The Tigers had no trouble rolling up 30 points against their visitors, while the scant consolation of Dartmouth's 7 points was made only when Coach Rush had sent in a substitute team. Princeton's stone-wall defense, the superior generalship of Captain Glick, the superior punting of Driggs, and the remarkable performance of Tibbott, were the factors which contributed most to the victory.

Barrett of Cornell, and Murphy, of Brown, the two quarterbacks, easily starred on account of their field generalship...
