game between the cIevens of Cornell
and Princeton this afternoon on Percy
Field was truly a. battle of giants.
Princeton WANING by score OF 10 to O..
Princeton played n snappy, scientific
game, but Corncll's heavy backs were
time and again driven through the line
of the Tigers for good gains. On the
whcle, each side did well, and there was
no brutality ana very little smuggling.
Their interference was uniformly excel
lent as was the defense work. Indi-
vidual playing was brilliant in many n-
stances. the daring sprints of Wheeler
round the ends and Refers work
against the Cornell line arousng great
enthusiasm. Shoch, before he was dis
qualified, was Il tower of strength for
Cornell. and Tangiman. who took his
place in turn. proved "a stone wall to
his assaiilnts. Wheeler was the star
of the Princeton team In ground gaining.
Cornell IS gratiiicd at the result. as last
