Then there's West Point, which can be counted on to provide a well-trained, capable unit. Dartmouth, judging by its performance in 1934 in its first season of the Blaik regime, should be a hard-blaying, driving team capable of causing the Crimson no end of worry...
...took the pigskin from center he headed for the Harvard line full speed ahead, and he forced several yards even after he had been hit. Those Dartmouth men were running low and driving; Harvard was running with less decision, high, and easily toppled over. Another point under this head: Blaik has trained his men to run just as hard when they are running interference as when they are carrying. Harvard blockers wait for the attacker to approach; Dartmouth goes after them. Lastly, Dartmouth has learned to coordinate its merits, while Harvard still leaves much to the individual brilliancy of such...
Coach Earl H. (Red) Blaik brings his undefeated, untied, and unscored-on gridiron warriors to Cambridge today but in spite of the top heavy odds on the Green, the new Dartmouth mentor who was signed last fall in an attempt to lift the Big Green out of the football depths into which it had fallen for the past few years is not at all optimistic regarding this contest. Although heralded as one of the strongest teams in the East, the fact remains that when the "New Deal" eleven trots out on the field for the kickoff today it will...
Captain Jack Hill, another triple threat halfback star who has been injured since the start of the season is still on the bench and will not be used except in case of great emergency.

Despite the loss of several key men Coach Blaik still has some fine replacements in the backfield. Norm Rand, another of the "forgotten men" of last season, will be a capable substitute at one half and Pop Nairne, who has been heralded as one of the best runners to be seen for some years at Dartmouth will fill the second string right half position. Bill Clark, who ran 52 yards to help the Big Green to tie the Crimson game in the closing minutes of the game last year is just at capable now as then and will...
