KING KICKED A GOAL
and the score was Princeton 6, Yale
nothing. For the remainder OF the first
half there was desperate playing.
Princeton repeatedly smashed through
Yale's centre, while Yale failed to make
any great gains with the exception OF a
pretty run made by Armstrong through
Princeton's left.
Yale seemed TO have lost all the snap
which had characterized her playing la
games heretofore, and Hinkey and But
terworth seemed to be the only men
who we're playing. or course Hinkey
had been badly hurt, and Thorne was
also 10 pretty hard shape. Time on the
first half was called at 1896. Score:
Princeton, 6; Yale, nothing.
THE SECOND HALF.
In the opening Of the second half
Yale started again to use her old trick
Of bucking Ire centre, but with
the exception. OF the first gain made
by ButterWorth their play was IN
successful. Princeton's centre seemed
like a stone wall. Seven successive
times Yale tried to push either Butter
worth, ThOrne OR mstrong through,
but each time they were dOwned With
out making any considerable gain.
Then Princeton tried IL, but Yale
seemed TO be waking up and re-
sisted the attack. Blake was then
forced 10 punt After Butterworth had
tried unsuccessiully to come through
Princeton's centre, Ballet broke Prince
toms left aud took the ball right out Of
Butterworth's hands. Ward was then
pushed through for ten yards. Gray
was sent around for ten more; Prince
ton got five more for Yale. The second
hali closed without another scare.
Gray was sent around for ten more.
Princeton got five more for Yale inter
ference.
Three tunes Yale tried Princeton's
centre but With no effect.
Blake Dunted and ButterwOrth caught
it but was dOwned Immediately by
Brown. Butterworth punted for TWEEN
ty-fve yards and King fumbled, but
FOR Ya'e's interference Prince
ton got the ball. King
made one of the cleverest
maneuVres Of the day. Ballet had put
the ball In play a few seconds before
the half backs were ready. King,
taking the ball, found nobody TO receive
it and huggng it close started around
Yale's left end. He succeeded in max
ing 25 yards, escaping all the tacklers
until he reached Butterworth, who
downed him. With flying interference
Princeton carried the ball up to Yaie's
fve-yard line. They lost the ball to
Yale, aud ButterwOrth punted. The
ball went fully 40 yards, one Of the
longest DuutS Of the day.
PRINCETON SECURED IT
and with solid wedge in one play
forced il back IS yards. King, Morse
and Ward then made very clever play.
King passed the ball to Ward, while
Criss scored it TO Morse. The Yale
players had started for the right and
Morse In the meantime coming like a
cyclone. There was hardly anybody
in his way, aud with the aid Of Kings
fine intsrferancN be succeeded
IN making o. yards. At this
iuncture Of the game ThOrne was fore
ed 20 retire and Hart took his place.
Yale seemed TO be thoroughly Surpris-
ed at the plays Of their opponents and
weakened considerably. Four or five
times Princeton 6ucked the centre and
three successive plays carried the ball
up to Yale's 6ve-yard line. The crowd
on the stands yelled themselves hoarse.
When time was called the ball was on
Yale's 15-yard line.
Score, Princeton 6, Yale nothing;
touchdOwus. Ward for Princeton l;
goals, King for Princeton 1; time OF

ticnlar that since 1883 Yale has won IL
championship games, Princeton and
Harvard 1. Since 1888, out Of total
OF i22 games played Yale has won lis,
