Team A Smothers Attack--Defense Should Prove Strong Enough Saturday if no Passes Slip Through

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Only their black jerseys distinguished Coach Knox's scrubs from the Dartmouth eleven that will line up in the stadium on Saturday. For over an hour yesterday afternoon, the seconds tested the team A defense with all the plays in the Dartmouth repertory.

On the whole, however, team A had little trouble in smothering the Dartmouth style of play. It is only in case some of the Dartmouth forward passes connect that Harvard need fear for the safety of its goal line on Saturday.

In the course of the scrimmage, practically every member of the squad got a chance to try his hand against the Dartmouth formations. The team lined up with Hill and Crosby at ends, Evans and Dunker at tackles, Grew and Hubbard at guard and Kernan at center. Lee was at quarterback with Jenkins. Cheek and Hammond as backs.

On the whole both Harvard and Dartmouth will be in very much the same condition on Saturday. Of both teams one may say that the line bucking is unimpressive and the defense on the whole much stronger than the attack. With Calder out, Hammond should have the advance over Kelley or Hall, Dartmouth's remaining punter. In forward passing, however, Dartmouth is credited with the stronger attack.
