At other times Quarterback Marsters rushed up and down the field with the ball under his arm. Dartmouth 34, Columbia 0. Yale and Brown started a football series 50 years ago, have played 35 times. Until last week Yale had won 29 times. Little Albie Booth, whose longest run was 16 yards, kept running till he made the 30th victory. Yale 14, Brown...

From this point on Dartmouth and Marsters were supreme, except for one determined Crimson stand, beneath its own goal posts. The ball went to Harvard on downs. Potter kicked out 25 yards, and on the next play Marsters outran the field for a score.
