Waterbury Democrat., 1900-11-16

To-day every hard part will be cut out of the work and the day will be given up to resting for the big struggle on Saturday. The players all have real ized the odds they have been working against this season, and they have done their best since the Columbia game to overcome them under the direction of one of the best squads of coaches that has ever been here. The students themselves do not know now just what their team can do, but they have great faith in what they have accomplished at the secret meetings which have been held so frequently this week. The team which Princeton will put in the field will be the lightest that has worn the orange and black for several years. It will average to the man not more than 174 pounds, whereas Yale's play CTS will average 1S0 pounds or more. The Tigers line will tip the scales at about IFS pounds on the average. Losey. at center is the heaviest, weighing 2OG pounds. Princeton's guards are veritable pygmies com pared with the big fellows who will play for the Blue. In addition, the Princeton eleven is the youngest that has represented the New Jersey col lege in recent years. The men on the d tt'L'' OAN'' half back. is the oldest, 2G; Captain Pell is said to be the youngest leader that "Old Nassau has ever had; he is only 19.
 New Haven, Nov 16.-There was more secret practice of the Yale eleven yesterday afternoon. The crowd of spectat tors who waited patiently at the gates saw nothing of the last practice of the team that was worth seeing. Just what happened in the secret prac- tice is not known. Late last evening the final makeup of the eleven for Saturdays game was mapped out. 1t is: Right end, Coy or Rafferty: right tackle, Stillman: right guard, Sheldon; center, Olcott; left guard, Brown; left tackle. Boomer; left end. Gould: quar- ter, Wear: right half back, Chadwick; left half back. Fincke; full back, Hale. This is the same team that faced the Indians with the exception of Hale. In the Carlisle game Dupee played full back The first substitutes on Satur- day will be: Center, Holt; guard, Richardson: tackle, Hamlin; end. Raf- ferty; quarter, Fincke; half backs, Cook and Sharpe; full back, Dupee. The team will start for Princeton at o'clock this afternoon and will spend the night at the Murray Hill hotel in New York. The wearers of the blue stocking will not go down to the den of the Tiger until 10 o'clock Saturday morning. Between thirty-fiye and forty players will compose the team. Mike Murphy says that every man, regular players and substitutes in- cluded. is fit to play his best game. The leaving out of Al Sharpe is not much of q surprise. Every since the Indian game the students have been for Chadwick and Fincke as half backs. The chances favor Coy for right end. but the coaches refuse to decide this position until Saturday morning. There is no doubt Rafferty would have secured the place had Yale had competent coaches to teach him the game Yale will only send 1.560 rooters to the Princeton game. The rush is all for the Harvard game next week. There is q good deal of criti- cism here of the statement issued by the Princeton faculty about the eli9i- bility of Reiter and Young. The Yale manager received q letter from the Princeton manager early in October about the eligibility of these players for the Yale game. As Yale has no agreement with Princeton about such cases Yale made no objection to Reiter
