 Messrs. Camp and Tompkins represented Yale at the football convention at New York Saturday. The other delegates were Messrs. Cabot, of Harvard, Pease and Morgan, of Princeton, and Morgan and Fishburne, of Columbia. There was no very important business besides the arrangement of the games. Princeton tried to push motion through the convention to restrict the num- Der of rushsrs in scrimmage to six of each team, and not to allow the half-backs to come the rusher line than ten yards when the ball wes to be snapped back, but the motion was lost. The games arranged for Yale were follows:

 The lacrosse game Saturday called about three hundred to the park. The game being new.to New Haven and the lacrosse team be- ing in it's infancy, considerable curiosity was felt aS to how Yale would acqu1t herself Tn contest with the older team from Princeton The ball put in play at 315 and was sent spinning toward Yale's goal but was returned skillful1y by Barbour, and from that time the ball WAS kept in constant motion, either fly ing across the field by some elI-directed throw, darting along the ground under the feet of the players. or carried in the stick of some fleet runner until after lively serimmage, the ball was sent through Yale's goal posts. In the second inning Princeton also scored 8 goal by swift throw, which was too much for Yale's goal keeper. The Yale men were not quick enough to follow up an advantage and lacked unity of action. They were not as alert as their opponents in lodging. How ever, the ball used was heavier than the one with which they are accustomed to play. For the visiting team Hodge, Riggs, Egbert and Field did the best playing. Mcdowell, Bowen, Mallon and Barbour, of Yale, should also be noticed. The teams were as follows ::
 Princeton--aoal Egbert. Point, Hodge (captain) i; cover point Hewitt defense-held. Gilmore, Hail, Rudd ter-hsd, field; attack-feld, Edwards, Blakemere Poe; home spence, Riggs.
