PRINCETON, n. J., Oct. Capt.
Williamson Pen has given out the Of
fetal statement that it has been def
nitcly decided to play the Yale game n
Princeton as scheduled and not in New
York city An overwhelming sentiment
on the part Of undergraduates and alum
nj in favor Of playing on the home
grounds, is thought 10 be responsible
fCr putting an END to the effort to have
the game in New York Captain Pell
also stated that the new stands viii be
erected in ample time. fer the game
Princeton's first team yesterday kept
up the reputation for loose playing made
Monday. and the prospects for making
a good showing today in the opening
game with stevens are accordingly p1or.
The coaches resolved to give the mea
a rest after Mondays aisheartening
scrimmage and so the varsity and the
scrub did not meet in combat but eacn
team was coached separately on signal
practice and running through torma-
tions. This light practice was me grand
comedy OF errors. There was fumbling.
loss of interference. slow stars, and
general schoolboy tactics. Each man
seemed to be working on an independent
plan, or more properly, no plan.
The undergraduates are deeply inter-
ested in the opening game. aid are anx-
ious that Princeton shall make show
ing against the Stevens team which VIII
compare well with the shoWings made
by Yale and Harvard last Saturday
The varsity will in all probab l.ty line
up as follows: Left end. Roper; left
tackle Pell; left guard. Wright; centre.
Losey; right guard, Dana; right tackle.
McCord; right end, Little; quarter, Dun
can; right half. S. McClave or J. For
ney; left half, Levick or Hodgman; full
back Undernill or Maths.
PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 3-The fercest
kind of playing marked yesterday after
Moons game between Pennsylvania's var
sity and scrub teams Until yesterday the
regulars simply walked all over the sec
oHd eleven but this time they were sur
prised- Assistant Coach Kennedy acted as
the captain of the scrubs. who also had
the services of Hodge and Bennett on the
ends. Homer at centre and Bader at half
back.
The 'varsity's only score was made by
MacCracken. who dashed through the line
and caught the ball Just as Hodge was
about 10 kick ii. With clear field ahead
OF him, the big fullback easily made the
touchdown After that the wonderful work
of the halfbaeks. Kennedy &ld Bader. fin
ally sent the ball over the 'yiTsity's line.
Near the close of the play Gilmore, who
succeeded MacCracken. saved the day for
the regulars by scoring another touchdown.
Pennsylvania will play Franklin and Mar
shall tomorrow.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Oct. 3.-Yale plays
her second game Of the season today
against Amherst and should run up good
score.
The varsity will probably line up as it
did yesterday. Gould and Coy, ends: Still
man and Bloomer. tackles; Captain Brown
and Sheldon, guards; Olcott, centre;
Wear, quarterback; Sharpe and Cooke
halves; Hale, full-back-
Wear was played on the varsity in place
OF Fincke today. because of-the brilliant
work he has done on the defensive and in
running back punts. 1t will be fierce
battle to see who finally gets the position
of quarter back. On account of the heat
onIy one half was played by the varsity
anu the college. The varsity scored one
touchdown, principally to the good run
ming of Sharpe and Browns interference.
