The famous Carlisle Indians who have been
playing sensational football this fall were van
pushed at Columbia Fold yesterday afternoon
by the Princeton University eleven. the scores
being II to D after halves ~ twenty-five min
utes each. A crowd OF eight thousand persons
entered the gates to see the struggle. vhile the
usual army Of ten thousand dcadheads covered
tho yiaduct and the hill. Princeton had been
regarded ms n sure winner. SO that the result
was not unsSpocted. But the fact that the In
dams were unable 10 score point caused som
surprise among the experts who saw the red
men beat the University OF Pennsylvania and
run w ten points against Harvard.
The reason Tor the Indians failure to score
was solely due to the remarkable do,ensiys
tactics OF tho Princeton rush line. There was
only one Period In tho game when the rsdme
made any large gains In succession, and that
wns In the second half after Princeton had
scored hcr last six oints. The Indians were
desperate at that stage. and knowing that II
was hardly possible for them to beat their way
entirely through Princetons defence to the
goal line they conclulel TO carry the ball with
in such striking distance that their phenome-
nal goal Kicker. Hudson, might send 1t over
the cross bar The plhn was carried out to the
letter with the exception that Hudson missed
the goal. although he made pretty drop kick
and sent the bail wall toward the posts. The
trial was 1T ado from the 35-yard limo and was
the nearest the Indians came to escaping q
whtewnsh.
While tho 4 gers we're unmistnknbly power
ful in defence their attack was below the usual
standard. The coachers were greatly dlsap-

than twelve points, rrineeton's best gains
were made around the ends. In the early part
Of the game the interference provided for the
backs was excellent II enabled Knight to
make i5-yard run around tho Indians
right end for q Clean touchdown. But after
that the Indians had the hang OF Princeton's
formations and they proceeded to break up the
Interference in the most destructive fashion.
II was not until the indians were pretty we'll
tagged out and thoy had lost the services OF
two OF their best men. Pierce and Sieklcs. that
Princeton by constant line bucking was able to
score touchdown ir the second half. For that
matter this touchdown was partly duo to calling
In the services OF Hodgnan and Kafsr, two
fresh men. when tho ball had been carried
down to within twenty yards OF Carlisss goal
line Hodgman and Kaier had streug 9Th enough
10 hit the Indians line for tho necessary gains
and Hodgman was finally jamm ed over between
the rosts.
The Princeton backs were slow In starting
and though the rush limo made fairly good
holes for them they did not make tho distance
that was expected. Wheeler WAS outpunted
by big Wheeock. the Indians captain, whose
Kicks were high and long. thereby allowing
the ends plenty OF time to get under the ball.
while Wheeler's drives were in many instances
low and erratic. Had 1t not been for the
