Princeton has taken a long step forward in the plans for its new library announced recently by President Harold Willis Dodds. For some time hailed as the home of "professional football" and big-time athletics, Princeton has wisely chosen to construct a new library rather than replace her notoriously old gymnasium, about which there has been so much under-graduate and alumni complaint. This action should go for toward discouraging much unjust criticism which has been directed toward that university. -Yale News
Coach Carr's forward line was rather ineffectual yesterday. Jim Wood and Leon Manheimer played well at the outside posts, but around center substitute Newlin Hastings '38, in his initial performance, appeared to have an edge over the starting regulars. The summary: HARVARD 1 DARTMOUTH 0 Perry, g. g., Allen Robie, Holcombe, r.f. r.f., Young Powell, l.f. l.f., Davidson Roosevelt, r.h. r.h., Crumbine Dorman, (Robie), c.h. c.h., Land Vincent, l.h. l.h., Mosenthal, Lewis Dawson, (Hastings) (Manheimer), r.o. r.o., Mayo, Brown T.

Dartmouth this week will add another chapter in the story of the 1935 booting machine, so far unbeaten. Perhaps Floyd Haskell, who filled in at halfback for Dan Purdue on Saturday, can release Frank Vincent into the forward line. Perhaps Syd Dawson will perfect that corner kick which led to the first goal against Army. Perhaps the Motley brothers will learn to meet the ball on the nose every time when in scoring position...
...more forwards and a halfback crowd the ball at the same moment of attack. A fullback is discovered carrying the ball beyond the center of the field. A wing halfback leaves his outside forward to wrestle by himself with the opposition up in the corner of the field. A minute later the same outside forward is caught down field. A center forward tries to beat a pair of men in mid-field...
...Johansen, center forward, can shoot just about as well as anyone in College, Frank Harnden and John Johnson, inside forwards, think fast, are quick with their feet, and want to play the scientific game called soccer. Dick Lowis, center halfback, is already a well-known post. Be covers the whole field; kicks everything, often in mid-air, as soon as it comes to him, and seldom misses. But Williams at goal is the class of the league. He gets them, high or low, clears fast, and has plenty of nerve...
