YALE'S VICTORY A SURPRISE.
NOT i RECORDED ERROR IN SEVEN INNINGS, THOUGH
BLUNDERS OF OMISSION WE'RE FREQUENT


Yale defeated Princeton At the Polo Grounds
yesterday and the result must be put down
one of the surprises Of the baseball season
Critics rated Princeton so much better than the
young team from New-HaVen that for once
there was practically betting on the result
The men from Old Nassau felt confident
about winning that they were content TO mass
in the grandstand and sing their college songs,

only lace high was heard Yale showed
steady hand, played it well. and in the end the
lace high won.
The game was started at the unusual and un-
seennly hour Of II a M, in order to have the
field clear for the playing of a double header
between two cheap professional teams at the
regular baseball hour in the afternoon. But the
college men did not seem to object for 1t was
practically their only chance TO see one Of the
big university games in this SCOT begrimed ISL

their favorite team, began the weary ride 70

Yale went first to the bat. and although Barn

batsman was retired as easily as Metcaf and
Wear had surrendered earlier. Princeton uld

the bat and took lead which looked to be safe
TO those who had seen the two teams play this
year. Steinwender sent TO first on calieu

SIDE LIGHTS OF THE GAME.

Immediately after the game the sorrowful
Princeton team met to perform its old time
custom of selecting a captain for next season
F. c. Pearson the first baseman who will be
remembered one of the halfbacks of the foot
ball team last year, was the unanimous choice
While there was little jostling and crowding,
the game was cleanly played as whole. Once
a Princeton man was pushed away from second,
and again Yale man was pushed in like man
ner but in each the baserunner was en-
titled to the right of way. Metcalf blocked
Brown at second base in the sixth inning, and
after few heated words the men went on. and
no further feeling shown.
Yale's persistent yelling in the second and
seventh innings seemed to have unnerved I'm
derhil. Twice he stopped when about to de-
liver the ball as if he intended to delay the
game until the shouting had ceased. Garvan
might have been made of iron for all the at
tention he appeared to take of the Princeton
cries
In the fourth inning young woman in the
grandstand created some amusement. With
Green at the bat in this inning foul went into
the air and fell back into the grandstand
thronged by spectators. young woman taste
fully attired in black calmly stood UP and
caught the ball and then tossed 1t back into the
field if nothing had happened. When the
applause grew deafening she blushed, of course.
There was considerable grumbilng by college
men over the way in which the game had been
managed No preliminary notices admission
tickets sent to some of the daily news
papers, and consequently people did not
know where or when the game to be played.
When the spectators reached the grounds they
found that the admission to the grandstand nad
been raised TO 81 30 and when they tried TO
purchase q cheap twO-page programme costing
possibly half cent to print, they were dis
gusted when compelled to pay % cents for such
card. The policy of the management of the
grounds seemed TO he that II caught college
men seldom that they should be struck hard
when caught Properly managed, 10000 or
15.OO0 people would have seen the game instead
