Yale's Overwhelming defeat ut football yes

brilliant victory over Princeton n year ago.
Yale won then chiefly because her players were
in perfect physical condition.: she lost yesterday
chiefly because their physical condition was in
ferior. In one case there was some good luck,
but more good management in the other there

the most striking and valuable lesson Of the sea-
