PALMER STADIUM, PRINCETON, N, J., Oct. 23—This immense gray horseshoe shaped stadium attained rainbow colors this afternoon when 20,000 flag-carrying football fans cheered the elevens of Princeton and Dartmouth tn their annual gridiron battle, The weather was perfect though a high wind rushed in through the open north end which kept every- body cheering not only because they felt that way, but something had to be done to keep warm. The real noise making began when the entire number of Orange and Black students behind their hand swung in through thewpen entrance in @ great snake line singing “Whoop it up for Old Nassau.” ‘The line slowly paraded around the field, stopped to give the three cheers for Dartmouth, then continued over to the west sands, where the Princeton students made a rush for seats, Soon after the big green rushed on Yard went into to-day’s football game against Cornell at the Stadium with something more like a “regular” |ine- up than in the earlier games of the season.

Closely following the Dartmouth team came the Princeton squad, thirty-five strong, Up rose the Orange and Black section as one man and the Princeton Tigers roared across the fleld. As both teams ran through singles, it was evident the Princeton players were a little heavier than their up- onents, though Spear, the 230-pound aartmouth tackle, was the giant of both elevens. Princeton ruled a slight favorito, though Dartmouth always gives Old Nossau @ stiff battle, the toss and decided to defend the south goal with a 40-mile wind sweap- ing against them, TIBBOTT KICKS TWO FIELD GOALS.
