Hanover, N. H., Oct. 24--The Dartmouth eleven went through its final practice session this afternoon in preparation for the game at Cambridge on Saturday. Throughout the afternoon's drill, the first three teams took turns on the defensive against a team which put on Harvard plays as interpreted by the Dartmouth scouts. Coach Cannell has emphasized defensive play throughout the week's practice, with the result that little stress has been placed upon offensive drills...
...Dartmouth scouts, including "Wife" Jennings '00, Jim Donnelly '20, and Frank Dorney '21, arrived in Hanover yesterday and assisted Coach Cannell with the practice today. Captain Ellsworth Armstrong was released from the College Infirmary yesterday morning, and reported for practice in the afternoon.

He is now receiving treatment and is expected to be in shape for Saturday's encounter. Armstrong and Booma spent some time practicing kickoffs, as it is doubtful whether or not Paul Crehan will be in the starting...

The remainder of the applications were filed by members...

Accordingly for the Dartmouth battle loud speakers have been installed in sufficient number to make acoustics unnecessary, or at least that's what Frank Ryan, who is in charge of press box operations, is hoping. If he is right, it will be just one more step towards making the Stadium press box one of the best...
...When Dartmouth arrives in Cambridge again this week-end, conditions will to all intents and purposes be much the same as they were last year. The Big Green outfit will be essentially untried, and consequently probably somewhat overrated; the Crimson will be conceded to have lots of power, but there will still be some who won't be quite sure where it will lead to. And there won't be one out of a hundred who will dare to make anything like a positive prediction about the outcome of the Stadium clash...
