years won the football championship Of
the South. The University of North

athletic supremacy of Virginia, were
the vanquished and they went under

Every inch of ground made by either
team was holly contested and for the
first half 1t was anybody's game
There was present by far the largest
crowd ever in Island park, and among
them were almost the whole OF Rich

urged to do all in their power to put
down baseball.
Some OF the younger ministers who

to make ridiculous spectacle Of itself
He offered substitute that conn ittee
be appointed to draw up set of rules
to be known as Conference Football

guage Of tho original resolutions and
merely expressing disapproval of the
evil tendencies of football was adopted.

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-The day was q
perfect one for football, and the field
was so arranged that neither wind nor
sun favored either team. Much, there
fore. was expected in the line of brilliant
playing on both sides. In this the
crowd was not disappointed. Never
was such game of football played in
the history OF the sport for dash of
movement, exquisite Interference, u:as-
terful judgment and logged persistence.
Yale was beaten at her own game
Much Of the interference used so
effectively against her was first used by
her, and has this year been adopted and
improved upon by Princeton. Yale is
no longer the master of team play on
the football field, for she was outclassed
in this art by her opponents to-day.
Though the Jerseyites showed re-
markable agility in dashing through
openings and in worming their way
along under the very noses of the
tacklers for three yards frequently, the
credit OF Princeton's brilliant play must
not all go to them, for the work OF the
resistless FIVE, though unseen BY the
ponents' ranks that it only needed
quick dash by the backs and five yards
was gained, and showed clearly that the
Princeton line cannot be matched on
the field to day.
Though Yale's backs hit the lines
we'll their gains were small, for Prince
ton was impenetrable. Butterworth
was the only man who could advance
any appreciable gain. He was worked
hard, and his bucking, added to his
punting, easily put him at the very
top. His punts on the whole were not
as brilliant as was expected though.
A few were phenomenal, but many
others were weak and showed the effects
Of excitement. The result was that
Blake punted tor more yards on the
whole than he. Blake was easily out
classed in bucking the line, however,
and was not given the ball for a single
run around the ends.
Blake won fame to-day by his cool
ness. Wheeler outclassed Hickok at
guard, and is, therefore, now the recog.
nized king of the field in his position
King, Ward and Morse also proved
their right to place in the front rank
as backs.
This is how the game was won:
Princeton tried the flying wedge and
with mighty effort Yale braced with
muscles set and teeth clinched. Tho
wedge came laundering against them,
their line quivered, broke; there was o
plunge forward, the twenty. two men
struggled and fell, but down on the five
yard line his blonde head covering the
ball was little King, Princeton's quar-
terback. Yale was dazed; Princeton
was frantic.
There was another flying wedge, and
the struggling mass fell. The cry on
all sides rose, sis it over?" The ball
had been advanced only yard. Every
one felt that at the next effort the
ball would 20 over il it had to be
pushed through stone wall. The
effort was not made by the flying
wedge, but by one of Princeton's
plunges at the line. The mass of
players when they fell in the scrimmage
extended over both sides of the line,
and it was not known until the men
were untangled that Ward had the ball
on safe territory and touch down was
made against Yale. King kicked the
goal which completed the days score of
to in favor of Princeton.

The teams lined up at s:l5 as follows:

OIhPlrc-Burnett, Hefereo-B0shcr.
North Carolina won the toss, but took
the side favored by the slope and Vir-
ginia the ball. They started off with
the flying wedge, and managed to get
the ball onto Cardinals eight yard line.
Penton got the ball, and went over for a
touchdown, but was called back by the
referee, and the bail went to Carolina
feint was made, and Virginia got the
ball again. and the ball advanced to the
ten-yard line, where It. went to Carolina
on foul. Hickok got touchdown,
which was not allowed on account of a
foul. The first half ended with a score
Of 0 to O..
In the second half Virginia used the
same tactics and being favored by the
hill soon got touchdown. Harper
failed on the goal, making the score
to 0. Virginia soon got the ball for
also for third touchdown by brilliant
runs, making the score IL to 0 when
time time was called.
Virginia deserved her victory. In the
first half with the odds against her she
forced the ball up the field to the North
Carolina ten yard line five times only
to have it taken away for fouls. In the
second half Of thirty minutes with the
advantage Of the slope she found no
difficulty in forcing the tar heels for
three touchdowns
The playing of Harper, Johnston and
Jones was most conspicuous. North
Carolina has great material, but lacks
the team work shown by Virginia. They
are strong in the line, and made most
of their gains between tackle and end
Randolph played with a zinc plate
over his side to protect some broken
ribs and Hickok had sprained ankle
