The tiger stretched itself, surveyed the
crowd of bandaged athletes suspiciously
and then opened it, mouth wide and sent
out loud roar. The men rushed wildly
tiger meanwhile was quietly inspecting
it, new quarters and soon came fawning
up TO the scared football players. II made
a lot of friends quickly and this afternoon
it was thought best TO have the animal

the contest on Saturday. W. H. Barnard,
the old half back led it out on the field

was the signal for thunders of applause
from the undergraduates, and it became
frightened and baked. Barnard tried
to pull il along. but, crouching quickly,
II leaped like a flash over the fence into a

The tiger was brought back again and
put in he cage, which was carried to the

scored two touchdowns. The second was

again to-day in Barney's place. and Bradley

this combination will start the game No

that the eleven will 60 against Yale in the
