BOSTON, NOV. 16.-NeVer in the MS
tory of college athletics has such vast
assemblage attended a contest in CAM
bridge as that of to-day to witness the
game between the Harvard and Prince
ton foot ball eIevens on Jarvis field.
Every seat was taken long before play
was called, and mass of struggling
humanity fifteen to twenty feet deep
entirely encircled the field out
side of the ropes. The respec-
tive teams we're greeted with
deafening cheers as they came
on the grounds for preliminary practice.
1t was a perfect foot ball day. The
ground was hard and firm and just
faint northwest wind was blowing
diagonally across the field. Fully TO-
600 people We're sitting or standing
about the field when the two elevens
appeared for their preliminary practice.
The Princeton men looked confident
and the supporters of the crlmson had
an earnest feeling that whatever the
outcome, their eleven would make
hard fight. The teams lined up as
follows:
Upton, left tackle. 160; Cranston, leftguard.
1870; Tilton, center, 100: Trafford, right
guard, l75; Stickney, right tackle. 1853;
Crosby. right end. 145; Dean, quarter back,
half back. 100; Trafford. full back. 100; av-
erage weight of the team, 165 pounds; aver
age weight OF rush line, 16S pounds.
Princeton: Warren, right end, weight,
14s: Cash, right tackle, l64; Riggs. right
guard. l.0; George, center, IFS: Janeway,
left guard, 204; Cowan. left tackle. $50;
Donnelly left end. Isl; Poe. quarter back,
1872; Black, right half back, 1853; Charming,
left half back. IA; Ales. full back, l55;
Average weight of team, I64 pounds. Aver
erage weight of rush line. 172 pounds.
Harvard started with rush, and car
ried the ball into PrincetOn's territory.
After rushing up and down the center
of the field, Poe got the ball and carried
it into Harvard'S grounds. Poe. in MAX
ing a pass, fumbled the ball, and Cros-
by. of Harvard, captured it, making one
of the prettipst runs ever seen on JAR
vis' field. He carried the ball more
than two-thirds the length of
the field, with the feetest run
ners of both teams in hot purs uit
and succeeded in making touchdown
from which Trafford failed to kick
goal. At this point Warren, of Prince
ton, was disqualified for rough playing.
Princeton now forced matters tor
time, getting the ball near Harvard's
goal line. Charming captured it and
made touchdown, Ames falling TO
kick goal. Harvard again got all adj
vantage, and assumed
PECULIAR MODE OF PLAYING,
being satisfied with forcing the ball
down the field inch by inch. Princeton
finally got the ball in front of Harvard's
goal and Ames was enabled to kick the
goal from the field. Harvard pursued
the same style of play for the rest of the
first half, and succeeded in making
another touchdown. Princeton also
made a touchdown but did not kick a
goal. In this half Harvard's playing
was far superior to that OF Princeton
She seemed sure winner, and when
the first half closed with the score Is TO
10 in her favor. the adherents of the
crimson shouted themselves hoarse. In
the last half Harvard essayed the same
line of play that had proved so success
full so far, but she was baked at every
point by Princeton, whose players were
much the fresher and stronger. Prince
ton was the aggreSsor throughout and
gradually raised her own score by some
brilliant plays. The final score was IL
to Is in the visitors favor, the game
being finished in the dark. at the close
of the game the victOrs were carried
from the field upon the shoulders of
their friends.
