Trenton, y. j., Nov. II 1.-The Stalwurt
sons of old Pennsylvania clipped the
claws of the Princeton tiger by Il
score of twelve to nothing. 1t is Il glo
rious triumph for the red and blue
and places Pennsylvania in the very
front ranks of football teams. 1t was
a ;'lana battle stubbornly fought but,
try rs they did, the tigers at no time
had Il chance Of victory. Pennsylvania
out played them man for man and
never was the quaker goal in danger.
No scoring was done i'll the first half.
although the uuakers took the ball
within six inches of Princeton's goal
line about the middle of the first half
and lost it on four downs through
what was probably IN error in .iudg-
ment. Throughout this half, as well
as in the next, the ball was almost
constantly in Princeton's territory.
Never were the tigers nearer than
Pennsylvania 25-yard line and then
only on kicks which Brooke immedi-
ately returned, gaining from ten to
twenty yards on every exchange of
punts with Cochran. Shortly after the
opening of the second half the ball
was passed back to Cochran for a
kick on princeton's 2O-yard line but
the tiger fun back puntcd the ball into
the ranks of his own men and Will
liams with lightning agility. tucked
the leather under his left arm and
dashed down the field, through the IT,
gers ranks and dropped it behind the
goal post. Brooke placed the ball
squarely between the posts and over
the bar; scoring six points for Penn
sylvania.
Pennsylvania second touchdown
was made about five minutes before
the call of time. The quakcrS pounded
through the tackles, pierced the cen
ter and had carried the ball to Prince
tons ten-yard line. Here it passed to
Osgood who, like Il flash wheeled TO
the left. shook himself loose from the
Princeton end rush and carried
the ball over the line. AS in the for
mer case the goal was an easy one for
Brooke. After this Pennsylvania might
be said to have tOyed with the tigers.
Although Il great surprise to the null
titude and even to football experts
generally it was Il clear case of the
yanquishcd team being outclassed
The tigers, who three hours before.
bounded on the gridiron full Of conf
dence, now filed sadly off the field
many of them so weak and crippled
that they had to be borne in the arms
of comrades. The big crowd went
wild. Huge yellow chrysanthemums
and long black streamers faded from
sight. In their places hundreds of
blue and red ribbons burst into view
like magic. Finally the enthusiasm
became boundless and like great
flood the crowd surged out into the
gridiron, and hosting the quaker kick
ers upon It's shoulders, carried them in
triumph from the grounds.
Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 12.-Harvard
won from the Chicago A. G. by score
of sc to 0. The crimson eleven
played splendid football from the
start to the finish and the western
ers were never near the goal-line.
New York, Nov. 12.-Yale easily de-
feated Lehigh at the polo grounds by
a score of so to 0.
Iowa City, Nov. PA great crowd
witnessed the holly contested game be-
tween the state university and the
Grnnell teams. At 4:30 the score
stood II to T.. At this point 1t was
claimed that Grinnell seized the ball
after down was called and made n
run and touch down. The referee re-
fused to allow it and ordered the ball
back. Captain Crazy, of the Grinncll
team, ordered the men to quit unless
the touch down was counted. An an
CRY discussion ensued and the referee
finall gave the game to the state uni
yersity team, six to 0. Grinnell peo-
pie are very indignant and assert that
they are really entitled to the touch
down.
Minneapolis, Mimi. Nov 12.-The
Beloit college football team was de-
feated by the University Of Minnesota.
Score 40 to 0.
Albany, y. u, Nov. 12.-Never was
a more hotly contested game of foot
ball played than the one here between
Cornell and Williams. After ire
mendous struggle the game ended with
a cipher for each side.
