Mass,, November 28.—The run-kissed Indians from Stanford, armed with all | of Glen Warner's offensive trickery and their symbolic ax, today | scalped Dartmouth's Braves, 32-6, in the second clash of these widely sepa- rated tribes.

EW HAVEN, Conn., Novem- ber 28.—Into the forehead of Princeton’s battered Tiger, Yale rammed a defeat more biting, more humil- iating than anything in the his- tory of one of the most ancient of all foot ball rivalries. ‘While 38,000 blanketed, fur- encased spectators shivered in the cold and bleakness of a half-filled Yale Bowl, the Eli capped a late season surge of triumph by slaughtering the hapless Tiger, 51 to 14, in a savage, gleeful touch- down pogrom that was awesome in its entirety. Never before in the history of Prince- ton and Yale competition, now one of {the two triangles left to the historic “big three,” rivalry that built the back- bone of modern foot ball, has a Tiger team been subjugated as this hapless eleven, victorious only once this season, was today. Way back in 1890 Yale beat a Princeton eleven, 32 to 0. And until this afternoon that was the most severe defeat in all the Tiger gridiron annals. But today, with Winter in the air and snow all around, the Yale team that | conquered Harvard last Saturday rose on a mighty wave that engulfed the courageous but woefully weak Tigers, shattered them with eight touchdowns, scored three full elevens, and left Princetofl the sole consolation of two desperete touchdowns ia the sl quarter. Lassiter Star of Game. In the absence of Capt. Albie Booth, | Yale's Little Boy Blue, who is still in the college infirmary with a heavy cold, it was Bob Lassiter, wing-footed sopho- more from Charlotte, N. C., who formed the spear head of the terrific Yale offensive. ‘While every man on the Yale eleven today was an all-America by compari- son with the opposition, it was Lassiter, behind a marvelously executed wedge formation of interference, who raced 95 yards with a Princeton kick-off in the fourth quarter to provide the most spectacular play of the ridiculously one-sided contest. In addition to that bit, he scored two other touchdowns, one behind Walter Levering’s perfect blocking on a 35-yard sweep around his own right end early in the second quar- ter and again on a 7-yard burst around | the same end in the fourth period, after | bringing the ball deep into Tiger terri- tory on & 32-yard end run a moment earlier. . Lassiter, with a Yale future ahead as bright as any star of recent years, did not wind up his personal contributions | there. It seemed as if he were en route from one far point to another almost half the afternoon, turning in one dazzling dash after another, and after | big Joe Crowley opened the scoring parade with a 3-yard plunge to the first counter in the opening period, Lassiter whipped a short pass to Bob Parker from the Tiger 28-yard line to | start the quarterback on his way to the second touchdown. Not the Whole Show. When Yale was finding itself in the first quarter, and there was still some stubbornness in the Princeton line from tackle to tackle, Lassiter in three successive end runs dashed 23, 22 and 21 yards. He kept that up in between his ‘scoring jaunts, but he let the other fellows do some point making, too. Parker, rivaling Lassiter’s brilliant ard run back of one of Stan Purnell’s punts for a touch- down in the last period, was a brilliant figure in the Eli conquest, but the sur- nlprise of the day: was limber-hipped pair of brothers, Clem and Mack Wil- AR rgetown, 6—0 DEFEAT 15 WORST FVER GIVEN TIGER [Pounce on Hapless Old Foe PARSACA DELIVERS PUNCK FOR TITANS Hoya’s Line Is Glorious in Defeat in Closing Game of Regular Season. | ] sity, but a *5-foot-7 speci- men packed the punch that felled Georgetown, 6-0, in ite final game of the season yester- day in Griffith Stadium. “Rocky Bob” Parsaca, 165- | pounder, who wears a No. 17 col- lar, led the winning charge after a valiant band of Hoya forwards had fought off defeat through more than three-quarters of a contest in which the odds were heavily against them. Fretting on the side lines'were half a dozen ball carriers, passers and re- ceivers who might have won the dap for the Blue and Gray if whole of liml and body, but as it was, Georgetown | had no real power or versatility in its | backfield.

Blows Field Goal. Parsaca missed with a drop kick for extra point and it was his second un- successful kick of the day. Early in the first quarter he muffed with a 17- yard field goal try. Detroit got this opportunity in & | most unusual manner. In attem to punt, Dick King of Georgetown slipped on the mist-slickened turf and completely missed the ball, which was | gathered in on the Hoya 13-yard line | by Right Tackle Beer. The Titans had picked up only 5 yards on three plays when Parsaca essayed a field goal. The big thrill for Georgetown ad- herents came soon after tne kick-off in the third period when Ray Hudson, | now coming in for wide consideration for all-America end, grabbed a 10-yard pass. from Dick King and ran 44 yardc | to Detroit's 16-yard line. But George- | town’s patched-up backfield could ad- vance the ball no farther on three run- ning plays and on fourth down King's gg-f:selfiu intercepted by Halfback Bill | Whistle Stops Hoya Threat.

By means of & | 12-yard aerial, King to Joe Alenty, & | 15-yard penalty and several short gains, the Hoyas had advanced from midfield |to the 15-yard stripe when the referee | tooted recess. | Aside from Hudson's sprint with a pass, there was only one other long gain from scrimmage. Parsaca got off a masterful broken-field gallop of 30 yards in the third period which carried to midfield, where Alenty prevented his emergence into clear territory. The game was largely a punting con- test between King of Georgetotwn and Chris Shearer, with the advantage for distance alternating, but Parsaca’s 25 and 20 yard returns made a great dif- liamson, both juniors from Glencove, | ference in net effectiveness, The pase.
