however, was apparently playing With
far greater confidence, and when at last
Wheeler caught one of McBride's punts
on Princeton's five yard line, and in
stead of making a fair catch put the
ball to Baird, the latter was pushed
over the line for a seeming safety and
the crowd went crazy. This score was
not allowed and Wheeler on the first
down kicked out of danger. Then came
a series of plays which in the end won
the game for Yale.
At first Reiter went out and Kelly
took his place, although strangely
enough he had been kept on the side
lines I'D to this time. Then Baird
was injured, and soon showing him
self to be unfit for play, was led off
the field weeping, Burke taking his
place.

team put additional life into yale

Before the largest crowd that ever wit

the University of Pennsylvania foot

and Jackson's 25yard run being the
only ones of moment. The playing was
fierce. but not unnecessarily vicious;
hard but clean. 1t was battle of the
giants, and by to-day's victory over
the crimson Pennsylvania has gained
the top round of the foot ball ladder
and holds undisputed possession.
