Today the 1924 eleven faces its first real test of the year. The games with Virginia and Middlebury were preliminaries. That with Holy Cross was an indication of what may be expected of the Crimson organization when it faces defeat. Today's game with Dartmouth will exhibit Harvard's power for the first time against a team which has already proved its strength.

When the big Green team left Cambridge a year ago, it carried away a 16-0 victory. But Dartmouth knows and Harvard knows that the Indians will meet a better team in this afternoon's contest than the one it defeated then. This does not create any false sense of security. Dartmouth held Yale to a tie last week and comes to the Stadium today bent upon preventing another balanced decision. But Captain Greenough and his men, with the entire student body behind them, have no thought of a tied score.
