THE GREAT IALE-PRINCETON GAME.
BOTH TEAMS CoNFIDENT-THE HARVARD Diff
Guilty NOT YET SETTLED


GUILTY NOT YET SETTLED.
The great athletic game of the fall for this city
takes place tomorrow. Yale and Princeton will play
their annual football game the Polo Grounds and If
the weather be fair there will be crowd present
which will almost rival the great gathering which saw
the Harvard Yale game last Thanksgiving Day. AS
could be learned yesterday all available tayhos
and drags had been engaged for the game and
IL was said that hotel premiums were offered
for a coach. A special train will bring crowd OF
Princeton men TO Ncw-York, and Yale College Will
certainly be deserted tomorrow. The game VIII
probably DO called ut about 80 p. m, with ". A.
Brooks Harvard 's7, referee. Both sides are con-
fdent of winning, and 1t appears to be the general
belief that chance will decide the game. If chance
means luck" then yale LUCK is an expression
which need not be translated. But Lamar took about
one chance in hundred three years ago, and Prince
ton Will perhaps match Yale luck" with Il" Lamar's
chance A wellknown Yale man said yesterday
that his Princeton acquaintance were asking odds
The difficulties about settling the place of the samo
are not remembered any longer by the two teams, and
they will meet friendly terms. Tho best of feel
ing exists, and 1t will continue to exist unless re-
porers who do not understand tho game distort the
Inherent rough features into smuggling" matches.
Yale understands Pnceton's difficulty, and her treat
ment of Princeton is warmly praised by Princeton
men, c. c. Cuyler, Of the Princeton Graduate Foot
ball Advisory Committee, spoke in the most compi-
mentary terms Of tho fair manner in which Yale men
had helped TO adjust the misunderstanding He was
particularly strong In his praise OF tho honorable and
gentlemanly taken by the captain OF the laie
team.
The most interesting heard yesterday in foot
ball circles that strong pressure was being
brought TO induce Harvard to play Yale at New Haven
on Thanksgiving Day, aud that Harvard would with
draw from the intercollegiate Football Association liar
wards position in this trouble with Yale 1t Is thought
has not been understood by the general public. Ip
few DAYS a movement will be developed TO place Ilar-
ward men in the proper light The graduates feel
that Harvard men should let Yalo namc the day and
place of tho game and that thcy should do anything
to rid themselves of the odium of tricky" and dis
graceful schcming for unfair advantages. 1t is be-
leyed here that a certain member Of the athletic
committee, who has made himself obnoxious In the
past to Harvard men, is at the bottom OF this trouble
II is thought that he is the who made II Impossible
for the team play here. and accomplished his ENDS
after the season had been long advanced. A we'll
