bucking.
There appeared to be considerable
teams throughout the game. There
were many mix ups wi,h the Prince
ton men the aggressors. Captain Pell
set bad example for his players by
continually slapping the Yale end and
tackle while in the lineup. Several
others of the Princeton forwards fol-
lowed the lead set by Pell, and as the
result the Orange and Blank eleven
were penalized three times.
For Yale, Bloomer, Chadwick, Hale,
Stillman and Fincke did the best Of
fensive work This quintet gained
nearly all the ground made by Yale
during the game. The work Of Shell
defense was brilliant.
Mills, Losey and Wright did the best
work for Princeton. Reiter, in whom
Princeton placed great hopes, failed
to advance the ball with any degree
of success; but Captain Pell was the
disappointment of the Princeton
eleven. He would dive into the Yale
bluff interference while the runner
would be going around the other side
of the line. He did not seem to be able
to follow the ball.

Princeton, N. J., November H.
Princeton wound up the most disas-

of the university this evening. losing
her annual game to Yale by the score
of 29 to 5. There was a crowd of 49,
900 present.
Never has any Orange and Black
eleven been so humiliated. Yale has
rolled up larger scores, but never has
she shown her superior strength in
such a marked degree as she did this
afternoon.
There was only one department Of
the game in which Princeton excelled.
that was in kicking. Maths, the
Princeton full-back, easily outpointed
Yale. To show Princeton's utter
weakness it is but necessary to say
that during the seventy minutes Of
play the Orange and Black made only
two first downs and these were within
ten minutes Of the close Of the game.
when Princeton took a temporary
brace.
The Tigers lines were beaten back,
battered down and trampled upon in
a manner that must have made hearts
of the loyal sons of old Nassau bleed
with sympathy.
Both teams fought desperately but
Yale's superior strength and better
physical condition enabled her to score
a comparatively easy victory. The
Tigers could make no impression on
Yale's line. II was a veritable Gibral-
tar.
The Princeton backs were frequently
downed before they could get under
way.
The two first downs made by the
Orange and Black were the result OF
end-runs, one on a dash by McClave
around Yale's left end for Is yards and
another by Reiter around the right end
for six yards. Princeton would prob
ably have done much better if she had
