weakening of the Princeton team put adj
ditional life into Yale. From the thirty
yard line Mcbride tore through the center
Tor three yards. Benjamin added four more
and Dudley carried the ball by marvellous
run to Princeton's twelve-yard line. On
the next rush Captain Rodgers put the ball
eager, and Edwards interfered with the
ball. and Yale got five yards for the OFF,
side play. TINS put the ball within twelve
inches Of the goal, from which point Dudley
eagerly went over the line for the first and
only touchdown. Cadwallader kicked "a
goal without trouble.
To be sure. Yale did not score another
point, but the Princeton team saw some of
the most marvellous PUSHES of the season
when Desaulles- catching the ball on long
punts by Wheeler, lodged the entire
Princeton team and ran once forty yards
and again thirty which proved the longest
oashes in the game. But even this did not
entirely discourage the Tigers. Led by
Kelley. the team took a brace that has sell
dom been equaled. With the lends back
and well punched the Tigers ploughed
through the Yale line for gains of five and
ten yards until the ball was on Yales twen-
ty-f1ve-yard line, when fun bic lost
Princeton the ball and perhaps the game.
This was the nearest that Princeton came
to scoring during the entire game.
Twice Yale placed the ball on Princeton s
1ive-yard line. only to be thrown back for a
loss. Bannard was injured and Ayres took
his place. Five minutes before time was
called Yale made her last attempt at scor-
Ing. BENJAMIN could do nothing against
Mcbride were sent through for gains. Dud-
ley seemed to find the best holes. while
Rodgers duplicated his first run through
Holt for ter yards, until the ball, for the
last time. was on Prlnceton'S five-yard line,
when time was called and the game was
over.
The tackles on YaIe's were slightly supe-
rior to Princeton, while the ends were far
ahead Of the Tigers. Hall and Hazen went
down on all the kicking like lightning,
while Cochran. Lathrop and Craig were
painfully slow and to this was no doubt
due the long runs of Desaulles. Baird
played we'll while he lasted and ran the
team with good idea of plays, but De-
saulles was nearly his equal and far SUI
peT1Or TO Burke. Back of the lines Dudley
was the shining star, while Benjamin and
Barnard were about on a par, for neither
seemed at his best. Again, long as he
lasted, Baird gained greater distance on
punts than Mcbride, but the latter out
kicked Wheeler. The lineup:
