Four Harvard players who started last year's one-sided contest will be in action with the first kick-off today.

...early contests, but neither has played in a contest of major importance. Putnam and French are brilliant Sophomores whose big test comes today.

Two years ago Dartmouth barely tied Yale, but a week later defeated Harvard. That year Dooley was largely blamed for the failure of the Dartmouth attack at the Bowl. But within seven days he was bailed as the hero of the Green's success in the Stadium...
