarterback Collier went off tackle to the three but Griffin fumbled on the next play as he was tackled just short of the goal line, Pctrone recovered the ball the end zone. From this point Brown marched 80-yards with Frank Foster crossing the goal from the Jumbos' 0-yard line, for the first touchdown. Brown took advantage of a poor Tufts punt in the third period when Abdu's kick went out of bounds on his own 42.

30 (AP.) Tli? hapless Norwich Cadets only able to cash one of their three scorin? chances today when they lost their fourth straight game of th to Vermont. 18-6. Mike Chornyak scored two of the Vermont touchdowns, both after completing passes from Sunderland, in the first and third periods. Jones bucked over from the one-yard line for the victor second tally early in the second period And today's win was the first in mree years ior me unmson a major game. The Crimson, using its power and its deception, outclassed the Tigers in every department of the game.

Led by the powerhouse running of Vernon Struck, the exceptionally brilliant end play cf Bill Green and the splendid tackle play of Kervor-kian, the Cambridge team lefo no doubt in the minds of the 50.000 who saw today's clash that their victory was deserved. It was the highest score Harvard ever made against a Princeton outfit. Use Only One Pass. And the Crimson crashed through to its impressive victory wfith a fine display of rather old fashioned grid tactics and an almost absolute disregard for an aerial attack. Only once in the 60 minutes of play did Harvard use a forward pass and that one attempt was incomplete.

But the Johnnies from Cambridge had so much strength in their rushing game that they made 15 first downs and totaled 307 yards in gains. Princeton made but six first downs rushing and a pair was garnered from the Tiger aerials to give Princeton a total yardage of 149 with Harvard settled the outcome before the first quar.er ended by pushing over a pair of touchdowns to lead 13 to 0 and in less than a minute after the opening of the second period the Crimson added another touchdown and made good the point to pile up a 20 to 0 lead. After that the Crimson settled down to a safety first program, playing for the breaks and testing their defensive set-up. So it was not until lae in the fourth quarter that the Johnnies added their final seven points. Struek's running, inside as well as outside the tackle spots, was Harvard's most effective ground gaining play and with Boston and Harding doing most of nis blocking and the holes being opened by kervokian and Green, the big Harvard bark had a field day.

He set up the first touchdown with journeys of 22 and 20 Ho punched through for a yard to score the second, picked up a blocked mint and ran 24 yards to score the third, ran 21 vard.s from scrimmage through a broken field, to score the fourth touchdown and also had one.
