PRINCETON, n. j., Nov. 1.-The
crimson of Harvard was trailed in the
thick Jersey dust this afternoon by the
Tigers, and the orange and black of Mas
aau toated trium phantly in the evening
breeze. For two long hours the two
elevens swayed across the gridiron. fight
ing every inch Of the ground stubbernly
and bitterly. The scors was l2 to 4.
Princeton scored three touchdowns and
Harvard's four points were made by clev-
er blocking. Neither team showed well
in the developed tea.. play, and fumbled
and blocked kicks marked the play. A
DRILLING rain made the field heavy and
soggy. The players could not get solid
footing and Princetons heavy team. aver.
aging ten pounds more than Harvard,
told on the Cam bridge boys.
When the teams appeared on the field
fully 1000 eager spectators were gathered
around the gridiron. 1t was distinctly a
kicking game, both backs exchan 81 6
punts repeatedly and three of the four
touchdowns scored resulted directly from
kicks. q. Brewer easily eXcelled Baird
Princeton won the game through the
failure of the Harvard followers to hold
where Brewer dropped back for kick In
the frs half.
Both teams were very strong in the de-
fsnsive. In the last half Harvard had
the ball we'll in Princetons' territory most
OF the time, but their offensive play was
not ssrong enough to carry the ball over.
1t was at this stage of the game that
the sensational play OF the contest &C.
Cured. Harvard had the ball on Prince
tons six-yard Inns when Jack Fairohild
was sent to the center. He made gain
or yard and then fumbled. Little SUIT
ter, Princeton's plucky quarterback
picked up the ball and raced away down
the field for the upper goal. O. Brewer
was close behind aim. Rhodes made a
vain effort to block off the little Harvard
runner, but the Boston boy got away
clear and then raced after Suffer. For
fifty yards not an inch could he gain
then he slowly overhauled the Princeton
man, finally catching him by splendid
drive at the fourteen-yard line. 1t was
hair-faising play and the crowd was fair
ly thrilled by Suffers brilliant run of sew
enty five yards and Brewers wonderful
tackle. In the last part of the half Har-
ward began 90 hit up the Princeton line
vita telling effect. Then tandem inter-
ference went laundering into tackle and
center for good gains but the interference
was not steady enough to punch the ball
across the Tigers goal line.
In the second half there was marked
difference in Harvard's play. The men
went at it as if they knew they were
beaten. Their snap was gone, their line
work ragged: Rhodes and Riggs broke
through the line and blocked half the
kicks. Cochrane and Hearn tackled into
the interference repeatedly.
The defense work of both teams was
away ahead of their aggressive play, and
neither side had any good interference.
A number OF players on both sides
were forced to retire. but their injuries
were not serious. The contest was free
from any slugs ing, though little trouble
cropped out. In put out or the bounds,
Wrghtineton ran to the fence to tall on

gave him bad push into the fence; fore
