the exception of one date, which has
been held open for Harvard. Manager
Brady is securing the country for a
team to fill the date.
With Princeton a two-year agree
ment has been made whereby Cornell
will go to Princeton this year and the
Tigers Will play a return game in this
city in 1904. Inasmuch as the contest
was held at Princeton last fall is was
really Ithaca's turn this year. Cornell
was willing to make the concession,
however, in order to relieve Princeton
from two home games with Cornell and
Yale during the same season.
The Princeton management pointed
out that last years experience showed
that the interest taken by the Orange
and Black in the contest was consid-
erably reduced by the proximity of the
Yale game, which occurred two weeks
later.
By alternating these two contests.
Princeton can assure a large crowd at
each. Although the agreement covers
two years only it is expected to be
renewed at the end of that time.
