...best thing about the Swarthmore game from the Princeton standpoint was the work of Dignan, right halfback. Slagle, star Princeton carrier, remained on the sidelines yesterday, but although he has been the mainspring of the Tiger aerial attack all season, four out of seven passes were successful with him out of the game.

Bradford played a good game against Dartmouth and will hold down the right end position...
