PLAYING sensational football this fall we're van

usual army OF ton thousand dcadheads covered
tho yisduct and the hill. Princeton had been
regarded MS n sure winner. SO that the result
was not un,vuocted But the fact that the In
dams were unabI to score a point caused som
surprise among the experts who saw the red
men beat tho University Of Pennsylvania and
run up ten POINTS against Harvard.
The reason Tor the iniiuns' failure to scors
was solely due to the remarkable defensive
tactic. OF tho Princeton rush limo. There was
only one period In tho game when the rsdmen
made any large gains in succession. and that
was in the second half after Princeton had
scored hcr last six IoInts. The Indians were
desperate at that stage. and knowing that II
was hardly possible for them to beat their way
entirely through Princeton's detenco to the
goal line they concluled TO carry the ball with
in such striking distance that their phenone-
nal goal Kicker Hudson, might send 1t over
the cross bar The plnn 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

than twelve points PrihCeton's best gains
were made around the ends. In the early part
OF the game the interference provided for tho
backs was excellent. II enabled Knight to
make 45-yard run around tho Indians
right end for Clean touchdown. But after
that the Indians had the hang OF Princeton's
formations and they proceeded to break up the
interfercncs in the most destructive fashion.
II was not until the Indians were pretty we'll
tagged out and they had lost the services OF
two OF their bost men. Pierce and Sieklcs. that
Princeton by constant limo buckins was able to
